How do you do, fellow ladies?

If all goes as planned, I’ll be starting HRT in just a few weeks (😁). Does anyone have any practical tips on things to do or procure in advance? So far, all I’ve managed to deduce from wandering the internet is:

  • cryopreservation of sperm
  • find and secure a bralette that fits comfortably, by the time things get tender
  • stock up on pickles

Anything else I’ll likely be happy to have prepped in advance?

Note: flagged this as NSFW to encourage open conversation, and in case mere mention of sperm warrants it.

    Thank you, this is all great. I’m definitely going to be exploring all aspects of transition to find out what sticks. This post was meant more for things that might otherwise catch me by surprise, directly from the hormones.

    I really like that idea about tracking statistics and checking levels. Do you know a good resource for understanding what metrics to track in terms of hormones, and what levels I should be looking for and at what times? Suggestions on which specific measurements are best to track the effects on my body over time are also welcome. Hoping to hit a sweet spot where I’m not leaving out anything meaningful, but also not going overboard.
