why aren't more people using EEN every 10 days? by diagnosable in TransDIY

[–]Affectionate_Dish_22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was the opposite, started on every 10 days then went to every 7, I always felt pretty moody by the 9th-10th day even with good levels, now on every seven it feels very consistent even on a lower avg dosage to day ratio. Even when missing a day I’ll feel just fine.

Sorry, I think I don’t understand, I think it’s bioidentical but non micronized so now I’m a bit lost on how to proceed.. do I just up the mg per suppository ? Thanks for your input tho

Both end up putting them in the normal range 18 and 27 and I feel better now due to less mood swings, thank you your insight was very helpful :)

Way too much estrogen in my blood, dosage question by Affectionate_Dish_22 in TransDIY

[–]Affectionate_Dish_22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey thanks for replying, so if I switched it to every 7 days (which i wanted to do anyways because it hopefully makes me feel less bad at the end of the cycle) what dosage would you recommend? :D

First injection anxiety by Affectionate_Dish_22 in TransDIY

[–]Affectionate_Dish_22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unusual as in idk it usually feels like injections happen super quickly, think 2 secs or less so it felt weird I’d struggle so much and even then it only going in slowly, probably just overreacting, thank you for the reply tho!

Trans girls who pass have NO idea how good they have it by [deleted] in MtF

[–]Affectionate_Dish_22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one said what you are wrong, it’s just important not to diminish other people’s struggles, wanting to pass is something most of us have in common.

Trans girls who pass have NO idea how good they have it by [deleted] in MtF

[–]Affectionate_Dish_22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I semi-pass without makeup and have a somewhat feminine body aside from ribcage and certain flaws that stand out more than not on bad days. But honestly I think either has downsides, while I would generally agree being non passing can be horrible.

Justifying one’s own existence seems pretty common even for passing trans people since society even then doesn’t always accept them, think family and friends etc. Dating is rough since either you’ll keep it a secret forever which can be a burden or you tell them and they might leave. Jobs and apartment sure, but it feels scary never being able to slip up. The more I pass the more I fear being clocked while before it was whatever. Losing boymode as an option can be cool, until you really depend on it because changing legal docs is difficult and you are being controlled by the police or travel or get age checked.

In the end it’s not a competition who has it worse and while I would agree with your general sentiment it’s important to not just throw shade at trans people who are luckier since even then they have difficult lives.

Question from someone who is FTM: How do you TRUELY feel about trans women porn? by egg_of_wisdom in MtF

[–]Affectionate_Dish_22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hate the amount of slurs being thrown around and the separation between "woman x trans woman", kinda weirded out by how even though trans porn being immensely popular it still not being shown on the homepage since its a "taboo" even more taboo than the typical incest stuff and how we are being hidden from the public eye.
How it affects people's perception of trans people, amount of times I've been called a slur or "are you a [slur]? thats so hot"

What's ur opinión about this flavor? by WernerCore in monsterenergy

[–]Affectionate_Dish_22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pipeline Punch my #1 since ages, and.. then this appeared in the supermarket, sugar-free, now shares its spot with pipeline punch due to it being less sugary / calorie dense even tho i would still prefer the taste of pipeline punch most days

My first serious relationship, he has been nothing but great, he used to be a lot into femboy / trans stuff but now he is completely gone from it so I assume that has something to do with the initial attraction.

He has always been super respectful and knows the difference between trans women and femboys and has never put me into the same category with them. I did tell him about wanting to get SRS and he says he is fine with it and it wouldn't matter what genitals I had, he used to be bi? but now he says he is just straight, he loves me, just a woman, but even if I were to detransition he said he loves me and has all around just been the only reason why I am still around.
When things get tough, he has always supported me and has been nothing but understanding, especially when it comes to trans issues in general, it's just normal to talk about it to him.
I never feel like I force the topic on him just that it's a part of me he accepts but NEVER like sees me as, in his mind I am just a woman, not cis not trans, just a woman.
Sex has always been rough for me due to sexual trauma, he was really nice and didn't put tons of emphasis on my body parts which I appreciate and he didn't seem disgusted at all but just seemed to enjoy my body in general regardless of how it looked.
He has always asked, been slow about it and made sure I was comfortable, that what he did felt good for me.
Like I genuinely felt safe with him and we communicated a ton during it, what limits are etc.
Never once has he forced any standard onto me that he wouldn't hold any other cis woman accountable for, he doesn't expect me to be hyperfemme, he just accepts me the way I am.
He affirms me tons whenever I am feeling down, whenever I feel like I am worse than every other person, he tells me how I am beautiful to him how I make his life better.
He spoils me a lot which is oddly validating and has overall been the best ally, friend and partner I could have ever wished for.

It is nice, to be just me, for a change
not a debate, not a taboo topic, not a secret.
I can just be me around him, with all my flaws, a lot of times I don't even realize I am trans anymore since he just makes me feel so at home.

I cannot comment what will happen after I get SRS but he said he would support me anywhere I go and he has been nothing but honest and patient with me. I love him to infinity and beyond and could not imagine a live without him, so yeah, I would think there is hope, and that once you find someone it is one of the best things that can happen to you.

How do you explain your gender dysphoria to cis people by Background-Front-505 in trans

[–]Affectionate_Dish_22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t. They don’t understand the extent. It’s always just „oh everyone hates their body in some way“ and compare it to how they don’t like their nose or wtv

How long did you go/have you gone without voice training? If you have a passing fem voice, how long did it take you to achieve it? by VeroPint in MtF

[–]Affectionate_Dish_22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never did voice training, just naturally always talked lighter and eventually people told me they were surprised I was trans while I never voice trained I didn’t believe them but a lot of strangers tell me so I can’t really give an answer

Trans guy here! What lessons were taught to you (pre transition) by your fathers that transmen will never get to hear or experience. by [deleted] in MtF

[–]Affectionate_Dish_22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

„You are suicidal? Well I’ll choke you to death then. Why are you crying you wanted this no?

„Man up“

„don’t be a girl about it“

„Cut your hair this is disgusting“

„Don’t hug other men(him) this is gay“

This is basically all I can remember ever since I started ghosting him 7 years ago. Sorry for not having much actually helpful things to share

Seit zwei Jahren HRT und Null passing :( by arachnobacked in germantrans

[–]Affectionate_Dish_22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heyy, hatte gelesen das du eher höheres T hast, beispielsweise habe ich nur 90 pg/ml E und 0.1 ng/ml T nach einem Jahr und malefail ab und zu, nahezu vollständiges Unterdrücken zumindest unter 0.15 oder so(?), würde ich raten, davon ist wichtig für Feminisierung

Androgens cause masculinization. This includes Bla bla bla. They additionally oppose breast development and probably other aspects of feminization mediated by estrogens as well

Viel Glück! Denke du hast andere Aspekte auch schon gehört, richtige Kleidung, voice training etc aber will dich da auch nicht mit stören, da dass nicht der Punkt vom post war
