  • I concur. Furthermore I will note that 2.4 mg estradiol valerate IM is below the dose range for the indication of MtF transitioning, and the frequency should be every two weeks instead of weekly (though admittedly 4.8 mg per 2 weeks is almost there, and weekly vs biweekly dosing probably doesn’t matter all that much, but I trust the source). I’ve posted the dosing recommendations for you in the image below. It is from a source called Lexicomp, which is unfortunately paywalled (I have access via my uni). Lexicomp cites this article which is also unfortunately paywalled. I suppose you’ll just have to trust me, though I will add the necessary disclaimer that this is not medical advice and I accept no responsibility for your use of this medication, and the information provided is solely for the purpose of harm-reduction.


  • Someone please correct me if I’m wrong, but does Sync seriously charge to remove ads that they added to browsing Lemmy in the first place? I get charging for Reddit due to the API, but I have a hard time believing the app is that much better than the existing FOSS apps such that the privacy tradeoff with ad trackers and/or the monetary cost worth it for, well, anyone really. Seems kinda scummy and antithetical to the philosophy that drives much of the Fediverse to me, yet I see so many people defending it in a way that reminds me of the rhetoric used to defend Reddit. Seriously, am I just a crazy person?
