Please help me Ive been self medding (mtf) for a year. I wanted

There's nothing they can do about self-medding so there's really no reason not to. Even if it doesn't help you progress through the medical system there's no chance of it hindering anything. They're not the police so they can't punish you for doing it, and they are under legal obligation not to tell the police, if they do it violates doctor-patient confidentiality.

Right, that much I figured. If I go in during a walk in though and bring this up, would it expedite things? Surely they'd understand being taken off hrt is really damaging.

It doesn't always speed things up, depends on the doctor.
Overall though it doesn't matter. They can't stop you from doing it. It either helps or it doesn't, but it doesn't hurt.
It's like an alcoholic asking their doctor for a liver test. Your doctor isn't going to force you into rehab, they'll give you the test and send you on your way.

If they don't give you a prescription you could continue to self med and just ask them to do the appropriate blood tests to make sure you're safe and your levels are good. Even if your doctor has a moral obligation to it there's literally nothing they can legally do to stop you.

So my fastest option is to just order more anyway. Okay, I guess I can do that. The interim period is complete bullshit though.

Roughly how damaging is this to me? Both health wise and from a transitioning pov? I feel terrible and my moods are erratic. Should I take my remaining pills asap or wait until the shipment is 2 weeks away? That's all I have left

You're gonna be fine kid.
I went without for 6 months a couple years ago and gained back all progress eventually. Boobs recovered and continued growing and developing.

Damaging as in what sense? Like do you mean how the medication might affect your health, or do you mean how your health might be affected by going off the meds?

Cause depending on how long you were on meds it might actually be more unhealthy to go off them. If say you were at the point that your testicles were atrophied or otherwise couldn't produce testosterone you'd have similar negative health effects to what menopausal women and eunuch's get which is hot flashes, mood swings, osteoporosis, cardiovascular issues, etc.

Eunuch here, osteoporosis is more a "I'm doing this for decades" kind of thing
Also totally combatable.
But I digress

Well it's preventable sure, but to prevent it you take hormones lol

>>7346472
Excellent, thank you that was a big concern. It took a year to get this much, didn't want to lose em just like that.

>>7346485
Roughly a year. Hot flashes, erratic mood and I've been getting winded lately. If age matters I started when I was 19.

Nope. I get proper amounts of vitamin D, calcium, b vitamins and other nutrients, and also engage in regular load bearing exercise. If it becomes an issue in the future (over 5 years, so far so good, and that's when the bulk of bone density loss occurrs) I can always take osteoporosis prevention/reduction medication, not that it's even that big of a deal. Even without it we have higher life expectancy than intact males.

Well you're not going to die anyway. Nobody has ever died from menopause lol
Chances are it's just your hormones rebounding. Unless your testicles are completely atrophied chances are eventually the erraticness will go away once your body resumes making testosterone. You might not feel as happy though if you noticed estrogen improved your mental health, but many of the other things will go away as you get actual hormones in your system.
