TrionaA question that comes up a bunch in trans circles, should I take progesterone and why?Generally, I suggest people try it and see how it goes. While most people are interested because of potential effects on breast growth, it's actually it's mental health benefits that are the main reason I would suggest it.Some of the main metabolites of progesterone are anxiolytics (ie have an anti anxiety effect) and they also improve your sleep quality. The do this by increasing the impact of GABA in your brain.For dosage I would suggest 100mg at night with dinner and 100mg in the morning with breakfast. swallowed not boofed (ie not as a suppository). As it has a short half-life spacing out the dosing helps with maintaining levels, and this is a common dosage for cis menopausal women.Taking it in the morning doesn't make you sleepy because your GABA is normally lower in the morning and higher at night, and so works stronger in the evening because of that.Taking it with food is also a good idea because it increases the absorption and serum levels according to the studies that have been done.HOWEVER For a small number of people can can do the reverse, and cause insomnia and irritability because of GABA dysfunction, these people will have similar issues with benzos. According to papers on benzos that have reverse reaction it is likely to be less than 1% of people. The effect will last less than 24 hours because of it's short half-life, stop taking it if you find yourself struggling to sleep instead of sleeping better.This is ignoring all the other stuff it does like other changes to neurotransmitters, reduction inflammation immune reactions, stronger bones, potential breast growth. Where we are less clear exactly on the details of how important these things are for trans people or how much progesterone is needed for them.<a href="https://cathode.church/tags/trans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#trans</a> <a href="https://cathode.church/tags/hrt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hrt</a> <a href="https://cathode.church/tags/transhrt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#transhrt</a>

SleepyCattenHey folks :TransHeart: As you're almost-certainly already aware, access to GAHT is increasingly being restricted, being outright banned, or otherwise unavailableb to many trans+ people under 18 in many places across the world 😔For example, the UK had already <a href="https://cultofshiv.wtf/@SleepyCatten/113029798717883594" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">banned new prescriptions of GnRH agonists (a type of puberty blocker) for any trans+ person under 18</a>, and is now genuinely considering banning all private GAHT prescriptions too 🤬GAHT is literally lifesaving medication for many trans+ people :BlahajHuggingTransHeart:Without it, many trans+ people under 18 will struggle even more with mental health, and many will not make it to adulthood 😭If you are a trans+ person under 18, or are a supportive family member or friend of someone who is, please start to make contingency plans now for the worst-case scenarios 🥺We highly recommend bookmarking the below website and making copies of all relevant info and links in case it gets taken down: <ul><li><a href="https://hrt4all.com/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://hrt4all.com/</a></li></ul>If you're 18+ or soon will be, please also do the same for these: <ul><li><a href="https://diyhrt.info/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://diyhrt.info/</a></li><li><a href="https://hrtcafe.net/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://hrtcafe.net/</a></li></ul>We all need to prepare now, before it's too late 🥺😞Enough lives have already been lost.

