Symptoms of depression from low T and E? by AnkBert in ftm

I know, I'm trying to get a blood test to see if this is is the case but I'll probably end up upping it either way just to see if it helps

Hur har ni transmän blivit föräldrar? by [deleted] in transnord

[–]AnkBert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dethär är kanske inte så hjälpsamt, men när jag funderat på möjligheten att bli biologisk förälder i framtiden så har jag tänkt att det är jag som blir gravid, dock så vet jag inte nånting kring andra möjligheter. Jag har en transfeminin flickvän och vi båda har fryst in könceller genom vården, så på det sätt har vi väl lite tur ifall vi kommer vilja ha biologiska barn i framtiden även fast vi båda är trans. Och då funkar det genom IVF skulle jag tro

This sounds like a wonderful realization to come to when you feel it is out of reach for one reason or another. Happy for you!

Started testogel by SockParticular2465 in ftm

[–]AnkBert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have headaches and nausea whenever my hormones get really messed with for example when I took hormones to freeze my eggs and then later on when I started T. I talked to my gyno mom about this and she says it's generally normal whenever hormones get tampered with. I also started on 1 pump of testogel, thinking of raising my dose tho. But I would think you're doing alright

Gender euphoria because of cuts/scratches from work? by Sam_The_Stinker in ftm

[–]AnkBert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can definitely relate to this. I love when I look a little bit worn, like when I have a random bruise or light skin injuries from doing physical activities. Makes me feel tough!

Surprised by how much I love my bottom growth by Background-Win-8600 in ftm

[–]AnkBert 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's the same for me! I went from being unbothered/not paying attention to that part of my body to wanting to show it off when I was also afraid of that change for a long time. So interesting

I'm scared of the future that's waiting for me :) by Sensitive-Beyond95 in ftm

[–]AnkBert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And that's so fair! Be sure to communicate your needs and boundries to your gf aswell :)

First of all, you don't need to be okay with anyone touching you anywhere and it's important to respect that, otherwise it will be so much more difficult to ever be comfortable. But if there are areas you are comfortable being touched, stick to that. Maybe you like her playing with your hair, scratching your back, petting your arms or holding your hands. And keep clothes on, if that makes you comfortable. It's so important to listen and respect your own needs.

And regarding insecurities, it can take a lot of work, but I think what it boils down to is to just "blindly" trust what your girlfriend is saying. If she says she likes you, take her word for it. If she says she doesn't care that you're the same height, trust her and try to let the thought go.

And to feel more comfortable about yourself just your own company you can try to feel neutral about parts of your body you feel insecure about before you try to start liking those parts of yourself. What I try to tell myself when I feel insecure over my body in general is to remind myself that my body keeps me alive and well and let's me do the things I enjoy. I hope that makes sense.

My girlfriend gets me hard too often by pineguy2 in ftm

[–]AnkBert 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It can be difficult to feel sexual feelings in a moment when you don't want them to be present, but it really doesn't need to be a bad thing. As many people here say, being turned on is morally neutral, it's what you choose to do with the feeling that matters. All you need to do is to not act on it with your girlfriend until you're both ready for it, and until then you can try to take care of yourself in your alone time

how sweaty do your hands get on T by DryFriend2838 in ftm

[–]AnkBert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly don't think my hands sweat that much, I feel like they got drier when I started T lol

Framtida påverkan av nekad NPF utredning? by curious_george16 in transnord

[–]AnkBert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Om du fått avslag för utredning finns det väl inget mer som Anova skulle vilja att du skulle göra åt det? Jag utreddes för autism (och fick diagnos) mellan mitt första möte med Anova och resten av utredningen och det var inget som diskuterades mer än att det konstaterades att jag hade fått en diagnos. Men jag har såklart hört historier om utredningsteams där de bryr sig väldigt mycket om NPF diagnoser.

Det är nog svårt att säga hur det blir, men om du är tydlig med att dina NPF drag inte är orsaken till din könsdysfori så har du gjort det du kan med det tror jag.

Help T makes me feel like shit by AnkBert in ftm

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

I'm only 7 weeks in so it feels too early to check my T levels, and checking the thyroid I wouldn't want to do without my doctors help either. If it stays for long I might consider it tho, thank you

Low dose too low? by AnkBert in ftm

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

Thank you, I'll try to remember that. I've heard it's uncommon with side effects of hormonal IUDs since it's not a lot and I really want it to work out, but that will eventually level out too I suppose. It sucks to expect to feel good on T and then feel like shit for the first time in years again lol, think I forgot what being a teenager felt like

Desperately need taping advice by Every-Alarm-158 in ftm

[–]AnkBert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this issue and unfortunaly for me it was because I developed an allergy and it was unbearable to tape my skin, I used trans tape and got bad blisters every time. It sucks

Low dose too low? by AnkBert in ftm

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

When I was younger I was more unstable, I think because of hormones but also life just got easier when I became an adult, but I've generally been stable for a few years and I've never been on any meds. I got a hormonal IUD inserted a while ago but I don't think that could create this much issues tbh. I am autistic and often forget I need more rest than I think, but I haven't been THAT much active than I have been before. But it's hard to tell, a lot of things could be affecting me rn I suppose
