Non-binary/gender fluid myself and considering starting T. Haven't yet though, so just here for solidarity. I just had a consultation on Monday about what starting T might look like for me. My doc said while there's not enough info on PCOS , it's generally believed higher androgens are part of the cause, so basically taking T shouldn't really affect any of my PCOS symptoms in either direction. Hope you find answers.
