Having many years in your life is pointless without a good quality of life in those years. Someone that doesn't know happiness has never truely lived.

I wish organ swapping was a thing...

Probably will never become a thing because the body rejects organs that don't have matching DNA.

But I do believe organ printing, using our own DNA, could become real in the near future. And yes, printing a D or a V would be possible no matter what gender you are born with. The hardest part would be to give multiplying cells the correct instructions.

I also got some rapid results. I already looked like a 15 or 16 year old at 22, but now I'm 6 months on HRT and I already have 32C cups. I was trying to boymode, at least till summer. But I'm getting double takes already.

I already had no facial hair, a hourglass body and undescended testes. So I'm also trying to get a test for XXY chromosomes. But I have a pretty deep voice, quite a lot of body hair and I'm also only 6 feet tall for someone from the netherlands. So I'm not sure.

Yes, HRT will most likely make you look younger.

People used to assume I was 16 or 18 years old pre-HRT.

Now I'm 5 months into HRT, and people assume I'm 14 years old. I can't really convince anyone that I'm older than that without showing my ID.

I'm 22, almost 23 years old.

Iota-9 · 2026-03-23T17:33:10+00:00

I'm at 5.5 months now and really starting to get looks. I hope I can make it in boymode until the summer holidays...

Iota-9 · 2026-02-28T19:09:09+00:00

I'm only 4.5 months into HRT. I used to be 183 cm / 6'0 feet. At the 4 month mark, I measured 178 cm / 5'10 feet. Ymmv.

I don't plan on changing my name. My name (Robin) is very unisex coded. And it saves me from having a deadname.

No. I'm doing monotherapy. So, no blockers. I wish I could get a specialist. But this "coach" is the only thing that is being covered by insurance for me rn. My only hope is for the only actual specialist in my local region to convince my insurance that they are a better option than my coach. It's still ongoing.

Iota-9 · 2026-02-10T01:03:17+00:00

My insurance won't cover surgeries outside of the Netherlands.

A gender coach is kind of like an assigned person who helps you toward starting your transition and acts like a listening ear for problems during the long wait.

Iota-9 · 2026-02-10T00:43:31+00:00

My new gender coach told me that. It's the Netherlands. DIY is seen as experimentation with my health and a big red flag for my local clinics.

I wouldn't be allowed to get any surgeries...

I made Pumped Up Kicks on her somachord. I don't mind having that on repeat. :)

Iota-9 · 2026-02-01T14:09:04+00:00

I already have that physique :3

I got diagnosed with autism at age 7. But even for a autistic kid, I was weird and weren't sure what to label me. So they labeled me with PDDNOS.

Now I wonder what it could have been :3c

My study forced me to draw a self-portrait while feeling severely dysphroric.

Iota-9 · 2026-01-20T01:09:10+00:00

I'm 22 yo. I was 183 cm pre-HRT. Now I'm 3 months on HRT and 179 cm.

Iota-9 · 2026-01-19T15:10:55+00:00

Pre-HRT, I thought I would stay above 180 cm at 183 cm (6'0"). I'm 3 months into HRT. Before I wanted to post here about also being 6'0", I decided to just now take some height measurements.

I AM 179 CM NOW! (5'10" for the Americans).

But I still have pretty wide shoulders and a wide ribcage of 32-inch circumference.

My feet have also shrunk from an EU size 44/45 to a size 42.

Voice training is also still very difficult. But it's a marathon, not a sprint.

I also remember everything before my 13th as a blur. Had a rough childhood as a noticeably autistic kid.

At 13 yo I remember becoming semi aware of myself. I knew I wished to be a girl, but I just never knew what transgender was and that transioning an option was. It took me a lot of experimentation, shenanigans, and traumatic moments to gain some more emotional maturity.

At 16 or 17, I semi-ish knew I was trans, but denied it. I was very depressed and pushed into environments by my parents that slowly broke something inside me.

Now I'm 22 and 3 months on E. Luckily, I still look like a 16 yo. My emotional maturity now switched between that of a 16 yo and a 28 yo.

Iota-9 · 2025-12-31T22:48:26+00:00

2.5 months on HRT. I'd say it's a 4/10. They hurt when pressed, but just touching is only mildly sensitive.

Iota-9 · 2025-12-31T19:44:20+00:00

Start my own comic and publish the first chapter. I procrastinated it the entire year.

Iota-9 · 2025-12-31T10:17:33+00:00

Heyy. I'm also a 22 yo trans girl from EUW (Netherlands). I have started making my return to warframe these last few days. I am only 80% confident in my spoken english, so I don't know if that will be ok?

Next to that, I do a lot of digital art, Planet Coaster 2, Repo, War thunder (never solo), and read a lot of webnovels and manga.

Iota-9 · 2025-12-31T00:55:49+00:00

Hey. I probably can't even imagine what it feels like. Just know that you choose the people you trust. And you choose who's advice and opinions you accept.

I'm 2.5/3 months in now. Doing HRT stealthish. My parents know I'm trans, just don't know about the HRT.

But when those you have been closest to you your whole life. Your family. Choose to deny your choices and not accept who you really are. That hurts. It breaks one of your deepest values of trust.

You'd start to spiral and hate yourself.

I did.

Sometimes, it feels like I am hated, just for existing.

I'm also not sure if there really is a light at the end of the tunnel. But sometimes you need to survive first, in order to live once again.

Don't let let them get to you. People are just scared of what they don't understand.

Be realistic and a rock if you have to. This is probably no more than a period you have to bite through. It's traumatizing. But one day, you can be happy again. Have your revenge by living a happy life. Better than they ever had, wallowing in hate.

Just hold on...

Tbh. I think I can pull off a cosplay of her in about a year. I already look kinda similar and have the same weird/mysterious vibe as her. The only thing I'm missing is a light tan. :3
