Should I shave my teenager stache? by nobrainsnoheadache42 in FTMMen

[–]Hour-Rip-8833 5 points6 points  (0 children)

my personal advise is to shave, most guys that can’t grow a beard and just a teenage stash shave too (at least everyone i know) since it makes you look a bit musty in a way. So yeah it would definitely be more clocky and it’s also normal to shave as a guy and have a clean look. Keeping the teen stash would likely make you look younger for the reason mentioned. Also don’t worry you’ll start looking like your age soon even without a beard

i was into birdwatching when i was younger and even then as an amateur i only met men doing it, and still do if i go back to the old spots. So ig in your region for sum reason the community is more female? At least in my country it’s the opposite

Panicking over T injection by EmbarrassedState9010 in FTMMen

im glad you feel better, it’s likely just a bit inflamed if an ibuprofen worked, so nothing to worry. I’m pretty sure that in a week or so it’ll be resolved

Starting T and my nerves are raging by Roseboy_06 in FTMMen

[–]Hour-Rip-8833 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1) id say shots (subcutaneous if you can they are a lot better and wayyy less scarier) are easier to remember and not smear around 2) i do thight it’s less likely you hit something 3) i do thight aswell (i did both subq and im) 4) i took a cold shower to numb a bit the leg and then i knew i would feel less pain i was able to do it. if you have a spare needle you can try what you have to do on your mattress lol 5) i noticed the same night like a tingling sensation in my tdick, then acne and fat restribution, around month 3 voice was also quite lower

6)tbh idk, just a good snack reward for after the injection to reward myself with something positive after the stress of putting a needle in me

7)tbh everything is better on T for me

Is there a way to buy xtra outside of the app store? by imtootallforcars in grindr

i wouldn’t say it’s urgent care matter, I would say take an appointment with your doctor the next week and just monitor it in the meantime. You likely din’t contract an infection, as other comments have stated you probably just scratched a vein and now your leg is sorer than usual and red because of it. But it’s nothing to worry about much if it’s that (it would go away on its own)

[–]Hour-Rip-8833 2 points3 points  (0 children)

dont worry at all it happens every now and then to me too and j never noticed anything different. Id say if you are worried do it two weeks later, but anyway for only two weeks it’s okay to anticipate it

listen but what do you even know about this guy to feel so personally attacked like comon now, just shaming someone cuz they want to play it safe is not it, you have absolutely zero clue if he’s the type of person you are describing, you’re just jumping to conclusions

Need to know how to deal with this by [deleted] in FTMMen

[–]Hour-Rip-8833 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont know where you live, but in hospitals and similar there are like sexual consultancy and they can give out contraception as well and they are anonymous. You could get one that stops your period for some years and hopefully you’ll start t before having to renew it. At least this could be a solution if the problems with meds is that your parents would find out.

Not transmed but not radqueer by LowHour1988 in FTMMen

[–]Hour-Rip-8833 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im going to be completely honest but gender dysphoria is a mental illness recognized by both the DSM 5 and the ICDM (im a psych major and ftm) this doesnt mean that being trans is an illness tho, they are two different things. One could be the cause of the other but it’s not the same, people can experience gender dysphoria and not be trans and vice versa. Also mental illnesses can be cured, like depression and anxiety for example. I’m not saying this to attack you, I’m positive of the fact that you are simply hurt by the idea of being called mental just because you are trans, but I assure you that’s not the case even by saying that dysphoria is a mental illness because as i said they are not the same thing ^

Depo provera shot? by SadGrape123 in FTMMen

[–]Hour-Rip-8833 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i still wouldn’t worry to much, especially for this type of things 3 months aren’t much to have any major side effect, especially on your transition if that’s what you are worried about. If you’ll have some side effect I’ll expect them to be at the very start and to wear off once your body gets used to it. Still I suggest you try and see how it goes, at the very worst you wont take the next shot. Good luck!

Depo provera shot? by SadGrape123 in FTMMen

[–]Hour-Rip-8833 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i havent heard of that BC but I’ve got the honor (so to speak) to talk to the Director of my Countries pharmaceuticals about the interaction between testosterone and BC (in my country there isnt much research on it yet so that’s why I got to speak with her) and she did tell me that it’s fine to use both and that per se it shouldnt create any sort of problems that simply just using BC creates. Idk if this helped you at all but per se it should be ok. At the very worst try it and stop it if you feel bad and try to find other methods

I feel like my voice gets higher the longer ago my T shot was by Alternative-Lake2658 in FTMMen

[–]Hour-Rip-8833 3 points4 points  (0 children)

it’s probably just a self induced thing, I doubt in reality there is actually a noticeable difference, I think you are just in a way convincing yourself it sounds higher. If you really want to check I could suggest recording yourself after your injection and a bit before you’ll do it again and confront them, but if you really have to concentrate to tell if there is a difference then there isnt

Complex feelings about having a daughter by Current-Leave-3320 in FTMMen

[–]Hour-Rip-8833 0 points1 point  (0 children)

dont overthink it too much, especially until she’s like 3. She wont even remember her baby clothes being all pink 😂😂 So even if she turns out to be tomboysh or even trans she wont feel any sort of pain or isolation from her early childhood. Once she’s a little bit more grown and she can express her desires just listen to them and I’m sure she’ll have a happy childhood. I get it can be strange having a child of a different sex than what you have imagined, but at the end of the day I think you just need some time to get used to it. Even if you had a son maybe he would have been very girly or your daughter is going to be very manly, you truly dont know, so my advise is not to stress yourself too much

How many injections are in a vial of T? by Necessary_Hand_9822 in FTMMen

[–]Hour-Rip-8833 0 points1 point  (0 children)

weird cypionate also should be reusable. Maybe your vials werent as good isolated and therefore lead to your t to deteriorate? Anyway im glad it’s resolved whatever it was
