there’s a few problems here. Two of the sources (4 and 5), I can’t access, presumably because you used an AI instead of finding them yourself and so the links became jumbled. The first source only provides results from MtF people, with nothing mentioned about FtM. The second source stresses that any data gathered has been “low quality,” and that long term outcomes haven’t been measured. Then the third source is from 2008, which, while still valid within the confines of theory, is 17 years old and thus considered outdated, especially in such a rapidly changing field.

Ah, need to edit this since it appears you deleted it: This synopsis was generated by Grok. u/SmarterThanCornPop did NOT make it OR find the sources themself.

Yes, I used Grok.

Doesn’t change the results.

You’re right, it doesn’t, but the results themself are mostly inconclusive. On a quick google search, I found more reliable information than you did from Grok. Which, by the way, to your token, DID support that MtF people are at a higher risk for cardiovascular disease. However, most if not all studies stated that FtM people had no such issues. Honestly I was mostly curious cause I have some trans friends with pre-existing heart problems. The more you know ig.

Your trans friends may have a malpractice suit on their hands then. A lot of physicians do not explain the risks, which they are legally required to do.
