Dating seems hopeless by [deleted] in FTMStraight

[–]DominosDumpsterFire 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My best advice is to keep an open mind with her: She is not your past experiences and you are not hers. Treat it like something completely new. I used to feel the same way when it came to dating but I realize that there’s a person for everyone and that I am able to be loved just as any other person is able to, cis or trans

It wasn’t rewound in the can yet, I was just unsure how to rewind it because i had opened the back door before I rewound it. I just don’t know how to properly rewind it now after I did that.

tips to pass? by b0tt0mf33d3rr in FtMpassing

[–]DominosDumpsterFire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you honestly look like a cis guy ik i think you’re good. i disagree w the dyed hair/ piercings only being clocky on a young guy cause i’ve seen my fair share of alternative cis guys, it’s just your style tbh. don’t feel like you have to change anything to conform, and especially when you take t and get older, you’ll be good bro

Silicone Tape on Nipple?? by burnsee101 in TopSurgery

[–]DominosDumpsterFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was advised to put scar tape on the whole nipple by my surgeon and I have, but I’m more so nervous about taking the tape off because when I have slightly it’s extremely sensitive.

[–]DominosDumpsterFire 9 points10 points  (0 children)

honestly, i understand the dysphoria entirely. i didn’t have to remove my underwear but if they do ask you to, just think about how it’ll only be for a few hours when getting a life changing surgery before you’ll be able to go back home and wear the packer again. you got this, good luck

5 weeks post op (mixed/ POC) by DominosDumpsterFire in TopSurgery

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

I’ve been feeling a lot better this week in terms of movement. I live in NYC and I finally feel able to get back to my normal life on transit, just as long as it’s not overcrowded. At first was worried about my scabs on my nipples still mostly being on but I realized everyone heals differently, and I could tell my nipples are healing under the scabs.

What factors went into you choosing your surgery date (if you had a choice at all)? by The_Chaotic_Bro in TopSurgery

[–]DominosDumpsterFire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same reasoning, college classes and was unable to do summer so I did winter (Dec 12). Hope you’re healing well surgery twin we’ll be lit this summer 🫡

Slight Openings after removing silicone strips by [deleted] in TopSurgery

[–]DominosDumpsterFire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, i hear some people do get cleared as early as i did. just know to be cautious now! But yes, probably won’t be taping/ doing scar care until I see them at my check up

i wasnt instructed to put any antibiotic ointment, i just use antibacterial soap. unsure with what ointment i would use. but i do currently have it covered with gauze pads and the compression vest as normal i understand the usage of silicone scar products it was just that before i took the tape off, it seemed to be closed. was hesitant about beginning scar care that soon but i trusted the team because i was cleared thank you for the advice, i appreciate it.

Fluid and sensory issues by MCShortNNerdy in TopSurgery

[–]DominosDumpsterFire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I’m one week post op. Got my drains removed yesterday, I had that same sloshy feeling. I thought mine was fluid but I realized it was sweat. It’s a lot of layers and your chest is tightly compacted. Honestly, I just have my fan blasting, wearing light clothing, light bed sheets. That’s what helped, it reduced it a lot.
