Are there any you can recommend, or are you just saying that from knowledge of the level of biological discourse here?



HN is the best place for this kind of "sensitive" topic in my opinion.

Youtube is full of self-promotion and "experts" that just try to rack up views. Good luck wading through that, and that's even if you find solid videos that aren't just "fad" shorts.

Reddit is, well, Reddit - I need not say more.

Trying to find information about anything medical on any search engine is a bust because there are millions of sites all offering medical information with no way for us to know their validity.

Scientific articles are also just glorified eyeball generators too, so can't trust them.

Reading the actual published papers is out of reach for most of us that aren't knowledgeable in the field.

Finally - real world Doctors are out of reach for most of us, and they'll only talk to you if you make an appointment. But even if you do, good luck having them take this sort of line of questioning/discussion seriously as it's not the normal and rote "diagnosis" function that they enjoy doing - even if they're up to date with recent research. Like lawyers, they safeguard their sacred priesthood's knowledge, and that's why they only "advise" you if you pay up.

Right, if we can even find the right publication search engine for the right area, then we're likely faced with a paywall with a dollar figure. I'd love a list of free resources for research.
