That thread on that post surprised me.

How many CIS men here use testosterone for gender affirming care ?

Haven't, wouldn't unless I actually had low T.

People don't talk about body dysphoria for men and it shows.

I don't. Don't know anyone who uses it, but I'm not American

Yeah, been on TRT(high replacement dose) for almost 2 years. Though not specifically for gender affirming care, even though getting more out of my training and dieting is rather good, but a lack of stereotypical male libido did play a role in seeking out medical intervention.

Mostly on TRT as a crutch in countering the damage that decade+ of rotating shift work has done to any natural hormone and circadian rhythms. Sadly it didn't have much effect on libido.

I use other supplements, as I try to find food to boost it. Being a straight partially Khazarian male myself (so I speculate), we're actually really bad at taking care of ourselves except if our brethren advise us to do so.
