Summary

The specific aim for our study is to measure coagulation system activation and fibrinolysis following transdermal versus sublingual versus oral estradiol versus in transgender women.

Hypothesis: Transdermal estradiol will result in less coagulation system activation and no effect on plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) or tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA). Oral estradiol will result in the most coagulation system activation and effect on PAI-1 and t-PA: Oral estradiol \> sublingual estradiol \> transdermal estradiol.

A prospective crossover study will include ten subjects given estradiol 1 mg daily and instructed to take it orally, sublingually, or transdermal for 2 months with a 2-week washout period between routes of administration. Labs will be measured 7 times during the study.
