>Estrolabs.com are selling, among other products, an "I can't believe it's not estrogen" supplement, meant to be an alternative to traditional feminizing HRT. This doesn't contain any estrogen, instead its active ingredient is ashwagandha root which actually boosts testosterone levels [1]. Also in the dosages listed, it could apparently cause serotonin syndrome which can be fatal.
LMAO
>Edit: They've taken down the hormone listing and replaced it with an "Oops! All testosterone!" shirt, as well as saying "Did our gas station HRT pill give you male pattern baldness?". This shows that they were fully aware that their pills actually increased T instead of E.
Comments pearl clutch:
>This has gotta be illegal. They're trying to poison people.
As if what you are trying to do isn't already illegal...
>Hey I saw this on Twitter this morning. The fact that this product not only isn't helpful but goes in the reverse (or at least tries to) is actually fricking disgusting. Just monsters trying to take advantage of an extremely vulnerable and desperate group of people while sneakily detransitioning them.
It's actually arguable whether this causes more harm in the long run compared to letting the "questioning" teens there fully transition with all the consequences that come with that.
>transphobic ≠ terf, i doubt a terf would put that much effort into grifting and especially peddling shit like “femboy tummy pills”. their whole sites, including queerquirk, are very stereotypically “woke” and the founders “story” and photo on the latter is entirely AI generated. seems very far right and they are most likely datafarming those who order.
Not the heckin far-right, anything but them...

How illegal is it to sell fake estrogen that does nothing?
