You got this. Just keep in mind what your future has in store for you to give you the courage.
Also, if you have Amazon Prime, you can use their Pharmacy service to just have it sent to your door. It’s what I do cause all my local pharmacies are the worst.
already went there once (twice, technically) with no problems. pharmacy actually got recommended to me by a trans masc guy i know. still, kind of nerve wrecking to waltz up to a stranger asking for E
I got judged in the past whenever I would pick up my HRT, hence why I personally switched to Amazon. I wish we had a kind pharmacy around here. Then again if my earlier experience is anything to go by, maybe they’ll just think I’m on birth control now. Might be worth it to get that sweet sweet 10mg/mL estradiol that doesn’t take 20 years to draw in my 23g needle.
Never wanted to give people a chance. Hadn’t used Amazon pharmacy before, but decided to try to for HRT. If I wanted to stick will pills, primerx does include estradiol in the $5/month subscription (not sure what dosage it covers though). But my impression is injections are safer long-term and more effective, so probably not that helpful.
i’ve never had issues with the suburban (red state) grocery store pharmacies i’ve gone to, if that makes you feel any better. i still get a bit of anxiety every time but it’s become v routine
got to go back to the pharmacy to ask for more estrogen again this week
. not looking forward to that one
