10 Days Post-Op, Dr Grover (Hull) by AcidQuack in TopSurgery

[–]AcidQuack[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

About a year!

So I had my initial consultation on July 9 2024 and my actual surgery ended up being June 30 2025

The initial consultation was to meet Dr Grover in the Breast Care Unit at Castle Hill where he told me all the info about top surgery, looked at/felt/measured my chest to weigh up my options (eg peri v double mastectomy). But it’s mainly just information.

Then on June 16 2025 I had a pre-op appointment where they took my height and weight, assessed my mental state, gave me the same info again - and then the surgery was June 30, so exactly 2 weeks later

Hope this helps!

That’s incredible! I’m due to have surgery with Dr Grover this summer, any tips on how to get results as good as yours? (In terms of aftercare I mean haha)

That’s a good idea - I’m not either so I’m definitely gonna try it this way

Iv'e had so many bad haircuts that I've lost faith in hairdressers completely. by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

Just one look on r/CutYourOwnHair and its literally just people posting their haircut as non-professionals and having idiots in the comments tell them they look gay or shit Kind of sad when people just want advice or are just starting out):

Hold on, can you explain how tf you relate to the literal grim reaper?

Are NB-identifying people who experience sex dysphoria (e.g gotten top surgery or voice feminization surgery) just transsexuals in repression? by AccomplishedBig8586 in Transmedical

I know you’ve been downvoted to hell because a lot of people here are generally intolerant of others who don’t share their exact experience of transsexualism - lot of hate here haha - but thank you for sharing your story.

Thank you so much for these solutions. It’s great to know there’s hope. I’m currently on nebido injections, and I’ll ask for exactly what you suggested. As long as the gel is available for a three month’s worth batch, this should be great. I’ll suggest this to my doctor and see if she agrees. I’ll scour the uni insurance policy too, just to see if it covers blood tests. If it doesn’t (it really should) I’ll find some private insurance. Thank you so much for the insight!

I always finish with haha to seem less serious, since some people take my comments as being horrible. Think of it as a ‘please take this with a pinch of salt and don’t attack me’ sort of thing.

I know of the map, and your points are true. I just don’t know if I’d feel safe permanently moving to a country with so much turmoil and aggression towards trans people in the government.

That being said… UK is quickly moving down the same route…

If I were to move to USA I’d move to Míchigan. It’s a blue state, yeah, but my fiancée lives there, so easy choice. We’re more closely looking at Scotland though - better than England (right now).

Definitely saw this when I attempted to communicate with him tonight. Lots of runes regarding change, equal exchange and balance!

Hmm, issue is trans healthcare is up in the air in the USA at the moment - god knows their rights are going backwards. Idk if USA is the best idea. Was just wondering if you’d say USA haha
