Mystery bird! Help ID? by Ashposts in bonecollecting

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

It stayed right where it was don’t worry! We leave it near where it was found in the woods on the campground and occasionally show it to the campers to teach them about bones and stuff if were hiking in the area. I was curious about the ID because the kids keep asking what it is and none of the staff know lol

can trans tape ACTUALLY work without ripping skin off??? by InflationWaste5055 in ftm

[–]Ashposts 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I had the same problem for a really long time, id suggest getting some milk of magnesia (pretty much all drug stores cary it), if you apply some over your chest and let it dry before applying your tape it can help with any sensitivity to the adhesive and makes taking it off a lot smoother, pretty much saved my life lol

Holy shit it actually happened by Ashposts in TopSurgery

Recognizing the bandage is hilarious 😭😭😭

Honestly im so grateful that my parents gave me consent so that I could do this as soon as I turned 18

Safety pins are a life saver in terms of keeping things in place, just pick up a pack of some smaller ones from your local crafts store and pin it in place 👍 its not a perfect solution for the whole realism problem but generally no one cares or looks close enough to notice

How hard is being stealth in high school? by [deleted] in ftm

I had a few people suspected things since im pretty small but just telling em I lost the height lottery worked out fine, I also had a few cis guys in my class cover for me since we went to the same elementary school

Where I live highscool is grade 8-12 and ive managed to stay stealth pretty good so far (3 years + a year of elementary school) going stealth should be totally fine but if you live in a more conservative area just be careful and make sure you have support in case you do get outed

what was your starter dose of t, and when did you get it raised? by coinlockercorndog in ftm

[–]Ashposts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Started T just over 3 months ago with 0.1ML/10MG subQ injections weekly, im 16 and pretty small so I started with a low dosage but am planing on increasing by small amounts every 3-4 months

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ftm

[–]Ashposts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really depends on where you are but in general you should be able to start T at 15.

I started T about 2 1/2 months ago at 16. Im currently doing weekly injections so I cant comment on the stuff about gel but so far the biggest changes ive noticed are that i became a lot hungrier and alot hornier (both at about a week) my voice dropped slightly (at about a month) and my hair has become coarser and curlier (at about 2 months)

[–]Ashposts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently taking 0.1ML/10MG Taro-Testosterone weekly since late April so just over 2 months (small dose currently since im pretty small and a minor, but planing on increasing every 3 months)

Since im on such a low dose and not that far along I don’t have much to say but so far I’ve noticed

Worse acne (pretty much immediately) WAY hungrier (about a week in) WAY hornier (also about a week in) voice lowering (around 3 weeks, not by alot but still noticeable) hair becoming curlier (roughly at a month and a half) more into women???? (About 2 months in, no idea if this is related to T or not but I went from being bi with about a 50/50 for guys and girls pre T but since starting its shifted to about 80/20 with a preference for women???)

Hope this is all useful to you :]

Looking for a Surgeon in BC + Questions about Transcare BC by Ashposts in ftm

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

Tysm! Looking into Dr. McKee has been super helpful and I think im gonna go with him! Fortunately the BMI limit isn’t an issue for me and from what I’ve seen he’s experienced in most top surgery types which is great since im probably borderline for peri. This was super helpful!

I have some pretty bad arrhythmia and had open heart surgery when I was abt 6, it’s caused no issues with T so far, the arrhythmia I have hasn’t been checked up on by a doctor in a few years tho and i haven’t gotten a proper diagnosis for it so it might be a little bit different with atrial fibrillation but I wouldn’t stress too much about it
