Tbh, I’d be tempted to say “go for it!” if it weren’t for the medical liability. A doc would want to check your hormone levels before prescribing estradiol just to ensure that there aren’t any risk factors present.
The odds of one dose fucking you up are very, very low but not zero.
There’s a reason E is normally prescribed with a testosterone blocker. Small doses of Estradiol will do next to nothing if there’s still a natural level of T flowing through your system.
I’ve still got my “normal” levels of testostetone, but I’m taking finasteride to keep it from affecting my hair follicles while the estradiol does its work softening my skin and plumping up my chest.
I probably could be a lot more feminine by this point if I had a full-spectrum anti-androgen like spironolactone or cyproterone acetate, but that’s not my transition goal. I’m actively seeking an androgynous appearance and itty bitty titties, so estradiol monotherapy with finasteride is working just fine for me.
there’s a little voice in my head telling me to try one just to fuck around

Not a doctor- but…

Right, but in the context of
Trying ‘one just to fuck around’ will do next to nothing.
Probably, yeah.
Though, I’d love to hear from a “cis guy” who decided to fuck around like this and found out something about themselves in the process. =3
is this a request lol
Legally I must state that it is not, but if you do go through with it then I want a trip report. =D
I read “Plump up my chest” to the tune of “Pump up the Jam”
It’s stuck in my head now 😂
A single Estradiol prolly won’t do anything.
But testosterone blockers like Spironolactone is also a heart medication, so be careful.
