So according to my research and the several medical studies I read were women, men and transgender studies.

Blanket answer, not for young people.

So according to the studies I read cacausion and asian women post menopause (middle aged and elderly) have the highest rate of osteoporosis. This is because there are no more sex hormones being produced.

Cis men had a way lower rate of osteoporosis, and the disease had a small correlation to lower hormone levels (lower Testerone levels).

The transgender study was not very big, but it did conclude that taking Testerone itself will not cause osteoporosis, but continuing hormone treatment and staying in safe levels actually led to transmen on constant hormone therapy, post hysterectomy, having a similar rate of osteoporosis as cis men.

So, actually taking and continuing testosterone hormone therapy will not have a negative affect on bone density.

However, genetics and medications also can play a roles in developing osteoporosis, but this is for anyone cis or trans. So there is always a small exception. This is really the only valid part of these claims. If you are not predisposed to osteoporosis, taking testerone therapy will not harm your bone density, it actually may help you keep your bone density longer than not on hormones.

I hope I answered your question.

If not let me know,

Thank you for being patient,

Hi Anon,

It can be hard at first to get used to putting the gels on regularly and can make you feel that you are different because you have to do this everyday. But keep reminding yourself that there are plenty people that have to take medications regularly for all sorts of reasons. Lots of CIS guys have issues with there testosterone levels and have to use the same injections/gels to top up their levels.

If you are using the gels it is important that you take these regularly as your body has to get used to the hormones.

If you feel you cannot do this regularly you could talk to your GP or GIC about Nebido which is injected far less regularly than Sustanon, usually about every 12 weeks and would be done by your GP or nurse.

For something related to hormones i think you should talk to an endocrinologist. They are people who specialize in hormones so they could offer insight into what would happen if someone were to go on testerone and such. You can look into some endocrinologists who help transgender individuals or maybe a doctor could recommend someone to look into
