I'm a 26-year-old guy thinking about transitioning to female and I'm not quite sure where to start. How do I go about getting estrogen, and how much does it usually cost? Are there things I should be prepared for while going through this process?
ideally an endocrinologist or a gender-affirming clinic, for guidance on hormone replacement therapy (HRT), including estrogen; they will assess your overall health, provide personalized advice, and prescribe medication if necessary; costs vary depending on location, insurance, and specific treatments, but expect around $30-100 per month for estrogen therapy; be prepared for regular monitoring, potential side effects, and emotional changes as you begin your transition journey.

I'm a 34-year-old male, and I recently checked my random blood sugar level, which came out to be 153. Should I be worried about this? What does it mean for my health?
A random blood sugar level of 153 mgdL is considered elevated, but not necessarily indicative of diabetes; however, it's a red flag, especially for someone as young as 34, and warrants further evaluation, such as a fasting blood sugar test, HbA1c, or an oral glucose tolerance test, to determine if you're at risk for developing insulin resistance, prediabetes, or type 2 diabetes
