for context im in my early 20s and in a decent material condition rn so getting the AA isnt the problem, it’s just deciding which to get
CW: mention of alcoholism
so a friend recommended bica and i was pretty much just about to get it until i saw in the warnings section (on this website: https://healor.com/bicalutamide_mtf) that it said “Do not use or use with caution if you drink heavily” and since i’m an alcoholic (and have been for quite a long time, tried to quit a few times but always started drinking again) i think that i probably shouldn’t go with it.
so since i’m probably not going to be doing bica because of the alcohol related warning, what type of AA would you people advise i get instead?
edit: also how bad could it be if i just went ahead with getting bica anyway, is it worth just trying that out despite the alcohol risk? because it seems to be the best for what i want out of hrt that isnt ludicrously expensive
GnRH agonists like triptorelin might be an option as well, they generally have few side effects and they don’t have risk of liver damage AFAIK, so they’re starting to become the default blockers used in (parts of) mainland Europe. They might run too pricey if you have to pay yourself though.
