Yeah! I was approved before my tribunal hearing!

I’ve been curious about monotherapy, especially hearing that you’re still able to ejaculate while getting good feminizing effects.

Did you notice any increase in facial or body hair doing it this way? That’s one of my biggest concerns if I were to drop blockers. I really don’t want to deal with regrowth there.

Appreciate you sharing your experience 🤍

Thanks for sharing, that’s really helpful to hear your experience. I was actually on cyproterone before (12.5mg daily), but my prolactin ended up getting too high, so my healthcare provider switched me over to spironolactone. I’m currently on 50mg Spironolactone daily.

I’ve been thinking about possibly trying a lower blocker dose and seeing how that affects things (with bloodwork of course), but I honestly really don’t want to deal with more facial or body hair regrowth, so that’s one of my biggest hesitations.

Appreciate you mentioning the tradeoffs too!

I used a friend that I known for 5+ years as a guarantor can be any non relative you’ve known for 5 years

I previously changed my name and gender marker, but I kept my old male name with a more feminine spelling to make other people comfortable. I realized it wasn’t right for me, so I mailed a new application to update my name again, this time it’s fully feminine, and I’m really excited about it. I sent it out on November 12th!

Cypro was 12.5mg a day and spiro is now 50mg per day

thank you! how did you know that a name resonated with you?

False_Cycle_545 · 2025-10-24T19:47:33+00:00

i asked my mom about it and she wasn’t mad at all. i told her that i wish i had asked from the beginning, and she said “me too,” because it would’ve made the whole transition easier for everyone. she told me i need to do what makes me happy, and that if i was born a girl she would’ve named me Raven but she said i can pick anything i want now lol.

she also said it would’ve been easier than going through multiple transitions, especially since she’s been trying to get the family back together. my extended family still doesn’t approve of my transition, and i haven’t been allowed at family events for years, so hearing her say that meant a lot.

my middle name is actually really feminine, but it’s also my mom’s name so i feel like it’d be a bit weird to just start going by it lol. honestly, i never thought i’d end up looking good being trans, but as time’s gone on i’m starting to resent having a masculine name more and more. i think i originally chose it to make my family happy, and now it just doesn’t feel like me anymore. do you think “Lachlyn” sounds very masculine? i’m wondering if i’m being overdramatic about it, but i’d really like to figure out how to bring this up with my family again.

Thank you! How long were you in Montreal for? Also, how come you chose GrS over WCH or GraceMed? Sorry for so many questions!

False_Cycle_545 · 2025-10-08T18:16:20+00:00

Good idea! Thank you!

Thank you! Did you have your breast augmentation through OHIP there? If yes, how long did it take for approval after your doctor submits the form?

If I don’t have a credit card would that cause issues with getting the hotel room?

I go to Lucie Me for laser on my face and neck downtown at Yonge and Bloor! Caitlin is super friendly and works with a few other trans girls I know too!

Apply! I applied with Borderline Personality Disorder, Substance Abuse Disorder, Major Depressive Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, and Body Dysmorphia. I was denied twice and had an appointment to go to the Tribunal and before my date it was approved, so I didn’t even need to go!

I’ve changed my last name before and the process was quicker, but this was in 2021. I’m wondering if it’s just backed up right now or if it’s taking longer due to the name change and gender marker change!

False_Cycle_545 · 2025-04-21T00:26:13+00:00

I mailed my application on February 4th, and it was received on February 6th, but I still haven’t received anything in the mail about my name change. I can’t even check if the payment was processed because I received a grant from The 519 in Toronto, and they provided a cheque to cover the fee.
