And one of the reasons some meds are not OTC is bc self dx isn't considered safe.
Of course- and HRT is not OTC. I was just pointing out that self diagnosis is hardly unheard of in medicine- it's a daily normal thing. It was being made to sound like some wild, insane idea that patients would notice their own symptoms and seek treatment based on them.
