all my followers are reblogging that post on how “if youre a trans man on t for longer than 5 years you will get uterine cancer” and 

1)  the link is a huffington post article,  

2)  im not a trans man but ive been looking and cant find any sources on long-term testosterone use having an increase in cancer rates,

and 3)  im not saying this is fearmongering trans ppl but it sure is cispicious

trans men on t: just get your junk checked up by a doctor once a year, you don’t ever need a hysterectomy unless your doctor finds something concerning. if your doctor or anyone else says you MUST get a hysto after a set amount of time, DONT BUY IT

that doesn’t even make sense, considering uterine cancer is associated with more exposure to estrogen. also this article doesn’t have anything regarding trans men, but it does say that exposure to testosterone shows no correlation with proliferation of the cells lining your uterus

long story short theres not enough information on long-term effects of hrt to definitively say “this is going to give you cancer” especially when theres a five year timer on it.

the other post had about 4k notes last i saw – which is hundreds of trans people who now believe transitioning is going to potentially kill them in a few years. please be more critical of what “trans information” posts you post and reblog, because this is straight up cruel
