Not half bad for a 36 year old right?

Woah! Is that @kaylasartwork , @bubbleverseart , AND @nyxisart ? What is this, a New Years crossover episode? (Seriously, though. Thank you all for participating, your art is wonderful and getting to know y’all this winter has been delightful.)

It’s going to be a good year, 2025. And it’s going to be good because the queer community, all of us, are there for each other. Every single one of us is badass alone, and together we can weather anything.

btw, as someone with hypermobile ehlers-danlos who self-injects HRT, i wanted to take the time to recommend liquid bandage to anyone else with hEDS and any other conditions that cause one to have easily damaged skin!

i use the Walmart brand but it is the same as this one here! they generally contain antiseptic as well, so it helps sterilize the injection site as well! i've included the back of the package to show the active ingredients, make sure you check just to be safe if you have allergies to certain medications. it peels off super easy, i never notice when it comes off, whereas with latex and fabric bandages, it would pull and tear my skin too much, to the point where it would cause bleeding. this does the trick with no pain or skin damage!

Benefits and Risks: Weighing the Decision to Start HRT

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a treatment that helps women going through menopause. It gives back the female hormones, like oestrogen and progesterone, which become lower during menopause. These hormones are essential for the body, and when they drop, they can cause problems like hot flashes, mood swings, and vaginal dryness.

HRT aims to bring those hormone levels back up, making many women feel better and relieving their symptoms.

Many women talk and think about something called Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) when they’re getting close to menopause. It’s like a medical choice. People look at the good things it might do and the not-so-good things it might do, and they decide if it’s worth it. 

Whether you’re just learning about HRT for women or thinking about doing it, knowing the good and not-so-good parts to choose what’s best for your health is essential.

The Benefits of HRT for Women

Relief from Menopause Symptoms:

One of the most compelling reasons women rely on HRT is to reduce bothersome menopausal symptoms. These can range from hot flashes and night sweats to mood changes and sleep disturbances. For many, HRT offers a reprieve, restoring balance and comfort.

Protection Against Osteoporosis: 

Bone health can decline as women age, increasing susceptibility to fractures. HRT for women can play a vital role in maintaining bone density reducing the risk of osteoporosis-related fractures.

Improved Mental Clarity: 

Some women experience memory lapses or ‘brain fog’ during menopause. HRT has been observed to enhance cognitive function and memory in some women, although research in this area is ongoing.

Better Skin Health: 

Estrogen, one of the hormones supplemented in HRT, promotes collagen production. This can lead to improved skin elasticity and a reduction in the appearance of wrinkles.

Potential Risks Associated with HRT

Increased Risk of Breast Cancer: 

Studies have demonstrated a potential link between certain types of HRT and an elevated risk of breast cancer. Discussing this with a healthcare professional like The Leger Clinic is essential, considering factors such as the type and duration of HRT and individual risk factors.

Cardiovascular Concerns: 

For some women, particularly those who start HRT after age 60 or many years after menopause, there might be an increased risk of heart disease or stroke. However, younger women, closer to the onset of menopause, may not face the same risks.

Blood Clots:

Estrogen can increase the risk of blood clots in the legs or lungs, especially during the first year of use. This risk factor can vary depending on the method of HRT (for instance, transdermal patches may pose a lower risk than oral tablets).

Potential Influence on Mood: 

While HRT can stabilize mood for many, it might intensify mood disorders in a small subset of women. Those with a history of mood-related conditions should discuss this potential effect with their doctor.

Making the Decision: Points to Ponder

HRT for women isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. Personalizing the decision based on individual health profiles, concerns, and lifestyles is crucial. Here are a few pointers to aid in your decision-making process:

Consultation is Key: 

Your primary healthcare provider or a specialist in women’s health can provide a clear picture of what to expect from HRT, considering your medical history and present health status.

Short-term vs. Long-term: 

If you decide to start HRT, consider the duration. Some women might only need it for a short term to navigate the initial turbulence of menopause, while others might benefit from longer durations.

Stay Updated: 

Medical research is ongoing, and recommendations can evolve. Stay updated with the latest findings on HRT for women and regularly discuss them with your doctor.

Listen to Your Body: 

Your body’s reactions and comfort levels are paramount. If you start HRT and experience discomforting side effects, it’s essential to report them and re-evaluate the decision with your healthcare provider.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the decision to start HRT for women requires a thoughtful consideration of its benefits and risks. While HRT can offer improved quality of life, vitality, and protection against specific health concerns, it also has potential hazards that you must weigh. With proper consultation, up-to-date information, and a keen ear for your body’s responses, you can decide to prioritize your health and well-being.

@degenerate-mystery-inc-whore once walked into my bathroom and saw 12 candles and 3 full bottles of melatonin. I’ve never seen someone so concerned about my mental health before, but the truth is I just really love candles. My bathroom smells like cake.

I've heard smoking can harm the effects of estrogen, does this apply to nicotine in general or just smoking?

thank you so much for asking this question, this is an extremely important matter to discuss! smoking while taking estrogen HRT is highly discouraged for 2 reasons.

the first is that smoking (nicotine) has been shown to completely neutralize and eliminate the effects of estradiol altogether:

nicotine reduces the amount of circulating estrogen one has in their system, which can lead to menopause in many individuals.

the second reason is that smoking nicotine can increase risk of life threatening clotting disorders like stroke, heart attack and pulmonary embolism:

many folks are not informed of the fact that estrogen hrt can cause increased risk for pulmonary embolism and heart complications- this is why it's vital to make sure you get testing done by a professional to make sure what levels will be safe for your body, or what complications you may face if you have blood clotting or heart issues.

i can't find too many studies that disseminate different types of tobacco usage (chew, vape, patches, etc.) but it does in fact seem like the nicotine itself, no matter how it's administered, greatly affects one's estrogen levels.

overall, i would say it would be best to completely quit using nicotine if you are planning going on estrogen HRT. not only will you see more of the effects you're looking for, but you'll feel better in general, and have a way reduced risk of stroke and heart attacks. there's little to no point in taking a medication that will become completely useless once administered. i had a problem with smoking cigarettes for a while and i wish you the best if you do, yourself.

i hope this information has been helpful, thanks for stopping by! good luck out there
