Summary

Transgender Americans are stockpiling hormones and researching DIY solutions amid fears that President-elect Trump may restrict gender-affirming healthcare, as he pledged during his campaign.

Online communities are sharing resources, with some turning to nontraditional sources or synthesizing hormones despite risks like inconsistent dosages and legal consequences.

Advocacy groups are offering legal support for those self-managing care, while healthcare providers emphasize that access remains unchanged for now.

The World Health Organization has called for expanding self-care guidelines to include gender-affirming therapy, reflecting a growing global conversation on healthcare access disparities.

    Unfortunately, we’ll never know how much impact the BlUeMAgA screechers had, words are powerful and they posted them wherever they could get away with. Did they reach all those 10 million people? Probably not, but I also wouldn’t say they had an “insignificant” amount of influence (like they claim now, after the election ofc)

    They’re just closeted MAGAts AFAIC now
