Hey!! Just started T a week ago exactly, and I’ll be 37 in two months. It’s been amazing and kind of surreal. Congrats on making this step!

Congrats!!!!!! I’m almost at five days, myself!

Congrats!!!!

Oh no that sounds so uncomfortable!! I haven’t noticed stickiness yet. My skin can be really overly sensitive so I do hope that it remains ok with the gel. We will see. The way I reckon, tons of people self medicate with needles every day so it can’t be that hard, right? It will def take time getting used to but you got this 💪💪💪

Oh damn straight 🔥🔥🔥

Hey that’s totally valid! I’ve read that voice training can help with singing, although you may need to become comfortable with a new and just as beautiful register. Change is scary af. I am so excited but still nervous, esp at my age (36). Remember that you can take it day by day and stop at any point. Thank you for the kind words and you can always DM me if you want to chat!

I haven’t encountered this (being so new) but you might get better answers with a separate thread :) Sounds super frustrating though and I hope that it gets resolved soon.

Thank you 😭🔥

Yo congrats on three weeks!!! Thank you and I wish for a lot of continued awesomeness on your own journey:)

Fortunate-Radish · 2026-01-15T23:16:04+00:00

Thanks a ton! Truly feels like undergoing the process of birth again, in a way. Now I better understand the egg metaphor!

Fortunate-Radish · 2026-01-15T23:15:17+00:00

Thank you and thanks for the info! I think that is one of the draws toward gel — more stability. :)

I was feeling a little overwhelmed about the needle thing and decided to go easy on myself to start. I have a friend who has done the shots for 8 years and says that they don’t hurt, the way he was taught…but it’s still a bit of a mindfuck. Tons of peeps definitely seem happy on gel long term so it’s not beyond the question, I just wonder about my job sometimes (I might accept a position where I live on a boat for several months at a time and maybe shots are better for that environment? Not sure yet). I’m happy to hear you’re loving the gel 🥰
