There should be no doubt these people suffer from mental illness. A good proportion of Antifa is composed of these raging lunatics. They are the 'shock' troops of the communist left.
Transsexual behavior was listed as a mental illness in the manuals of the American Psychological Association and the World Health Organization in the 1980s.
The APA and WHO need to return to this definition for these very irrational and sick people. The potential is there to not only harm, but to kill many more people.
My following statement might sound obvious, but scientifically it is more complex. Here it is:
"What isn't male is really female". What do I mean by this? There is two significant hormonal events that make the biological sexes. Testosterone overrides the baseline influence of estrogen. However, estrogen is always there for reasons of optimal balance. You provided one purpose of estrogen above. And it turns out that the female sex has a much wider range than the male sex does. Being male is really the exception to what otherwise would be female. Without testosterone production, the male becomes estrogen influenced.
In regards to your question, it appears that it would be most likely testosterone blockers that are being prescribed. To varying degrees estrogen is the baseline existing in both male and female. I once read a story about a man vacationing in the Virgin Islands. The article said when he returned to the States, he complained of his nipples being swollen and very sensitive. The doctor examining him found that this individual was experiencing breast development. It turns out, when he was in the Virgin Islands he lived on bourbon and chicken. Bourbon is a testosterone blocker and the chicken he ate was hormone treated. Typically, this means testosterone inhibitors. Hormonal treated chicken is common practice throughout the Caribbean. The point is -- what isn't male becomes female. Could this happen to anyone? It depends on the testosterone level of the individual compared to their underlying baseline of estrogen. My son works at a fast food chicken restaurant. The chicken sold are hormonal treated and these chickens from hatching to adult take 3-4 weeks compared to the normal 5 to 6 months for normal development to an adult chicken. It's something to think about when eating out or buying grocery chicken.
Blocking estrogen doesn't necessarily make a male. Women produce varying levels of testosterone, but obviously in much smaller proportion than in males. This, along with estrogen levels, provides the larger range of the female sex. The male sex range has been shown to be much smaller.
I 100% agree with what you are saying. But if "they" were taking testosterone it would aromatize into more estrogen. Which is what the doctors I think wouldnt want. Thus perscribing something like anastrazole, or some other estrogen blocker. This would make the trans person very irate. Happens with us "bro science" guys. When we start taking e2 blockers. Our mood and libido, and especially mental health can go to complete disarray.
Interesting. By using the word aromatize, are you generally referring to acting through the process of an Aromatase inhibitor?
The human body uses a closed-loop bio-chemical feedback system that regulates out health for 'optimal balance'. This is inclusive of homeostasis that dictates human health. A good example when this is ignored involves long-term anabolic steroid use in body builders. Often the consequence after ending its use is lifelong testosterone deficiency. Often this is a permanent syndrome. The body has adjusted its normal testosterone production to counter the rise caused by the testosterone-imitator of anabolic steroids. The human body becomes 'biased' to this new norm.
This issue of throwing off 'optimal balance' is far more widespread than the medical industry acknowledges. It is rarely recognized. I suspect the aromatizing is part of this process of trying to maintain homeostasis as part of the overal optimal balance.
Exactly Anastrazole is an Aromatase inhibitor. And is often prescribed by TRT doctors. And self prescribed by the bro science world.
Edit: I just looked into it a bit further. For a female her body will indeed NOT try to aromatize the test into any other compound.
For males. When we inject testosterone, Our bodies convert this to Estrogens, and DHT.
