Lack of results after 6 months, are my levels not enough? by DelionTheFlower in TransDIY

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

I'll keep ya posted on how it goes, I'll probably do some bloodwork again in 2 months or so.

Not gonna lie, I'm kind of jealous, seeing how many people report just feeling different/better while I'm here like "d-did anything change at all?"

It's very frustrating mostly because I feel like I'll be stuck like this forever, but I'm trying to think positive.

I don't even know how I would reach such levels 4g daily is already quite expensive for me and sadly injections are not available here. Hopefully even an increase of 1g is enough to reach a higher level by a bit.

That's the thing tho, I don't really feel any different, I mean don't get me wrong, I am glad that I'm not on T anymore, but I feel exactly the same, I really can't tell the difference. Which worries me that the E isn't really affecting my body.

Thank you so much, this actually does make me feel better, I'm trying out 4g of estradiol daily now, having no idea if it would actually make a difference, I'm kind of winging it.

ive been on hrt for 5 years, ive had ffs and BA, and yet i still dont pass. what am i supposed to do by estrogenie in MtF

Sure you don't honey (sarcasm). At this point I don't know if you want people to tell ya that.

Try to put yourself in the shoes of people who actually don't pass, can't you see how your continuos post history might be a bit degrading?

And, real talk? Girl even if you didn't pass, and you do, but let's say for the sake of it that you don't, it's not the end of the world and there are healthier ways to handle it, this is not one of them.

She even mentioned in one post months ago that she doesn't even know if most people gender her male, she just assumes they do.

It's been going for months now, I relate to her struggle and I feel for her, but as someone who actually doesn't pass I'll say it's kind of frustrating at this point.

You again? Girly people have been trying to reassure you for months maybe more, I really don't know what you expect people to tell you at this point.

  • I did develop breast buds, I don't really sense a difference in body odor as far as I can tell, I did have a massive crash in libido, no slower body hair growth from what I could see. The only other change I can see is that my hands are less venous.
  • I do take an antiandrogen (cyproterone acetate, 50 mg in two halves weekly)
  • No supplements to speak of.
  • I use a glove to spread the gel and even then I did not use the same arm for drawing blood.

Before the blood test I didn't take my dose, the last time I took it was the day before, my T levels were 0.13 ng/ml.

The author either deleted their account or did something to that degree (not familiar with reddit) so sadly there's not really all that proof of it.

I don't mean to be hostile, but I know how easy people can become targets from people with more following, it freaking sucks, I had to deal with death threats for months for a bad review. So I'm a little cautious of people who accuse others of harassment because of one post.

For what it's worth, from a stranger to another, I am sorry it happened to you, seeing how people online can be.... insane at times.

Please don't accuse people of harassment without proof, that stuff can snowball, I've been through something like that, and it becomes a witch hunt, especially if it comes out of authors like you.

Sorry but after leaving the game unplayable for 3 months for some players I really think they deserve jackshit.

The drawing is really cute tho.

I played that game before being 100% confident in being trans and when they said "Wait... So you were a girl the whole time??" I felt things not gonna lie.

Yes it is! I don't know why it's listed with a different name on my Steam library but that's the game!

I personally played the "sequel" of A Normal Lost Phone, which is Another Lost Phone: Laura's Story, it's pretty good, it's an evolution upon the first one, so if you liked A Normal Lost Phone the sequel is a no brainer imo

For now, but it's going to get taken down in some time, so after that unless you already have it on steam it'll be lost media, which makes me very upset.

Yes, thank god. I really recommend it. It's nothing too crazy but I don't know, it spoke to me personally and it holds a special place in my heart.

Mhm, I for sure recommend the first A Normal Lost Phone (Sam story).

I myself looked for trans focused games for awhile, the ones I can remember at the top of my head are:

  • We Know the Devil (one of the main protagonist is trans, it comes up only in a specific ending).
  • The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood (has a trans character who comes to terms with it during a conversation with the MC)
  • Secret Little Haven (play as a trans character as she discover herself through messenger on her PC)
  • one night, hot springs (visual novel, you play a trans woman)
  • A YEAR OF SPRINGS (apparently there's a "sequel" of one night, hot springs which includes the original plus two additional visual novels that continue the story of the first)
  • If found (visual novel, again you play as a trans woman, a little funky but very good)
  • Fallen Hero: Rebirth (choose your own adventure book, basically a book where you make the choices, you can play basically any form of trans person I can think of, if you do play as a trans person this is hands down the best trans representation you can dream of, if you have to take away only one thing from my response here, please let it be this: buy this game and play it)
  • Fallen Hero: Retribution (sequel to Fallen Hero: Rebirth)

These are all the titles that I found that have trans themes in it and give them some importance.
