    Yess that’s the plan, got some finasteride for the balding so I can grow it out nice and long. GP just refused to prescribe me 5mg dose though :( yay transphobia

      Sam’s club has generic minoxidil that can be delivered for $20/6 month supply. That’s what I’m trying atm. I think it was like $50 for the membership though. Meds are insanely cheap there though, so that alone feels like it makes up for it. I just got a derma roller to try out some microneedling too. I’ve only done it once but it’s a bizarre feeling.

        Ah the finasteride I’ve got is working, on a 1mg dosage because of hair loss, suddenly it’s for trans issues and they’re all fucking hesitant. Gonna speak to my therapist and see what they recommend, might just end up getting the lot privately anyway. Don’t think Sam’s club operates in the UK, thanks anyway though!

          I was a little confused for a second, but oh shit I think I got it now. I double checked my insurance and it’s a no on gender anything, so I guess it’d be the same.

          I do know of several affirming care places near me, but I’m not brave enough to look into it too much yet.
