Olson J, Schrager SM, Clark LF, Dunlap SL, Belzer M. Subcutaneous Testosterone: An Effective Delivery Mechanism for Masculinizing Young Transgender Men. LGBT Health. 2014 Sep;1(3):165-7. doi: 10.1089/lgbt.2014.0018. Epub 2014 Jun 26. PMID: 26789709.
So the mean was 46 mg a week. They started them all off on 25mg and worked up from there based on blood levels. The range of dosage at the end of the six months was 25mg to 75 mg weekly, with the mean being 46 mg.91.4% were at normal range, around 521.4 ng/dL on only 46 mg a week of testosterone.
Interesting.
We don't get many long term studies like that.
Even for identity or sexual preference. Dont really even know that young. Can still be determined as you get older.Children. It's a little disturbing that one was a 13 year old girl. I really do not think a child that age has any clue what the consequences are of her actions in this regard.
I got some tren if you wanna TRENsition him while you are at it.200 shot of test per week and a few IUs of GH
Your whit is impeccable, sir. In all seriousness, though, this is one of those topics I don't want to touch with a 10 foot pole, because every left-leaning lunatic on meso will come after me with pitchforks and torches. All I will say is that I feel so bad for the kids that are being allowed hormone therapy at young ages, The psychiatric professionals, and more especially, the parents of these kids with their young, impressionable personalities, and undeveloped little brains minds should feel so much shame for allowing what they are doing. They have failed miserably at preparing these children to be productive, healthy members of society.I got some tren if you wanna TRENsition him while you are at it.
While I completely disagree with you @fike, this is not emotional for me. Glad you have expressed yourself.
I am pro science and pro doctors making those decisions, not me.
Also really glad to be seeing actual science being done on Testosterone.
I had a friend who as a parent was in this exact situation. She loved her child more than anything and agonized over doing what was best for the child. So much that she moved across the country to seek help from the researchers and doctors at one of the largest transgender health research centers in the country. It costs her a lot including her marriage. I have no doubt she was doing the best she could.It’s just very hard for me to empathize with parents that allow practice to happen.
I am sorry to hear that brother. Childhood leukemia typically has a far better survival rate than adults(atleast today). No one should ever be burying their child. They should be burying us.In 2007 I lost a child to Leukemia. At the time many people had emotional and moral issues with Stem Cell research, so my daughter did not get many medicines which could of given her greater chances for survival. Medicines which today are standard care for someone with Leukemia.
I'm sorry to hear....my deepest condolences.Will write this with no emotion as this part of this is very emotional for me...

This is why I feel doctors, not the emotional and moral issues of a public trying to deal with there understanding of the future should decide this.
I guess I didnt think of this part.create a hypermasculine physique
I have no doubt about that either just from what you told me, but I know parents don't think so clearly sometimes when it comes to the hurt a child is feeling. I say this from personal experience. Early in my marriage, my daughter had a hard time adjusting because they all lived in a very abusive home with my wife's ex. In a fit of desperation and some extensive intrusion via secret means from my wife's ex, he talked her into leaving and coming back to a rental home signed for her to get until my daughter got better. Little did she know at the time, but my daughter pain led her to run right back to the abuser who controlled her mentally and physically for 11 years prior. I thank God every day she woke up to what was really happening and asked if she could come home because he was trying to break in and kill her for marrying me. After some time my daughter also realized what was going on and what her father did to them and now she calls me her dad and loves me more than anybody in this world. But it took time and some pain on behalf of us as parents as well to help her adjust and get her mind sorted out. Many times, us parents just don't make very well informed decisions when our children are involved.I had a friend who as a parent was in this exact situation.
