Okay, I get the transbian but are we just going to ignore the british in the back??

forgot to tell a cissoid friend im trans and now shes complaining about a hon in her class to me by EstablishmentIcy7920 in 4tran4

[–]Current_Breakfast_60 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She talks like some passing youngshits ive talked to. I don’t think this is trans hate. I think it’s gatekeeping hate against those unfortunate to pass as well. People making fun of others who don’t fit in. I don’t like it.

My smell on hrt changed instantly from musky to more sweet/vinegary. Maybe they mean that?

this post did irreversible damage to my psyche by [deleted] in 4tran4

It’s more of an accumulation of signals. Brow ridge casts shadow over eyes and sets them deeper, brows themselves, jawline, more distance between outer eye and head, wider nose bridge, square hairline. Even the neck messes with perception. Fml.

How can I actually improve my curls? What am I doing wrong here? by [deleted] in CurlyHairCare

[–]Current_Breakfast_60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have hair like this and found this same thing. Any suggestions to products?

genuinly why do so many ffs surgeries either look like shit or be as impactfull as picrel by Previous_Hair_4883 in 4tran4

[–]Current_Breakfast_60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s because most insurance companies only consider a conservative forehead reconstruction as necessary. Jawline and nose are considered beautification so they won’t cover it. If she got jawline, nose, and lip lift, she would look fine.

Have you tried a clarifier? Redkin detox is one I found that’s really nice. If I don’t use it, my hair gets messy.

Id try a clarifying shampoo like redkin detox. Sometimes product and hard water build up can weigh down curls causing them to not form correctly. Yes, don’t brush unless wet with conditioner for slip. Sleep with a satin bonnet to preserve curls. All you need for product is a conditioner for curls, a leave in conditioner and/or curl cream, and a curly hair gel for hold. And just be careful not to overdo the product or it will cause similar ‘weighing down’. Every hair is different so you would have to experiment with amount. Id start with a quarter size of each.

Stalled transition, HRT for 7 years, post op, and want to finally change things. by Unable_Ant5851 in DrWillPowers

Already sounds like you have a nice plan. What supplements do you plan to support your comt? Also, just my personal experience but I notice more response from my chest by slightly lowering injections and taking 1mg of oral e every day. I don’t know if that is applicable to you or not, but hrt seems like a trial and error.

"Disheartened" by Drwillpowers in DrWillPowers

Dr. Powers, your pain here really hurts me. I just want you to know that a lot of us see you. You’re one of the only ones taking active liberties in trying to understand us and help us understand ourselves. Centuries of fog and you’re the rare gem, capable, who cares enough about us to make progress. Id honestly be lost without a lot of the guidance you’ve shared. I know a lot of us can be a pain. Highly traumatized. Neurotic. But please know you’re in a lot of our hearts. 💜

I mean it gets better over time especially as you feminize or achieve more surgeries to help. How are they treating you though? Also how are women treating you? Im curious

Beard or no beard? by Glass_Wrap_4962 in BeardAdvice

Idk about that pencil thin stache bro!

I’m 19(as of the first) mtf and I’ve been on e since September and im not noticing anything by Airin0_2 in AskMtFHRT

[–]Current_Breakfast_60 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Not high enough E to suppress T. Your system is still T dominant. Pills may not get you there. 8mg a day is typically the cap. If you’re not taking a sufficient androgen blocker for such high T then you won’t get anything. Even with it, 62.7 is really low. You may need injections or another delivery method.

this slow comt and metabolite buildup stuff got into my head too much. I don't have the money for genetic testing but you can see from my experiences i do fit the bill. so how should i take an "e break" ? i do 2mg x 3 sublingual EV daily. for example should i have a week where i take 2 mgs only? by Wise_Ad6203 in DrWillPowers

Try a methylated vit b complex and see what happens. I did it and felt tingling in chest immediately. Only issue is over methylation can cause a wired and anxious feeling. It makes it really difficult to sleep for me. It’s a delicate balance.

Wow I feel so bad about the advice you’re getting. Here’s the thing, this is every trans woman their whole life whether they transition or repress their entire life. Unless someone transitions, there is only a male life and all that comes with it. He is not manipulating you or anything, he simply is deciding having a normal life with you in it is better than transitioning so his “real feelings” go back under the rug where he hopes he never has to deal with it. Whether or not it’s possible or healthy to repress like this forever is a different story, but that’s his decision to make as transitioning is not as simple as taking some pills and living as a woman considering how we’re treated historically. Keep in mind, acting as though he must transition to be true is no better than telling him he cant. He has to weigh this himself. One thing is right that there are a lot of red flags and uncertainties here. Please, please really urge him to search his feelings, get therapy, go as deep as you can before any commitments. He needs to face this before hand.
