    Hello friends! I've been gone for a while, but I'm back now. After several years, I've finally come out as trans* and am going to be starting T relatively soon (within the next several months). So my question is, which methods have worked best for you all? I've heard that the injections are relatively inexpensive and effective, but many people don't like the side effects between injections.

    Tyler did a video on T delivery methods if you're interested.

    I'm not on T yet, but if I had the choice and money wasn't a problem, I'd go with injections (if I overcome my needle phobia) or the subdermal method. I'm sure I'd have a misstep with patches/creams/gels since I'm forgetful. I don't think doctors consider oral methods anymore because of how T can fuck your liver up hardcore (but then again not being monitored regularly can lead to that as well).
