I'm running an anonymous survey to look into the relationship between hormone levels and wellbeing in transfeminine people. Please answer if you are currently on feminising hormone therapy!

it asks for current information, but should I also enter past data from when I felt differently on a different regimen?
Als Antwort auf Christine

@ChaosMuppet if you can recall how you felt during the regimen of your last blood test, feel free to answer the survey with that info!

@Zora

JFYI, I tried to enter something meaningful for values "out of range" (of the instruments), like T <0.1 and SHBG >200, which didn't work because "only numbers".

@Christine

shrug it's as it is and I’m quite happy :)

(SHBG is so high b/c E2 is also high (272ng/l))

@jaddy Please try again, I’ve removed the data validation :)

The 3rd question on page 2: "What was your latest SHBG level in nmol/L?" is a required question, however that's not something my provider typically test for. I would like to complete the survey, but I can't answer that question and I don't want to skew the data.

@cadenceoflife That’s strange! I’ve only set the estradiol question as required. Can you try on a different device?
Als Antwort auf Zora Elbe

I just did this but realised where it says "how do you feel", to which I answered "awful" (albeit numerically), that's very much due to my current living situation, not my level of hrt. Only kinda realised afterwards :-/ not wishing to skew the data just BC I'm in a shit situation atm

@nflux No worries! Wellbeing is influenced by all kinds of factors, but I hope that a large enough sample size will allow me to see patterns in the data regardless. 🧡

@spaceluciolle Since SHBG binds to estrogen (as well as DHT and testo), high levels of SHBG can mean that your body actually has less estrogen available than a simple estradiol blood test suggests. For example, the body sometimes produces high levels of SHBG as a response to very high estrogen levels.

You probably don't need it tested as often as estrogen, but it's a good idea to test once in a while :)
