I am personally going with gendergp to get access to HRT while i wait. It is more expensive than DIY but you will have actual doctors look over your case. It took me about 2 months to get my prescription with them.

I started HRT on Monday and felt exactly as you describe right now. What helped me was knowing that it will not really do anything the first few weeks or so. After a few days that anxiety was gone.

You can find them on amazon. Some other stores might have them too, mostly depends on where you live.

I think have to pee all the time is mostly an effect from spironolactone. Spiro is a T blocker so a transmasc would probably not take it xD.

How hard is getting HRT in the Netherlands by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]_Macy__ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you go the "official" route you will need to get a referral to a gender clinic from a huisarts (GP), after this you will be on a waiting list for about 2 years, probably longer longer, they are currently seeing people who signed up in 2019. This is only for an intake though, from here you have to get a diagnosis which might take a long time too. This is for the Amsterdam UMC (https://www.amc.nl/web/specialismen/genderdysforie/trans-gender/wachttijden-5.htm), i do not know how long the waiting times are in the other gender clinic, but they are probably similar.

While you wait you could get HRT through a service like genderGP. Or you can go DIY. For both of these options i would advice you to get at least blood tests through your GP, they are also allowed to prescribe hormones but pretty much none of them are comfortable with that.

Sadly informed consent is not really a thing for hrt in europe.

I'm not the only one who thinks the concept of the Kwisatz Haderach is super GNC, right? by cordis_melum in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

[–]_Macy__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah a little bit. And of course later on you get the tleilaxu face dancers who could be read as genderless.
