I have been on an estrogen patch for 20 yrs. My local pharmacy just told me there is a nation wide shortage. WTF? The #U becomes more of a #FailedState daily. Anybody know the reason for the shortage?!

Examination of 47 mothers and their newborns found that higher maternal estrogen in the first trimester was associated with greater head circumference of the newborn. The effect was stronger for male than female babies.

#CrohnsDisease is associated with NOD2 mutations, but what's NOD2's role in the #intestine? Mckenna Eklund & Edan Foley show that #NOD2 interacts with #estrogen to regulate intestinal homeostasis, perhaps explaining the sex-specific pathogenesis of CD @PLOSBiology https://plos.io/4ojTEuZ

Today is 10 years to the day since I took my first #HRT

To celebrate, I coordinated with the calendar when I first switched to injections so I'd have one today :)

This year has a lot of "it's been an entire decade since" moments for my #transition

Newer readers of #MissKitty maybe found me in #AI #research. They'll be more. Been reading how to exploit #antipolitics in #AI. Sure I can pull it off. I know how to tape things together. But I might only be qualified for cat pictures today. 😹😹😹 First shot of #estrogen in 3 weeks. I'm peaceful. LOL.

#Estrogen in both the male and female brain shapes responses to #trauma. In the hippocampus, where you have local production of estrogen, sometimes males are higher than females depending on the female's cycling. #PTSD

A mouse study found that higher estrogen levels in the hippocampus reduce memory consolidation following acute traumatic events. Male mice and female mice in proestrus, which have comparable hippocampal estrogen, were similarly affected, but female mice in estrus, with low estrogen, did not suffer stress-related memory problems.

Low testosterone levels can cause fatigue and low energy levels in both men and women.

I support #standardization of #medical #licensing for #providers and #facilities (#doctors' #offices, #hospitals, #longtermCare, etc.).

I oppose government intrusion into the provider #patient #relationship.

If a #woman is using #estrogen patches, it's none of your business why.

Same for a #man using #testosterone. If he's trying to #cheat at #sports, the #league can manage it.

#Rogaine and #Viagra are gender-affiriming care.

#PSA for young #MTF #Transwomen getting #Estrogen / #Estradiol via pills...

I don't recommend pills over Patches or Injections, but if you take them, you need to let them dissolve under your tongue: do not swallow them whole. You want estradiol solutes in your mouth/esophagus that your flesh will absorb directly with the water, not to go through your digestive system which will either break it down or filter it out.

Again, most people who've been doing this a while recommend Injections or Patches over pills, simply because those have easier and better absorbtion.
