     @nyx @kyouu also you may not like this but i definitely notice that nicotine especially in higher doses is kinda crippling. unstable mood, lack of drive/energy

     @mia @kyouu idk I was on it for a month orally and mentally it seemed like it just made me really emotionally unstable lmao but that might have been due to other factors in my life at the time

     @nyx @kyouu main benefits of prog (+metabolites) are neurological. other than that it doesn’t seem to do all that much in transfem hrt. think it’s worth it though. if nothing else it drastically reduces alzheimer risk and helps a lot with stroke recovery (mostly via allopregnanolone)
     
     not sure whether going through first-pass metabolism is better or worse; available lecture indicates that oral leads to good levels of allopregnanolone (which really seems to be the most interesting metabolite), so i’m inclined to prefer that
     
     if you dose high enough that way you also get a very pleasant high. it’s potentiated by methylphenidate for me but that may just be my weird ADD brain (in contrast, opioids generally cause mania for me)

     @nyx I mean I'm not aware if anyone is selling them at the moment, you'll probably have to do that if you wanna try it

     @kyouu I would want to do it myself anyways. half the reason I for a long time had no interest in prog was because I wasn't aware of a way of taking it that I could realistically make myself. you can buy the powder but making a capsule is kind of annoying and idk how they make the prog gel stuff that is in the capsules. but then I found out recently that buying powder is super easy and also was like wait why does no one ever talk about doing it nasally
     
     I'm prog-skeptical but if I can access it easily and cheaply without a prescription and make it myself I'll try it
