SA Out Of Stock For Drug That Turns Women Into Transmen (PICS) by WannaHowzit(m): 4:14pm On Nov 15, 2022
A stockout of Pfizer's Depo-Testosterone (a hormone used by transgender men to help them develop male traits such as a deeper voice) is now entering its second year in South Africa.

This is the third time the product has run out since 2018.

The only other product available at pharmacies is Nebido, which is nearly four times more expensive than Pfizer's product.

A Cape Town pharmaceutical company, Fagron, makes a version of Depo-Testosterone for individual patients with a doctor's prescription, but state facilities and some nonprofits rely on Pfizer’s product to provide their services.

The pharmaceutical company didn’t respond to requests for comment about the reason for the shortage, but the manufacturer’s spokespeople have told numerous other news outlets that it was prioritising Covid-19 vaccines.

Mandla Ndlovu's Story

Something about the doctor’s room Mandla Ndlovu was standing in didn’t feel right.

The small appointment space was hidden on the fifth floor of a run-down building in Johannesburg’s city centre.

R100 got him a consultation with a doctor, whose desk was littered with medicine vials, some labelled and some not, some full and some empty.

"I’m looking for testosterone," Ndlovu said.

Ndlovu is a transgender man, which means he was classified as female at birth, but he identifies as a man.

Many transgender men take testosterone to help them develop physical, male traits. The male hormone stimulates the development of facial hair and a deeper voice, and stops menstrual cycles.

Transgender people may experience something called gender dysphoria, which is a feeling of intense body discomfort when the sex they were born with differs from the gender they identify as.

An analysis of many studies shows that people with gender dysphoria experience mental health problems such as anxiety and depression more often than the cisgender population (people whose gender identity matches their sex at birth).

However, these psychological conditions often decrease to similar levels as among cisgender people once trans people start gender-affirming medical treatment, such as taking cross-sex hormones.

Taking cross-sex hormones such as testosterone can go a long way to help people with gender dysphoria.

There are 28 000 known Transmen in South Africa

Going without hormones can reverse some of the effects of hormone therapy depending on people’s individual anatomy, how long they’ve been on testosterone, and whether they’ve had any surgery.

People could, for instance, feel their skin becoming softer, muscles becoming less defined and fat would move to settle around their hips and on their chests, says Anastacia Tomson, a doctor and transgender activist in Cape Town.

It’s also likely, she says, that without testosterone, people’s menstrual cycles will return.

The hormone treatment is often a crucial step for people considering gender-affirming surgery.

Doctors may recommend that someone gets hormone treatment for a year before going for a gender-transitioning operation, such as, in the case of trans men, bottom surgery (a procedure to construct a penis).

But Depo-Testosterone, the cheapest version of the hormone and which is manufactured by Pfizer, has run out in South Africa three times for periods of between one and 12 months at a time since 2018.

The latest stockout started at the end of 2021, and a March statement from Pfizer (which is dated incorrectly) said their product could only be back on the shelves - around the world - somewhere between April and June next year.

The current lack of stock means the just over 28 000 transgender men in South Africa have few affordable options for getting hormone treatment.

There's no evidence anywhere in the world that decriminalising LGBT rights leads to a rise in homosexuality. It only leads to LGBT people living their lives freely which is why you'll see them more.

The only hetero people who should fear gay people are those who aren't sure of themselves. If you know you're straight, why worry about gays undecided

I don't worry or fear gays. Their body is their business and whom they choose to be intimate with is up to them. But ur statement is all wrong. It will lead to a rise in the future because the next generation will see it as normal and then little kids are groomed in who wouldn't know what's right or wrong but what they're taught and what they learn over time.

Sexuality is predetermined by your DNA and not what you learn. So you're wrong.

Gay people grow up in overwhelmingly heterosexual countries and under unimaginable prejudice and torture, and yet they don't "learn" to be straight.

Future generations will be just fine.

It's not empty noise and the bold will be just once upon a time in the not too far future if this continues. Why do u think we have laws to curb them.

Actually the worst part is most of this drugs arent perfected yet, the go through a lot of clinical trials and also results are kept out of the public disclosure for along time first. I know the sale of the drug in Africa is to study adverse effects.

Mark my word, years later records will be made public like covid vaccines

@bold Most drugs aren't.

Even when the AIDS cure comes out eventually some people will have to be guinea pigs for some years afterwards.

People who desperately want treatment are willing to go through the risk in most cases.

All the meds and various treatments such as chemo you've taken in your entire life someone had to take the "risk" of being a guinea pig - gay or not.
