  • Both look the same to me on the search engine.

  • From the website for anybody who needs to know ingredients:

    The active ingredient is estradiol enanthate (400 mg). Inactive ingredients are benzyl alcohol (2% w/w) as a preservative and MCT Oil as the carrier. Does not contain benzyl benzoate.

    Edit: My quick internet search can't find any studies looking at pharmaceutical use past 28 days. I remember reading a super informative post about benzyl alcohol a long time ago.

    Since you're talking about using it for longer than 30 days, I'd store it in an air tight container in the dark and toss in oxygen reducing packets to eat up all the oxygen in the container. Benzyl alcohol & estradiol both oxidize anyways.

    Edit 2: @sidalsolgun@lemmy.ca quotes https://pghrt.diy/#S5.SS24

    5.24 How long until a vial expires?

    A sealed vial could last for years without issue if it is stored at stable temperatures away from the light. Concerns with age are primarily carrier oil oxidation assuming that the vial was sterilized as it should be. A punctured vial that has a preservative in it (see Question 6.17) should last at least a year or whatever the life time of the vial is (i.e., how long until you use it all). The “discard after 28 days” listing on vials is simply the minimum requirement for how long manufacturers must guarantee sterility, not the maximum shelf life.

    I guess I can go up or down as needed. And stretching the bottle longer for stockpiling in a video game can't hurt.

  • Nvm. Per https://transfemscience.org/articles/injectable-e2-meta-analysis/

    Additionally, it was noted in this meta-analysis—based on clinical research in cisgender men with prostate cancer—that only modestly supraphysiological estradiol levels, of no more than approximately 200 to 300 pg/mL, are likely to be needed for strong testosterone suppression in transfeminine people. This has likewise been confirmed with solid clinical data in transfeminine people by Herndon et al. (2023), with 88% of those on injectable estradiol monotherapy having testosterone levels of <50 ng/dL at a median injectable estradiol dose of 4 mg/week and with median estradiol levels of 220 pg/mL. It is the opinion of the present author that Herndon et al. (2023) is a very important and formative study, with clinical implications that go far beyond merely supporting the s.c. use of injectable estradiol. The study represents the first major step in the published literature to correcting the dosing and intervals of injectable estradiol in transgender care guidelines and in transgender health generally. I commend the researchers for their work.

    Estradiol cypionate under dosing?

  • What is your experience in amount of time drawing for the smaller needles? I see a lot of posts saying to switch out needles to speed up drawing.

  • Thank you. A follow up question, what needle size would I use for subcutaneous? I know most doctors automatically assign intramuscular injections.

    How much valerate to ask for?

  • You're here now and that's what counts ❤

  • As advice for anybody, just stay away from this. Touching it is self-harm.

    Oil is flowing like never before, thanks to the awesome Power of the United States Military. A special salute to Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Dan Caine, and Commander of the United States Central Command, Admiral Brad Cooper. Because of them, and all members of the Most Powerful Military anywhere in the World, BY FAR, the Strait of Hormuz is open to ALL Ship traffic except for Iran — and that is because of their lying, violent, malicious leadership, which is taking them down the path of TOTAL DESTRUCTION. We will therefore have a FULL Blockade, but only on Ships coming to and from Iranian ports, or carrying anything have to do with Iranian cargo. Based on highly productive conversations with Middle East leadership, I have decided to replace the 20% United States Reimbursement Fee with Trade and Investment Deals that the various Gulf States will be making into the United States. Those Investments will be MASSIVE but, at the same time, extraordinarily good for them, and their future. As everyone is aware, we have the largest Dollar Investment into the United States, of any Country in History, but these new Investments will make that Number even larger, and we will see Factories, Plants, and Equipment pour into the United States at Historic levels, which will create additional millions of High Paying AMERICAN Jobs! America is WINNING again, winning like never before. The days of Iran killing hundreds of thousands of people, including 52,000 protestors, are OVER and, most importantly, IRAN WILL NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP
