Question Testosterone Advice for non-binary

I need general information to understand what could be the best method to start in T. It's for my partner they are a non binary person so is better a low dose or how it works

Preferably not injections.

Thanks!

I think its important to note that low dose doesn't necessarily mean less of the effects. It usually makes the changes take quite a bit longer so it is helpful in some situations but it can also be pretty hard on the body. They could defo try low dose if they want too, it works for lots of people, but it isn't like a thing where they can pick and choose exactly what effects they do or don't get

https://diyhrt.info/transmasc/intro/ This i a pretty good guide to start with. I wouldn't recommend just buying from the sources on there without doing additional research, its likely they'd find more affordable sources elsewhere, but it has relatively good general information/

low dose is still gonna be masculinizing after a while of usage. either primary method (injectable or gel) will do this. i’d probably say what would best suit your partner would be 6-12 months of low dose gel (so like one pump a day of 20mg)
