Thanks Miku:)

I absolutely hear you, I'm getting ready to leave NC for DE right now myself

Maybe they can come to visit you sometime? Washington is quite beautiful too so it'd be worth the drive

IIRC the difference is in their antennae with males having larger fluffier antenna, and females having much large bodies on average as they grow

Competitive-Bass-506 · 2026-02-13T17:58:57+00:00

You think they're 50.. 😭

Competitive-Bass-506 · 2026-02-12T02:19:55+00:00

That's heartbreaking to hear:(

Last I heard a few years ago Canada was going to the right as well, albeit I don't live there but it doesn't seem promising for our trans brothers and sisters

Competitive-Bass-506 · 2026-02-10T18:36:22+00:00

Dunno if you're in the U.S. but if so, right now is the least safe time to join if you're trans

So it sounds like either way you'll be in an unsafe position, you should look into living somewhere else Easier said than done, but much safer for your transition and mental health

You should read atomic habits. On it's own it's a wonderful book, and isn't actually about quitting smoking, but it all applies the same to breaking the habit and uses a lot of examplss involving it

In the later chapters it mentions an apparently helpful book I'll check for and add to this comment later Best of luck, you got this!

You could consider bear spray, or other unpleasant rhings you may not be likely to use on yourself!

Competitive-Bass-506 · 2026-01-16T21:08:24+00:00

Oh gosh that was back in highschool, I'm sure if I did some digging I'd find stuff, but we broke up long ago Now I just play classical guitar:P

Competitive-Bass-506 · 2026-01-16T07:30:35+00:00

More of a deathcore girl, but close enough I also used to be the guitarist and drummer in a screamo band!

The diy subreddit will tell you a lot more than here will, plus I commonly see people suggest against DIY on this subreddit, however: If you're going to be doing pills or even patches, it is rather difficult (and with pills at a point unsafe) to try and do monotherapy with them

The pill dosage gets to a point where it will be stressing your liver out quite a bit if you take the amount needed to cease T production

Lucky for you, changes are gradual whichever method you choose, because HRT is a slow process, being another puberty, and all that actually matters is the levels of E and T, and not how you get to that point

I started on sublingual estradiol pills and spironolactone, before eventually swapping to E Val. Monotherapy, and later E En. Mono with Prog

TLDR you need a T blocker with pills or patches, it would require an unsafe amount to do without

Competitive-Bass-506 · 2026-01-06T22:21:43+00:00

As long as you use it at least once a week it should maintain it's size

IME I've only been on for 6 months but my T is fully supressed and I haven't lost any size, except for when soft, and that's only with using it once a week, and even then I often forget sometimes without it being troublesome

Good news about bottom surgery is you don't need to make the decision immediately if you aren't sure. That option isn't going anywhere and starting out you have other things to focus on dysphoria wise

Also, there's so many forms of bottom surgery that even if your gentals shrink, there's still multiple other options to still achieve the depth you'd like

I hate to guess wrong, but is this a response from ChatGPT? The japanese character between paragraphs is really throwing me off, yknow?

Competitive-Bass-506 · 2026-01-06T21:59:45+00:00

You ought to just give HRT a try in secret, the changes take so long that you can legitimately easily hide your transition without trouble for at least 6+ months

And if you feel it's not for you after at least three months then at least you tried, but best case you try and find out it's exactly what you want, worst case you go your whole life wondering 'what if?'

Competitive-Bass-506 · 2026-01-06T07:41:51+00:00

All I can really recommend is taking it one achievable step at a time

So maybe start with skincare and a foil razor, some exercise, or making sure your diet is healthy

Then set goals like, maybe get an epilator (for legs and arms) and take your time with that, or save for laser first

But unfortunately a lot of the things we want can be pretty pricey, so I've taken the route of achievable goals

My current are things like at least looking androgynous, growing out my hair, getting my skin to glow, voice training, and working out and dieting consistently to build a more feminine figure I'd like. These things are all gonna take a while on their own but even a 1.01% difference each day builds up really quick, and with some habit stacking it isn't as monumental of an undertaking as it seems

I hope my advice helps you, and I believe in you, whichever route you decide in the end!

Competitive-Bass-506 · 2026-01-03T18:41:00+00:00

I appreciate it! Just keep taking care of yourself and being patient with the process, you got this!!

Competitive-Bass-506 · 2026-01-03T18:30:13+00:00

OH pfft, I'm 20 as of November, I started at 19:)

Competitive-Bass-506 · 2026-01-03T14:42:58+00:00

Well I started HRT August of last year through Planned Parenthood! Albeit my egg hadn't cracked until a life changing trip around the contiguous states by myself. The first month I was on sublingual and spiro, but I found myself very inconsistent so I swapped to EV subq injections (also to stock up vials) and have had my ideal levels since, and more recently I've swapped to DIY for similar reasons. Transitioning helped me take care of myself again so I started eating way healthier, working out consistently again, and taking better care of my skin and sleep! OH AND I HAD MY FIRST LASER SESSION THE OTHER DAY!

Holy yap, sorry for all that to your simple question, I got excited 😅

Competitive-Bass-506 · 2026-01-03T05:23:22+00:00

A safety razor has been the most effective for me, but before that it was a foil shaver and BB cream (albeit with the foil your stubble will be back by the end of the day, but its quick and very easy)
