As much as it costs to get tests done regularly, in the long term it's the best way to go. I'm not on hormones yet, but when I do I'm going to do it the safest way possible.

Just make sure your doc is an expert on TS HRT in that case. Having a doctor does not help if said doctor gives you a slightly dangerous prescription due to not knowing better (not EE or MPA, oral vs sublingual vs injection vs transdermal etc).

I'm seeing the gender clinic endo who seems to know what he's doing, and I have a fair enough understanding of it to know what's not great for my health.
