💉 HRT ANNOUNCEMENT 💉

YOU NEED TO ASPIRATE BEFORE INJECTING.

I’ve known many individuals who were never told by medical professionals to aspirate, which is unacceptable on behalf of endocrinology. This is an extremely important step because if you accidentally inject into a vein, you can literally die.

“I’ve never aspirated and I’ve been fine” until you’re not.  “My doctor never told me to aspirate” because trans healthcare has yet to be standardized and is a work in progress. “The area I inject in has little to no blood vessels” but there are so many people who don’t know which areas are safest and it’s better to be safe than sorry.

How To Aspirate: Stick yourself with the needle and then draw back on the syringe. If your syringe fills with blood, you need to reposition your needle. If it doesn’t fill with blood, you’re safe to inject there.

Signs that you’ve injected into a vein: — Stroke — Shortness of breath — Coughing — Chest and/or abdominal pain — Low Oxygen — Blood clots — Slurred speech — Headache — Swelling — Tenderness

Literally just aspirate because it takes 2 seconds and can save your life.

Please share this post so that this practice becomes more common!

This is extremely important, I personally know several people who were never told this and had pretty dangerous experiences because of it.

I’ve never even heard of this so it needs to be spread!!

I had no idea people WEREN’T taught this. My endocrinologist was very VERY clear on the fact that aspirating is VERY necessary, and what could happen if I chose not to. I hate that this post even has to exist, because people are clearly not being taught how to do it correctly. I’m glad that it exists for the people who need it, but I hate that it’s even a thing that needs to be shared. This is a very serious issue.

The Avatar series could potentially make 2 more shows after Legend of Korra with an earth nation avatar and a fire nation avatar and I for one would not protest.

Avatar could come full circle and do another show about the next Air Nomad Avatar (someone who was different from Aang) and even another one about the next Water Tribe Avatar and so on and so forth and I would not protest. 

Avatar could do another show about another Avatar centuries before ATLA or another avatar thousands of years after and go out of order and tell any story in any era they want and I would not protest.

Avatar could make literally any other show about the avatar universe and I would not protest.

Avatar could make a show about the cabbage salesman and I would not protest.

Avatar could make a show about the cabbage salesman and I would cheer.

All of these stories of CEOs cutting their salary to pay employees are supposed to be feel-good stories, but if cutting one salary is all it takes to pay all of them, there’s something wrong.

Staying home can be hard no matter what, but it’s going to be even harder if you don’t give yourself a break. You’re doing the best you can, and you deserve to treat yourself with the same kindness you treat your best friend.
