Maybe we can avoid osteoporosis by taking breaks from our altered state of hormones, allowing bones to recover a little before ending the break, im not sure how hair would be affected by this but, after we reach NW0 and then start taking breaks, it could solve the issue of possible osteoporosis. i don't know if its a good or bad idea, but it's an idea.
wether its estrogen or testosterone it shouldn't make a difference in bone density unless the dosage is low. if you go without either your'e bones will become weaker

its true that most who get blood clots are obese or smokers
also being tall seems to increase blood clotting for some stupid reason; that is about every inch in height increases the blood's tendency to clot

I think females who want to transition into males need to have a proper clarification of what it’s going to do to their body. I think before they transition, they should have to go through significant amounts of processes before starting T since it has more drastic changes on the body compared to E.

being tall also includes a higher cancer risk because more cell divisions.

but you should probably relax a bit about the blood clots. Everything has risks; testosterone has risks, having low sex hormones has risks, estrogen has risks.. theres no hormonal state which doesn't put you totally risk free for something terrible.. But I believe high E is overall the safest of the 3 options all things considered.

and honestly I'm not totally convinced that estradiol significantly raises risk of blood clots If it is not taken orally. we have to keep in mind that so much data on estrogen all gets lumped together with synthetic versions, older women taking HRT with progestins; a word which implies synthetic versions of progesterone are included, and finally the different routes of administration.

consider the fact that ethynl estradiol is wayy more risky in terms of blod clots than bioidentical E, and yet millions of women take it in birth control.

also oral E goes straight to the liver and the way which it is metabolized induces the liver to release clotting factors. . Its like the difference between eating a piece of fruit with the fiber and antioxidants included and drinking a can of soda.

I could be wrong but I'm willing to bet that if you took a moderate dose of estradiol topically, buccally or through injection and ~stay thin, ~don't smoke, ~go for a walk everyday, then you'll be fine.

your other options to be androgenic and possibly go bald, get prostate cancer and heart disease

or

go eunuch style and get osteoporosis, hot flashes and brain fog.

depending on individual opinion, testicular atrophy and the chance of permanent infertility is pretty drastic lol..

but some would actually see that as a good thing, so overall for most testosterone therapy is indeed more drastic to the body cause it contains risk of masculine features that even masculine identifying people don't want to have; like f*****g baldness.. not even the manliest man is happy to be bald. or get f*****g acne and decreased lifespan..

but on the other side of the spectrum the girliest girl would be glad to recieve all the feminine features which estrogen and/or lack of androgens give.. except periods if you count that.

Curious about it. It's safe in a long term use ? It cannot make the skin thinner or something like that ?
I certainly wouldn't use it everyday or forever. yes it can make the skin thinner and potentially give all kinds of side effects.
How to you apply on the skin ? Because now you have hair ... or only on the sides ?
I only put on the parts of temples which have hairs not thick enough to block the scalp too much

How often ?
3 days a week; Monday, Wednesday and Friday

we still have it better than mtf and ftm, we wont age because we are guys with softer features, and we do not get stinky periods or painful pregnancy plus we gotta keep our hair for a long time, without crashing into menopause or andropause

Other than infertility and gynecomastia, that’s not bad as potentially irreversible baldness and a permanently deep voice. At the end of the day, gynecomastia can be removed without much risks and children can be adopted. Unlike voice surgery which has such a significant potential to cause permanent damage... Just imagine regretting your choice to transition and being stuck with a deep man voice :eek:
