lol “HRT slightly increases the risk of certain cancers” HRT could have caused me to guaranteed drop dead at 30 and it still would have gotten me eight more years than I would otherwise have had
”testosterone raises ur chances of heart problems” i already have heart problems bucko. give me the juice
"HRT will raise your chances of breast cancer"
me: "oh my. how much more likely will i be to get breast cancer than a cis woman?"
"slightly less likely. it's just you'll have breasts."
me: "you don't say. i'll take your whole stock"
--actual conversations with my endocrinologist
A lot of the problems hrt gives you are just problems that cis people with that hormone also have. You’re more likely to have heart problems on T because testosterone makes your blood thick sometimes. You’re more likely to have breast cancer on E because you get more breast tissue. Tbh if I’m gonna have health problems anyways I’d rather have man health problems.
