Questions and resources related to Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), for transgender and GNC individuals
Moderators may take action or inaction at their discression outside of these rules if needed, although we do generally try to stick to them.
Hate speech is prohibited. No racism, homophobia, transphobia, and so on for all intrinsic characteristics. Do not personally attack other users. This includes ironic self deprecation, transmedicalism advocacy, calling people's "transness" into question, and similar lines of comments. If you think another user has said something incorrect, reply politely or walk away.
We're a subreddit intended to help people with HRT and adjacent medical issues. Social posting and non-medical transition questions should go to more generic trans subreddits such as /r/MtF, /r/FtM, /r/AskTransgender and so on. For non-HRT related medical issues you should be talking to a doctor.
When asking questions, be clear about what the problem you're facing is and provide clarifying infomation when requested. Post titles should be informative but brief. Ask for help with the root problem rather then what you think the solution might be whereever reasonable (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XY_problem). Confirm answers with multiple people whereever possible, because sometimes people will say dumb stuff and it doesn't get caught in the moment. Use the appropriate post flair.
When answering questions, stick to established science whereever possible and have sources for your statements. If you can stick to peer reviewed published work that doesn't have major critiques then perfect, if this doesn't exist then use community resources which have stood up to scruiteny. Anecdotes are generally not sufficient.
Where at all possible, do not DM other users, and do not ask other users to DM you. Report and block people who DM you, especially if they are trying to sell you anything. Keeping discussions in public is the primary tool for avoiding misinformation and scams.
Some topics are prohibited, either due to reddit site wide ToS issues, because they are effectively unsolvable, or they have a tendency to generate high quantities of rule breaking posts.
Some topics are restricted, and posts will be removed unless they are of high quality. You might want to poke a mod before posting to check if this is the case.
Please see separate list due to length.
Second party reviews and recommendations are allowed in moderation. Excessive or unprompted promotion will lead to post removal. Requests for storefronts or suppliers are also permitted within reason. Storefronts/suppliers may not self-promote. Paid incentives to promote are prohibited.
