I was talking to a French trans academic at a conference recently, and apparently there is a large community of trans people that make their own hormones from cheap precursors you can buy online. All secondhand obviously so I don't know the details but this is definitely a thing.

It is absurdly easy as none of the precursors are controlled substances.

Testosterone is a controlled substance but estrogen isn't.
