Summary

Transgender Americans are stockpiling hormones and researching DIY solutions amid fears that President-elect Trump may restrict gender-affirming healthcare, as he pledged during his campaign.

Online communities are sharing resources, with some turning to nontraditional sources or synthesizing hormones despite risks like inconsistent dosages and legal consequences.

Advocacy groups are offering legal support for those self-managing care, while healthcare providers emphasize that access remains unchanged for now.

The World Health Organization has called for expanding self-care guidelines to include gender-affirming therapy, reflecting a growing global conversation on healthcare access disparities.

    I have the same info. Straight from the nurses mouth, buy new clean needles, you can reuse the bottle lots.

    Replacing the needle tip with a new one after loading the syringe also keeps the needle very sharp for the shot.
