(Very funny tweet but on a very serious note:
HRT does not present permanence to infertility and nor does it guarantee infertility even if your natal hormones are brought down to "normal" binary levels - do not rely on HRT for this, it can absolutely backfire) https://twitter.com/Mercantoria/status/1300877521773264907">https://twitter.com/Mercantor...

As with all things in trans healthcare - doctors fearmongering about particular parts of transition does not mean that it holds as accurate and absolute

Viable gametes can still be produced on HRT for some people
A few months off HRT can often restore lost function

Be careful

That& #39;s not to say that HRT doesn& #39;t mean a risk of (possibly even permanent, but don& #39;t quote me on that) infertility:

If you& #39;ve got the means to do gametes storage I& #39;d recommend it for the peace of mind

If you, like me, don& #39;t have the means; don& #39;t despair, there is SOME hope

This stuff is underfunded and under researched, to nobody& #39;s surprise, so it& #39;s difficult to make any clear statistical statements

But there& #39;s absolutely risks in either direction, so you need to apply your better judgement