lianna🇩🇪 Heute war ich das erste Mal Blut spenden!🩸Das heißt auch, dass ich heute endlich die Fragen, die ich zum trans bzw. nichtbinär-Sein, zu ADHS-Medikamenten und zur Hormontherapie in Zusammenhang mit Blutspenden hatte, beantworten konnte:<ol><li>Geschlecht und HRT</li></ol>Frauen können hier vier-, Männer sechsmal im Jahr Blut spenden. Weil ich amtlich 'divers' und seit Jahren auf einer Hormonersatztherapie bin, wussten die Leute bei der Blutspende erstmal nichts mit mir anzufangen.Die haben sich aber jedenfalls an meiner statt über die veralteten Systeme und Protokolle aufgeregt – die ganzen Computer waren noch auf Windows XP oder noch älter, und die Software hatte halt nur 'männlich' und 'weiblich' als Optionen.Am Ende haben sie sich darauf geeinigt, dass ich wegen meiner Langzeit-Hormontherapie tendenziell eher 'biologisch weiblich' als 'biologisch männlich' sei, und dass sie mich einfach als weiblich führen würden.[Das fand' ich ein bisschen lustig. Ich kann mir nur vorstellen, wie transphobe Leute darauf reagieren würden, dass ich von medizinischem Fachpersonal als biologisch/körperlich weiblich eingestuft wurde.]Die Hormontherapie war übrigens auch absolut kein Problem. Ich hatte ursprünglich sogar die 'Transsexualität' als Vorerkrankung eingetragen, weil es ja eine Diagnose war, aber da hat mir der Arzt gesagt, das solle ich nicht machen, weil trans zu sein keine Krankheit sondern einfach ein Zustand sei. Fand ich süß.<ol><li>ADHS-Medikamente</li></ol>Das Lisdexamfetamin (Elvanse) war ebenfalls absolut kein Problem. Die haben sich viel eher für blutverändernde Medikamente wie z. B. Blutverdünner und für sowas wie illegale Drogen interessiert.Die wollen Risiken minimieren; Leute die illegale Drogen nehmen haben im Vergleich zu Rezeptpatient:innen halt tendenziell ein größeres Risiko, unsaubere Spritzen zu verwenden, oder auch einfach unbekannte oder gefährliche Substanzen genommen zu haben, wenn z. B. deren Drogen gestreckt wurden.Dasselbe mit Sexualität: seit 2023 fragen die nicht mehr nach der Orientierung. Ich 'durfte' bis zu zwei Sexualpartner:innen in den letzten vier Monaten gehabt haben (oder bis zu einer/einem im Bereich Analverkehr), und das war es eigentlich. Es wurden keine Fragen zur Orientierung gestellt.Hoffe, das hilft jemandem!<a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/lisdexamfetamin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Lisdexamfetamin</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/elvanse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Elvanse</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/blutspende" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Blutspende</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/blutspenden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Blutspenden</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/medizin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Medizin</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/gesundheit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Gesundheit</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/adhs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ADHS</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/trans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trans</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/hrt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HRT</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/transgender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Transgender</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/queer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Queer</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/deutsch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Deutsch</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/deutschland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Deutschland</a>

lianna🇬🇧 Today I went to donate blood for the first time! 🩸That also means I received an answer to most of my questions about donating blood while genderqueer, on HRT and ADHD medication in Germany.<ol><li>Gender, Sex, HRT</li></ol>Women can donate four, men can donate six times a year over here. Since I officially carry the 'third gender' of my country and I've been on HRT for several years, they didn't initially know what to do with me.They expressed sympathies with me on how aged and outdated their systems and protocols were – most of them were still on Windows XP or older and the software only featured 'male' and 'female' options.They came to the conclusion that due to my long-term hormone replacement therapy, I was nowadays closer to 'biologically female' than 'biologically male', and that they'd keep me in their systems as female.[This was somewhat funny to me. I can only imagine what a transphobe would think about the idea of medical personnel determining me as biologically female.]Hormones were also no issue whatsoever, and the doctor told me that my 'transsexuality' that I initially put into 'pre-existing conditions' is not a medical condition but just a facet of life and therefore should not be listed there.<ol><li>ADHD medication</li></ol>Taking Lisdexamfetamine (Elvanse/Vyvanse) was not an issue whatsoever. They're mostly looking out for blood-altering medication such as blood thinners, and illegal drugs.They're trying to minimise risks, and people who take illegal drugs are way more likely to use unsanitary syringes or even unknowingly consume unknown or dangerous substances that may linger in the blood due to consuming laced drugs.Same thing with sex: since 2023, they don't ask for sexuality anymore. Instead, I was allowed to have 'up to and including 2' sexual partners within the past four months, or 'up to 1' sexual partner with who I practised anal. No questions about sexual orientation appeared.Hope this helps someone!<a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/lisdexamfetamine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Lisdexamfetamine</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/blooddonation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BloodDonation</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/donateblood" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DonateBlood</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/donatingblood" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DonatingBlood</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/medicine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Medicine</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/health" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Health</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/adhd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ADHD</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/trans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trans</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/hrt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HRT</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/transgender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Transgender</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/queer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Queer</a> <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/germany" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Germany</a>
