post: hey trans women and girls in a lot of countries could maybe take otc birth control!

obviously ethinylestradiol isn't great, especially long term, but for a lot of people the slightly increased DVT risk is worth preventing permanent masculinization and it's over the counter in these countries (except the US)! https://freethepill.org/otc-access-world-map it's something commonly done by trans women in countries from thailand to the philippines to brazil and it can be a lot more affordable and accessible than DIY with crypto or waiting years through doctor gatekeeping.
