Hello trans people, I come to you today seeking your input on the differences between prescription testosterone and underground black market testosterone. Believe it or not, trans people are one of the few groups of people on this planet with first hand experience in this field. Not many people get test directly from the pharmacy and I can not trust second hand information from communities like Reddit or /fit/ since they are mostly talking out of their ass. My question for you guys is: for those that have used both, were there any significant differences between the two? In the lifting community, prescription test is often touted for being god-like and exponentially more potent than UGL test but again, I don't know if this is BS or if the difference is just negligible

not trans but bm shit sucks

Why on earth are you trying to go black market, anon? It's clearly safer to go prescription. Do you live in an area where transition is illegal or something?
I think you're probably overestimating how many of us have taken non-prescription stuff. Unlike MtFs, self-medding isn't that common for FtMs.

I've never used black market stuff because I have no idea how to get some kek
I've been curious but it seems like a lot of shit you gotta learn on your own before anyone's willing to answer questions without being a dickhead

also big reason we don't get black market 'mones: aside from the fact that it's dangerous and there's a lot of shit you gotta learn to not fuck up horribly, it's fucking illegal

They're probably curious for lifting, not transitioning.
