Will HRT Injections affect/break a prolonged fast?

I’m planning to do a prolonged fast +10 Days.

My question is, because HRT injections contain a small amount of carrier oil, will this break a fast or have an affect on autophagy?

Estradiol Valerate injection has a half-life around 3.5 - 5 days. My last injection was yesterday, because the hormones are released slowly into the bloodstream for the next 5 Days will it be better for me to start my prolonged fast next week?

I’m not planning to inject while on a prolonged fast.

Answer

Trans gal here, have no problems with my sublingual estrogen tablets while fasting.

Did have problems with anti-androgens though due to potassium levels, which shouldn’t be a problem if you are cisgender or on monotherapy.
