   i have updated the old WHY PROGESTERONE doc

   https://docs.google.com/document/d/1OGiomfiMk18nPb3ITKZD9pWPvWRUlyI06enxahQpHBI/edit?tab=t.0

   to now include a small section at the bottom with the PROG POLL conducted on the fediverse in 2023.

   its of course completely anedoctal but in lieu of any actual desire of scientists to conduct any real scientific studies on transfems taking progesterone, i felt its inclusion was overall more beneficial to those considering prog as an option in their regimen

     as i think i commented on the original thread, the most interesting result of the polls to me was the clear lack of decrease in sex drive reported across all three groups.

     when i first started posting about progesterone for transfeminine HRT, one of the most common counter theoies given against taking it was that it would be more likely to decrease sex drive due to its anti-androgenic effects and potential for negative mental health reaction.

     also octodon is shutting down shortly as a fediverse server so i wanted to make sure i put it somewhere safe - even if it is just anecdotal polling.
