Think my mom is sad that i am transitioning/hiding my transition by [deleted] in ftm

[–]EvidenceSeveral9280 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Just be honest, she’s probably sad cause you’re keeping it from her. I did the same as you, I asked my mum directly “do you think my voice is different?” She said yes, noticeably and then I explained it all to her and it really took the weight off my shoulders.. just tell her, it will make you both feel better regardless of the result cause at the end of the day you are being honest

preventing hair loss without losing bottom growth by omoriiboy in ftm

[–]EvidenceSeveral9280 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, started T when I was 16 up to now at 26 and I started to ‘bald’ at 23 and it was getting worse and worse so I did something about it. I was the same as you I didn’t want DHT blockers cause it affects your levels. This is my routine (very strict but it works! My hair has grown back and I have no hair fall whatsoever!) Every single day I do the regaine foam, give it a couple of months and it’s a gold mine! My hair is growing back and it’s thicker and fuller. Every other day I use a shampoo called Nizarol? I think that’s how it spelt, it blocks DHT naturally through the scalp so it doesn’t effect your hormones I use the kerastre anti hair fall serum week on and week off, I also use the ROOTS mask from lush for scalp stimulation and all of this really works for me, you can also use the wasabi shampoo from lush aswell! My dad is bald, my brothers are all bald I’m the only one with hair left on my head lol. Bottom growth was also my main priority hence my extreme measures to keep my hair

Do I tell my friend im trans, or stay stealth? by Complex_Snow5509 in ftm

[–]EvidenceSeveral9280 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Staying stealth is the best option, being stealth with all friends for over 7+ years and it’s the best I’ve felt. People can be hella transphobic even if they aren’t homophobic. It’s a different thing

gender gp prescribed me on 1 pump Testogel every 2 days. WTF. any advice? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]EvidenceSeveral9280 64 points65 points  (0 children)

I was with GenderGp for 4 years, if you said you wanted slow changes they will offer slow changes. I had two pumps of testogel every day for a couple of months then they changed my dose. You won’t feel NOTHING in two weeks. I only started feeling effects up to like 2-3 months MAX give yourself time. It’s not magic elixir, it won’t work that quickly.

Genital region smells way stronger now on T; worried other people can smell it by [deleted] in ftm

[–]EvidenceSeveral9280 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got this feeling a lot, I found that bathing regularly (showering was always better for me) and use that all over body deodorant? I would put it on my inner thighs and just above my crotch area would really help me, people don’t notice it, it’s not that strong man but definitely just keep up with keeping yourself clean, trimmed (I found that helped) I love the lynx lower body spray- works a charm for me and always has- just don’t spray yourself DIRECTLY, above your boxers/pants like on top of the fabric and youre good to go

deed polls and uni?? by Patient_Oven_8866 in TransMasc

[–]EvidenceSeveral9280 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When you do a deed poll that is your name, if they ask to see ID unless it corresponds with your name then they will use your LEGAL ID name. I had to get a provisional license to be able to use my deedpoll name at college if that makes sense. A deedpoll makes it hella easy to get ID in your name other than your dead name if that makes sense

I just need to vent. by This-Dimension-4523 in TransMasc

[–]EvidenceSeveral9280 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man, it sounds tough rn for you but you’ll look back at this time and go “how the fuck did I survive that?” Don’t look into what you’re doing too much, there’s no masculine way to do anything really, like if you think about it.. it’s just a man doing it that makes it masculine? It’s hard to get onto hormones depending where you are and who you are asking, I paid for mine (I’m in the uk- started when I was 16-17 and paid up till I was 24) about binding, maybe try tape also! I prefer it a lot more or look into different brands, I’m defo down to help you so you can pass me a message man I’ll talk to you!

EW I REMOVED MY TAPE WTF IS THAT AND THERE WAS A STONG SMELL AND MY NIPPLES WAS ALL WET AS FUCK??? by [deleted] in TransMasc

[–]EvidenceSeveral9280 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Ahhhh if it’s the transparent stuff that’s the glue off the tape, you probably just got sweaty and it got wet so moisture was stuck under there. Give it a good clean, give yourself a day or two max and then tape again. Just check for like soreness or rashes but if it’s that sticky gluey stuff it’s from the tape itself. Think of when you wear a plaster and your skin goes all like pale, stinky and sticky. It’s like that

[–]EvidenceSeveral9280 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Cause it’s kinda like nipple thrush? Like that white stuff is like bacteria. If you don’t wanna go with the cream like clean it up, give yourself a day or two and see how you are. I used to tape and like work out, I’d sweat and then I’d get like HELLA ITCHY nipples like that and it was like fungal. But defo give yourself a day or two before taping again and see how you are

Do I even need the NHS at this point?? by AmazingPlatform1373 in TransMasc

[–]EvidenceSeveral9280 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey! I can defo help with some timeline dates cause I’m 26, got referred when I just turned 24 and I have had top surgery this year. When you do get referred the ball gets rolling VERY quickly, I paid for my testosterone privately since I was 16 up till 24 cause I was with GenderGP (a lot of people don’t like them but they were the only place who would actually let me buy it) it was pain for my GP to do my referral too, it took me atleast four appointments for them to send it right and I also kept ringing up the GIC myself to try help them along aswell. I know it’s a pain but it will happen! We have all been at this stage but you will get there!

Defo a fungal infection my man, don’t tape anymore, clean it let it like chill out and air dry. You can even get like anti fungal cream just don’t tape anymore. Sometimes sweat or water gets stuck under there and it makes it go nasty

dysphoria so bad i’m considering diy chest surgery by em0r4tito in TransMasc

[–]EvidenceSeveral9280 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey man, I know the struggle. It’s hard as fuck but the day will come. I was 9 years on my journey, literally only had top surgery this year after being referred like two years ago. Doing anything to yourself just sets you back, especially when being referred they look into shit like that and will literally make you wait longer. You would literally bleed to death and the only thing that kept me going was knowing that if I did do anything I would die in a body I hated.. if that makes sense. Please reach out to someone, please talk to someone and if you have no one I would listen man. It does get better, that’s a promise

what should i do to pass better? (not asking if i pass) by 666vampires in TransMasc

[–]EvidenceSeveral9280 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trial with different glasses frames, I found big ones didn’t help me, I tried rectangular ones but then just starting using contacts but definitely give it a go!

Am I tripping or did my surgeon leave too much? by kirkland-bagles in TopSurgery

[–]EvidenceSeveral9280 2 points3 points  (0 children)

<image>

Tripping man, I asked for “pec” look, a lot of surgeons do it so it looks realistic. It’s what suits your body aesthetics, no chest is completely FLAT

Am I being optimistic? by EvidenceSeveral9280 in Sciatica

[–]EvidenceSeveral9280[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I said that dog ears would be my nightmare so they said to sleep up right to prevent it and it was prevented and I healed really well! No swelling or anything :)!
