   whenever a tgirl posts a picture of her newly acquired hrt and it's like 100mg of spiro and 1mg of sublingual estradiol the kill bill siren goes off in my head, i black out, and i wake up with bruises everywhere and "hondose" written all over my body in permanent marker

   more people die from complications from being kept on hondose for a decade 😭 the average troon knows more about hrt than your precious endocrinologerinos who self-id as transition care specialists despite knowing fuckall about us (and usually hating us)

   Everybody is different, but ultimately a hondose is a dose that's remarkably low for somebody, like we're talking putting someone on like 1mg E 50mg Cypro and then keeping them there for comically long.

   we 100000% need a better word for ‘doctors giving incredibly low hrt dosage that’s unlikely to correctly facilitate transition’ than hondose
