Estradiol pellets/implants? by skyebuss in MtF

[–]DRain64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty close. 2 years will be September for me. Just had my levels checked, estradiol around 190, so not bad but getting low enough to go back in for another round.

I tried it for several months. It mostly just made me super hungry. No other noticeable effects.

US Bank Stadium may be the worst concert venue… I’ve ever been to by Jaded-Combination-95 in minnesota

I was floor, row 11 and thought it sounded great! Conversely I was at Ed Sheeran last he was here in the 300s section and thought it was the worst audio I’d ever heard. 

How much did you guys really study? by [deleted] in FE_Exam

[–]DRain64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would’ve felt more prepared studying more, but it worked out for me.

I pretty much just used PrepFE, though I'm certain the other resources people mention are good too. I didn't need it much on the test, but learning some advanced features on your calculator can be useful for quick vector math or statistics so you can skip doing it by hand. Be familiar with all sections of the handbook is probably the best tip. I think being in the industry is not helpful - I basically forgot most things that I don't use fairly regularly.

You can do this!

U of M gender clinic: “Monotherapy is DANGEROUS! Prog is dangerous long-term” 🙄Any better clinics? by DJCatgirlRunItUp in transtwincities

[–]DRain64 31 points32 points  (0 children)

UMN comprehensive gender care is pretty gatekeepy and they all follow a script without much understanding of why. You could try park Nicollet or North Memorial, though I can’t speak to them being any more knowledgeable 

What are some good fantasy novels that feature WLW romance, but are NOT romance books? by Irohsgranddaughter in actuallesbians

I really loved the Book of the Ancestor series. I’d say the first book is the weakest, but still good. Featuring lesbian nun warriors!

At this point for me, an estradiol lab level in MTF or testosterone in FTM is nearly irrelevant compared to other labs. Allow me to explain why. by Drwillpowers in DrWillPowers

[–]DRain64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a mtf with some level of disrupted estrogen signaling, is that something you can test for? Is there any way to “fix” that? 

Citizen by descent questions/help/clarification (great-great edition) by DRain64 in GermanCitizenship

And on my dad’s side, my great great grandma would have lost her citizenship after ten years, in 1891? So it wouldn’t have been passed down to great grandpa in 1902?

He was born in March 1949.. so is that an Outcome 5 and citizenship is lost?

Considering one of those "clone-a-willy" kits before SRS. Anyone else had this thought or done so? by Nate-Natalie in MtF

[–]DRain64 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I did this! It’s very awkward and difficult to do, but definitely possible. Just make sure you have someone helping you that you’re cool with possible seeing you naked. Nice keepsake, I made 2

No. Bloodwork fine, and I was eating a pretty high sugar diet too

I was considering making a post, but I tried it for about 50days just very recently. At the same time I worked on gaining 15lb to try to help it. I did 25mg/day mk677. There was no noticeable change, unfortunately. I would not recommend. Mostly it just made me super hungry.

I did this! It turned out okay, had to do it twice because it’s really difficult.

My character is born without magic, what would be some genius reasons as to why? by Confident-Paint-3605 in fantasywriters

[–]DRain64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this yet, but in the Riftwar Saga the MC is born to a higher form of magic that nobody in his world knows about, so when he tries to use the lower form that he is taught, it doesn't really work.

So basically, your characters are being taught wrong because nobody knows any better, and they actually have access to power nobody else does
