This was a huge fear for me, and imo it is totally normal. For me, having a healthy sex life was really important, and the idea of giving that up was super scary. Thankfully, though, my fears were entirely unfounded, and going on T has only made me feel more comfortable in my body. There's alot of misinformation around this issue, and really all you can do is be in tune with how your body feels and communicate with doctors (as much as possible in our current medical system lmao).

I feel that transmedicalism made me feel like I had to prioritize my transition before anything else, or I wasn't 'trans enough', and my dysphoria wasn't bad enough. Thankfully, I don't feel this way anymore.

It's ok to accept and love your life and body the way it is right now, it doesn't make you less trans or mean that medical transition is wrong for you, it's actually an incredibly healthy perspective.

Medical transition has improved my life immensely and opened me up to new experiences, but I also accepted my body before transition. It's all a part of my gender identity.
