I don't like needles tho (> _ <)... is it really that noticeable of a difference from sublingual?

I was told sublingual is one of the worst forms of hrt at this point. Basically shots > pills > sublingual

Edit: after doing research, it sounds like sublingual is more potent but also less consistent. Now I'm wondering if I can take my pills sublingually or if it requires a different formulation.

Wait really? I was told the opposite from pills/sublinguals. I'm just a giant baby and really hate needles...

[–] MossyFeathers@pawb.social 3 points 11 months ago

That's what I was told when I got my hrt.

sublingual can be effective but it requires taking a dose like every 8 hours for best results. no delivery method is best, just better in some ways, worse in others.
