Lol, because scripts for estrogen are so easy to come by as a man.
Honestly, its not that hard to get a legit prescription in some places. I just had a short online appointment to get mine, which I scheduled the night before (I also did have to get bloodwork, but that was for the spiro, not the E). I did clicked a box when I signed up for the appointment saying I was an NB, so maybe a man would have to click something other than man to get the prescription?
Might even have been easier than getting it diy.
I don’t want to get too deep in the weeds here but there are a few things that we have to work around, chief problem being the story’s narrator saying they didn’t know what estrogen would do (it occurs to me it could be a tongue in cheek post by a trans person for lols? “Oh, look, I grew boobs! How’d that happen?” Dunno. Anyway…), then expend the effort to find a way to get them and take the estrogen…because? I mean sure, there’s always someone to find a way around getting something they maybe shouldn’t, but I kinda hit a hard stop when someone says they regularly took pills and they didn’t know what the result would be. Ymmv.
I’m sure its just a “still cis tho” joke.
But was pretty surprised when my mom asked me like a year into me taking HRT if I knew HRT would change my body shape the way it did as if she had just learned about it and thought I would be surprised by the effects? Like… what did she think HRT was for? Since then, she’s seem a lot more interested taking T though.
DIY
Bit of a leap to assume that rather than just some shady “order your overseas meds online” site. Also, that really doesn’t go with the whole “I had no idea that estrogen would do this to me” thing.
That’s often how diy works, yes
Don’t you hate it when you accidentally spend a year on E?
They sure are, I bet the fake and gay anon got it from his favorite cereal enriched with 100g of estrogen!
Hmmm yes, average “straight” “male” on 4chan
Fake and gay
I want to know how the fuck you “absent-mindedly” get your hands on estrogen because there are some trans friends of mine who’ve had massive issues with sourcing it.
Where I’m at, a lot of the weed dealers have shifted to E post-legalization. You love to see it
To me this falls in the yes it’s a neat thing, no it’s depressing that it has to be done this way.
I’m pretty sure they’re joking. E is slang for ecstasy, not estrogen.
Porque no los dos?
Lmao. Oh. 😂
But also yeah I have had someone offer to go in on a bulk purchase of E with me before. It was even in a weed circle with people I barely knew
Absent-minded =/= accidentally
Fair point but I’m still confused how one could happen to have E lying around the place absent-mindedly.
I intentionally got an E prescription, but by the time the prescription was filled, dissociation made me feel like I was just a different person again and I was numb to the idea of taking them, so I was just taking it because the previous me thought I should. So I took it absentmindedly for a little bit (but that was only like days, not months).
Anyways, its 4chan, so obviously its fake and gay™.
Vanuatan pharmacies that deliver globally. In a lot of countries estrogen is gray market
Could you perhaps link to these? For research purposes ofc
Search inhousepharmacy. Here’s a list of places I found but haven’t vetted. Worst case here’s a diy approach I’ve never tried.
Legal disclaimer: diy hrt is always less safe than monitored and the legality varies. Back in my day back in my country you wouldn’t get in trouble. Develop your risk profile before checking to see if your course of actions fits within it. I’d hate to get someone v coded. Also I’ve never done diy, I got the letter of recommendation from a therapist a decade ago.
“Absentmindedly…”
Forcefemmed by their own subconscious…
Then it’d: “Subconsciously.”
C? In a year😭 no fair
It’s the
I’m a boy with C cups.
that ruins the immersion. I can read the 5 sentences as satire, but right there is when the satire dies.
female pronouns
boy noun /bɔɪ/ /bɔɪ/ [countable] a male child or a young male person@Washedupcynic@lemmy.ca satire reply, or another live one, you decide.
Don’t go dragging me into your online arguments.
However, if you read every word, specifically, absentminded, it doesn’t sound like the person that wrote this is trans or was taking estrogen with the intent of transitioning; I’m speculating and making inferences. (How the fuck someone absentmindedly takes a drug lends itself to the theory that the original author didn’t have a doctor’s prescription for it, but again, I am speculating.)
But yeah, there is nothing stopping someone that identifies as male from using estrogen. The author could have been taking something like spironolactone, which is an anti-androgen drug used to treat acne, which has a minor estrogen effect.
You don’t have to be female or identify as female to be taking estrogen/estrogen like medications.

🫡 I figured you wanted a laugh at this thread+response (jovial @), not to argue whatsoever. I apologize if it read this way🙇♀️. Will keep it in mind next time.🫡
The thing I am point out is that “boy” isn’t a pronoun, but, as Oxford dictionary states, a noun.
If
Entertainmeonlyis genuinely asking me why this baitshot📸 ruined our satirical setup, I pressume e would have worded the question differently. I am asking you how much of es post do you believeEntertainmeonlywas genuine, ignorant, or digressive?You don’t have to be female or identify as female to be taking estrogen/estrogen like medications.
Avow, respect, and honor.🙂↕️
Nowhere in this entire thread have pronouns been discussed until you brought them. Everything else you just wrote reads like fascist dogwhistles.
I, like most of us in this community are capable of reading something satirical. The 4trans poster failed miserably to engage us in satirizing our struggles to acquire gender care we need. I’m sorry No. 34288121 didn’t make us laugh, but I am not so sure why you brought pronouns to an inclusive intersecting community prouder to oblige.

Boy isn’t a pronoun
Same as transmasc people do - mastectomy
What is 4trans? Explain like I’m 5.Nvm: it’s just trans 4channers
