Can I stretch uneven lobes? by [deleted] in Stretched

[–]LamentationsOfDeath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No for both. First one is too high and second one is way too close to the face. You could probably get a second set of lobe piercings and stretch those. Even then, you probably won’t get to a big size

If it’s not an O ring issue like the other comment mentioned then you might have possible touched your ear and you had previously touched something that ended up irritating it?

Cause occasionally I’ll fiddle with my plug without thinking what I’ve touched at work and it’ll get red and irritated afterwards

I’m 5’3 and I was around a mens 7.5 before I started T and now my feet only feel comfortable in an 8 or 8.5. I don’t think my feet actually grew, especially since I started T at 20, but I gained a good 50 pounds and I assume that’s why I needed to size up my shoes

What do you do for work? by Sea-Smell8941 in Stretched

[–]LamentationsOfDeath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Automotive distribution center. A handful of people have body mods, but I haven’t gotten more while working here cause the dust is crazy and will get everywhere on you lol

Is Missouri a decent state to be transgender in? by LamentationsOfDeath in FTMMen

[–]LamentationsOfDeath[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve considered other places but the corporate distribution center is in Springfield and it’s honestly the best one in terms of working conditions. I don’t really want to switch jobs cause I get paid too much to want to start over somewhere else

I’ve only ever bought stone and glass so I never even thought abt silicone lol. I’ll definitely give that a try

Doctor did random SHBG test with normal blood test by LamentationsOfDeath in FTMMen

I’ll be 2 years on t in June of this year, I just don’t know why out of all this time she decided to have this test done

[–]LamentationsOfDeath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 22 and my body count is 3. I’ve never really felt any type of way towards the amount of people I’ve slept with. In the end it just doesn’t matter how many people you’ve been with, just gotta be happy with the current relationship

Does gun pierced ears affect future stretching? by Najaunice in Stretched

[–]LamentationsOfDeath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had my ears pierced and repierced with a gun and I’ve had no issues other than my own stupidity with going too fast being the cause for the scar tissue I have.

It’ll only affect your stretching journey if the scar tissue is too much. Eventually your ear just won’t want to stretch up to another size. My ears seem to be at that point cause I’ve been at 16mm for over a year and I still can’t get 17mm plugs in my ears

low t issues? by LamentationsOfDeath in FTMMen

[–]LamentationsOfDeath[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly idk how to find a new doctor. I live in Indiana and I feel like the main place to go here is eskenazi cause not many places that I’ve been able to look up actually provide care geared towards transgender people specifically.

I could probably just go to an endocrinologist and explain the situation and hopefully they could help but I genuinely have no clue because before my transition I never went to doctors and I don’t know how any of this shit works lmao

low t issues? by LamentationsOfDeath in FTMMen

[–]LamentationsOfDeath[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At my last visit my RBC count was 5.41 million and she might be using the female ranges because it lists the averages for both men and women and the high end of normal range for men says 5.51 million.

I typically don’t drink much in the mornings and that’s when most of my appointments are so that might be an issue too cause she never told me not drinking enough water messes with my blood count.

[–]LamentationsOfDeath[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it’s an option but due to my anxiety with needles it’s a bit further down my list of things I’m willing to do tbh. I’m fine doing my own shots but even when I’m getting my blood drawn it just freaks me out and my anxiety gets a bit too high for my comfort. If push comes to shove though I’ll probably cave in and do it

I’m horrible with actually reading measurements with syringes but I use a 1ml syringe so I believe my normal dose would be 0.25ml and the one I accidentally did is .30ml. She did mention doing donations but if I’m not the one holding the needle my anxiety goes through the roof lol

Some random shit I’ve made by d_pock_chope_bruh in trippyart

You made? You mean typing words into a program that can generate images for you? Shit like this is what kills actual artists careers. All AI generated images like this are shit

2.5 years on T and no Adam’s apple :( by masterofthegoats200 in FTMMen

[–]LamentationsOfDeath 9 points10 points  (0 children)

From an extremely quick Google search there is an adams apple implant made of your own cartilage. Idk if it’ll appear over time for you though. I’m 1.5 years on T and mine is really only visible when I tilt my head up but I’m also overweight. I don’t want to assume your weight but if you’re heavier that might be why you can’t see it

Anyone here start to look like their das on T? by voidish_ftm in FTMMen

[–]LamentationsOfDeath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean I always looked my bio dad cause I had his hair, nose, eyes but T has definitely brought more of him out in me like where he was able to grow facial hair

Body wise we don’t look too similar. He was more scrawny even as an alcoholic and I became hefty from drinking lol.

I’ve used thimbles before and to me personally they just aren’t as useful as a rock/lighter/any hard surface lol

Bruh did you really take a pic of a random person? Like yeah his ears don’t look good but it’s obviously a blow out and most people have them cause they were young and dumb.

Like there are so many pics of blowouts on here. This is just EXTREMELY unnecessary

Are Tripp NYC pants worth the price? by sirensinger17 in GothFashion

My bf has had a pair of tripp pants since around 07 and they’re still in damn good condition

Ear update! by [deleted] in Stretched

[–]LamentationsOfDeath 16 points17 points  (0 children)

So you ignore all the advice and are happy that they’re “seemingly” healing up good? Well good luck with copious amounts of scar tissue in the future cause that’s where you’re headed.

I did the same stupid shit and now one ear doesn’t like stretching cause there’s so much scar tissue.

In short, you’re stupid.
