I've been getting my hormones, spiro' and estradiol, online for some time now. I finally found a decent gender therapist and have my first appointment with him this month and was wondering if I should just get him to prescribe them legally. I've heard a few people say that hormones purchased overseas are more effective than the ones prescribed here locally by u.s. doctors. Is this true? Should I keep getting my meds online and just get bloodtests done here?

Wow....

Been a long time.

I haven't had to ask a question about trans-related stuff or anything pertaining to my transition in a while. I guess I had kinda been hoping I had it all figured out.

I'm a full time MTF. I haven't finished hair removal yet and I still have to shave my face every day. I have ULTRA SENSITIVE SKIN. This leads to a lot of unsightly redness and razor bumps that I have to conceal using makeup, which irritates the skin and makes the bumps worse.

I am working on getting hair removal started, but for the immediate future, does anyone have a suggestion regarding a lotion or product or routine that would help make razor bumps, redness, and iritation go away?

Thanks
