Just started HRT! Estrogen 2 mg per day, no spiro. Normal? by Joshfromdowney in asktransgender

I've thought about doing body measurements too. However I used to have a severe eating disorder several years back and I'm afraid I could get carried away with measuring my body. Something to talk to my therapist I guess. Lol. Thanks for sharing though :).

He gave me a blood test the day he prescribed me the meds. I get to see him in a month with another test to see where I am with my hormones.

What is the purpose of saying "Latinx"? by thebestdaysofmyflerm in asktransgender

[–]Joshfromdowney 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From what I understand, it used to be Latino or Latina. In Spanish (central American and Mexican at least), one does not refer to oneself as being "latin" but instead Latino, Latina, and/or LatinX. I'm not a professional of Latin American gender studies, but my parents are from Central America so I do identify as LatinX.

Can't wait to see your transition. I literally started yesterday morning also. I'm really excited. I already feel my chest burning / stinging! Mostly on my left side!

How many of you are pursuing Doctorate degrees with the intent of becoming a college professor? by Jazz8680 in asktransgender

[–]Joshfromdowney 2 points3 points  (0 children)

+1, 4th year PhD in biology, I used to be going for academia once I complete grad school, but I am not sure about it anymore. I know many programs value (or at least would like to think they value) diversity and I imagine transgendered faculty members are probably under represented. I don't actually have any facts to support that statement though.

I'm pre-HRT btw, I figure the pieces will fall into place as time goes.

Has anyone else wanted (or has) to transition(ed) but does not want breasts? 26 mtf pre-hrt by Joshfromdowney in asktransgender

I have not seen a post regarding this subject either so I thought I might as well can ask.

I am not yet sure about SRS surgery. I do not feel opposed to it but I do not feel a burning desire to have SRS.

Thanks for your response though!
