I’m looking into starting DIY, I really just can’t wait any longer. However, I am absolutely terrified of needles. I won’t be able to shoot myself up with it. I’m looking into the forms of estrogen, and it appears that I can buy the form used for estradiol pills. But I’m finding very little information on DIY that isn’t focused on injections. I’m thinking about making a water solution and just taking it out of a dropper, but I know I’d need a preservative to keep it safe for a long time.
I feel like the gel residue gets fucking everywhere if you don’t put a bandage over it. And even then it still can.
I use gel every day that I’m prescribed and in my experience it’s not like that. it’s a little cumbersome at first but you get very adept at applying it and it completely dries within 5 minutes and won’t get on clothes or anything.
maybe you got a different brand than me, that sounds very convenient
possibly, those issues do sound annoying. for me it was actually much more convenient than I had expected going in. I’d still rather be on injections but they’re not available in my country so gel is more or less the next best option. I know the twice-a-week patches are up there too in terms of efficacy.
your gel is every day right? thats what mine was like
yeah 3 pumps/day
