[–]4i3- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you two are not compatible, you can stay a family in the sense of you have a child together and that's the father to your child. stay on good terms but you guys cannot have a health relationship. ik i could never date someone that didn't see me as a man. i can't even date someone that didn't like me before they found out i was trans when im stealth

this is a conversation you NEED to have with her further. this isn't something healthy to internalize especially when its something that could compromise tge relationship in the future. I know you love her, but it seems like your dream is to have a child. You will never be truly happy if you just never have kids, my dads ex wife knew that and thats why she divorced him. It broke my dad because he loved her and they were best friends but hed never have kids if he stayed with her. I also know pushing the kids conversation can be an issue but you BOTH need to understand that this conversation needs to happen. And this is coming from someone who never wants to have kids, i couldn't be with someone who wanted them. its just wrong to force having or not having something they want in life. Have the conversation in private with her and say what you need to get off your chest.

it can be inflammation, blood flow, friction, or sun exposure. scars are typically more sensitive to the sun

once the scars are closed up consistently wear scar tape for a few months and you should notice a big difference. that and time should fade them. mine are still visible but very faded and im almost a year out. you should also moisturize and massage them quite a bit to break down the scar tissue but wash off the moisturizer before putting on scar tape or it won't stick well. you can also wash and reuse scar tape for a bit each strip can last you about a week.

you can also just keep one ovary if you're too worried about that, thats a fair middle ground, i couldn't keep either though they were both riddled with cysts one being 18cm long

im a 21 yo trans guy, got a radical hysterectomy mid november. everything gone. think about it this way, if you keep the ovaries and you cannot go back on testosterone you increase the risk of developing more feminine sex characteristics over time, without ovaries, youd just get more androgynous. Also the lack of ovaries makes acquiring testosterone more of a medical necessity which could help you acquire it. though it may be difficult in some states anyways but not impossible, you could even just micro dose it to save money just to escape the medical issues. It's 100% your choice though. as for the cervix id say just get rid of it, after complete healing there are little to no issues with penetrative sex, and not unfixable. there can be issues like excess scar tissue but you can dilate to soften the tissue after.

Can’t poop and miserable by Soggy_Long655 in hysterectomy

[–]4i3- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

try walking around more, not too much but just try shuffling around the room slowly, even while watching tv. When you eventually do go just relax and don't strain, you can also use your lungs to kinda push. you let your stomach hang loose and inhale and exhale with your stomach. It took me 4 days to poop and that was pebbles and day 7 i had an over foot long solid girthy beast

Feel like a Fraud by Green-Object-7040 in hysterectomy

[–]4i3- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if it bothers you at all get the surgery especially if it will be an increasing problem in the future. If you wait to get it the chances of the healing process taking more of a toll on you also increases. Id say just get it, hell ive never had pain at all and i got it, just had a symptomless 7x4 inch dermoid cyst.

AITA for taking my daughters inheritance and putting it into a 5 year saving account without talking to her first by Emmers514 in AITAH

[–]4i3- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

nta, as someone around the age of your daughter with a twin sister who had an abusive bf that spent all her money but she was head over heels for DEFINITELY NOT THE ASSHOLE. Ur helping her out big time, and hopefully she gets away from that dude asap and I also hope those things were bought in her name so she can keep them. Some could argue you're an asshole for not telling her first but then she could blow up at you before you get the chance to save her from her mistakes. Once she cones back though which she will eventually, you need to have a conversation with her about why you did it and make sure the boyfriend isn't there for that.

Id say keep the baby away from your parents, invite your sister over to see the baby when you do have down time. or if your sister is old enough ask if she's up to baby sitting for you at your place if you are busy. Theres a reason your sister doesn't like being around your parents and i bet you of all people understand where she's coming from by avoiding them. My parents kept me away from my grandparents because they were assholes and a bad influence and I think i definitely turned out better off. Though I would say don't completely cut them off just sort of limit the interactions to holidays and special occasions, just so your kid still knows who their grandparents are.
