You're not likely to have the energy to do anything beyond lounging around for at least a week or two, I'd plan on taking at least a month off work.
https://transfemscience.org/articles/e2-equivalent-doses/ in particular here.
It's either my alarm clock or 5.1 speakers, both of which would be somewhere over 20 years old.
Follow international medical guidelines (i.e. WPATHv8) as a baseline, actually listen to trans people, and be willing to deviate based on patient need.
Have the trans community involved in governance in a non-tokenestic way, e.g. seats on the board.
Took me maybe a year to fully stop doing.
It varies in practice. Most people I see using identify, including many trans people, are well-intentioned and think it's the preferred polite language without thinking too hard on the implications of it.
However there are definitely anti-trans people who will use it pejoratively, which I presume is where that wording originated.
Testosterone can convert to estradiol via aromatase, however there's no metabolic pathway in the other direction.
For me I noticed minor benefits after 4 days, and it took about 2 weeks for it to more fully kick in.
Personally the other side effects ended up with me going off it. The focus benefits stayed, though the low mood it turned out it was causing took 3 weeks to go away after I stopped.
my male genitals are not working well
This is a common side effect.
For estradiol pills, patches, and gel are your options if you can't do needles.
Pills aren't recommended for over 45s or those with a history of blood clots, due to increased risk of blood clots.
When I previously looked into that, there's no literature on taking both. However I hear for some people that guanfacine alone is sufficient.
When I was on it I found it helped with distraction, but not task initiation, and the various dosages made no difference. Given that and some of the side effects I ended up going off it.
Guanfacine handled the task initiation for me, but not the distraction.
For pre-op http://fuckingtranswomen.org/ is generally what is recommended.
Unfortunately she passed away before writing the post-op version.
Nimona and there's a bit in The Legend of Korra.
For anime there's Wandering Son (trans), Yuri on Ice (gay, didn't see the hype myself), and I'm currently working through S1 of Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury which my housemate and I refer to as Space Lesbians - though technically its more bi. I watch subs, so can't comment on dubs.
Yes, it took me maybe 6-12 months after I was out to stop doing it.
Still happens rarely, usually for phrases that are gendered that I'd not be using often.
Yes basically, it's also less complex. Due to this there's more research data to support it for under 18s than genital surgery.
See the section "Consideration of ages for gender-affirming medical and surgical treatment for adolescents" in WPATH v8 which covers this in depth.
The anti-trans groups champion her book, so I think it's safe to say that she is not impartial.

Image Description: A Zoladex injection is being administered to a small cat plushy wearing a blåhaj costume, by a larger version of itself which is also wearing a non-binary scarf. The Zoladex is almost as thick as the smaller blåhaj's arm.
