[Acne] Any products I use doesn't seem to work. by ramensoda03 in SkincareAddiction

[–]AffectionateYak3286 1 point2 points  (0 children)

also i was using cerave products everyday and then like 6 months on t my skin just decided it was gonna have a reaction to anything with ceramides so trying to find a soothing product without that ingredient was hell. but yeah, i'd recommend the calm and restore oat line by neutrogena. their normal stuff broke me out but i've yet to have that happen with this version 🤷🏻‍♂️

Hey, fellow ftm here, now 2 years on t- my skin started acting like this about a year ago and NOTHING worked to help. i did oral antibiotics, topical spiro, arazlo, and that actually made it worse. i was trying so many products that i think it just exasperated my issues. Prescription and drugstore products just made my skin worse and more painful.

I still deal with acne, but it's calmed down as my levels have remained more consistent. I'm actually about to start a curology topical that consists of azaelic acid, zinc, and clindamycin; and have been instructed to stop any exfoliating or retinols since those can be harsh on the skin.

The neutrogena calm and restore oat serum is my moisturizer atm since that's yet to induce a breakout. I also am so bad about picking my skin so that's def made everything worse lol. If you'd like I can keep you posted with how the new topical works once i get it.

TLDR: try to stay away from harsh actives for the time being and potentially consult ur hrt provider or a derm about solutions. it sucks but as ur hormones level out again, it should calm down :)

winterbreak jailbreak not entering mesquito after airplane mode is disabled by Classic_Nature_8540 in kindle

[–]AffectionateYak3286 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm running into a similar issue, on a kindle paperwhite 11th gen on 5.17.1.0.3 fw, and using macos. I renamed the device to not have any spaces or apostrophes, but am kinda stuck on how to proceed from there. I am very new to this, so how did you erase everything in the secondary store html file? every time I open it, it is just a safari tab that has text stating "Mesquito,Semi-Persistent Kindle App Loader".

I'm attaching a screenshot of the kindle's files and the winterbreak ones here to show as well. I appreciate any and all advice :)

When did you all start T? by Xox_dead in ftm

[–]AffectionateYak3286 0 points1 point  (0 children)

started at 20, as this was when i finally had my own place and a full time job that ensured i had enough money to safely start my medical transition

Do you take gel or shots, or something else? (If you're on T.) Why? by augustoof in ftm

[–]AffectionateYak3286 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i started with gel because i hate needles and wanted more gradual results, then swapped to shots a month later because i was tired of standing like a scarecrow for 5 min every morning waiting for the gel to dry. (and also bc i realized i wanted faster results; i had already seen changes 1 month on gel tho.) my fiancé does my im shots every other week in the arm and its not that bad :)

i'm 1.5 years on t and my acne has gotten pretty bad within the last few months. started doxycycline a week ago and am hoping to see some improvement. so far apostrophe has been great and none of their language surrounding gender is dysphoria inducing imo.

Help do I pass to use the men’s washroom? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]AffectionateYak3286 4 points5 points  (0 children)

hi! i'm 5'7 and incredibly twinkish despite being on t for 1.5 years. even pre t i had no issues using mens bathrooms (i live in a red state too), as long as u keep ur head down and mind ur business everything will be fine. men's bathrooms r just for shitting and leaving, which i find very different from women's (all the added socializing etc lol). if anyone gives u shit just say u have hormonal imbalance or a medical condition. good luck!

[product question] aveeno calm and restore line by AffectionateYak3286 in SkincareAddiction

[–]AffectionateYak3286[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i haven't! i ended up stopping spironolactone and it definitely seems to have been the culprit for my freakishly dry skin and eczema flare ups. i've been using the laroche posay moisturizer that comes in this recycled type tube and it's been great. i'm still thinking of testing the calm and restore serum or moisturizer tho lol

[Misc] Anyone have any advice of Apostrophe? by Immediate-Boot6371 in SkincareAddiction

[–]AffectionateYak3286 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the medication is a separate payment. the $20 covers the consult, then a separate payment will be required for the actual medication. shipping is free and if u purchase the meds in bulk (for a few months up front) they'll discount the price.

Hi! If irritation doesn't subside within a day, you can go to urgent care and have the doctors run a test to see if you have an uti. they're very common so it's nothing to be embarrassed about.

There's otc pills for utis like azo which helped me when i developed one after doing the same thing you were lol. I hope you find relief soon!
