thinking back to the time when i had an appointment with an endocrinologist to make sure i don't have pcos (because of beard growth when i wasn't on testosterone) and he asked me about my history and i told him that i gained a bunch of weight as a teen (like about 20 years ago now, that i then dropped because of an E////D) which coincided with the sudden heavy hair growth all over and that that seemed kinda shady to me since i hadn't changed my (very active) lifestyle or my diet at all at that point
and he looked me straight in the face, dropped the hair growth treatment talk and without batting an eye asked me a "have you tried intermittent fasting? do you know what that is?" when i wasn't here for that to begin with and then tried to smooth his way out of it when i got upset saying that he's just "doing his duty as a doctor" telling me about treatments
motherfucker i was there because i wanted to know if my endocrine system was healthy so i could take hrt!!!! didn't need advice on how to starve myself pt 2!!!
/////: hey if you somehow made your way here from pro ana tag crawling don't bother interacting with this i WILL report you for self harm let me recover without you sapping off my experiences like leeches
#like granted he was normal about me declining any hair growth treatment because i was planning to go on t anyway and there was no#discernible health reason for the hair growth#but imagine being told to try intermittent fasting when you're still in E///D recovery and eating a single meal a day lmfao#like and i'm at what would be considered underweight levels still#it was on god the most surreal medical experience i had so far? at no point before him asking about my history was my weight even mentioned#eating disorder tw#disordered eating tw
