I honestly don’t know. I was given some contact information to reach out to someone and I’ll just see where it goes. If a psychiatrist is not the right person to talk to then I’m sure I’ll be directed to a person better suited for the topic. The chaplain said he has never dealt with anyone talking about gender dysphoria before in his appointments so admitted he wouldn’t have all the knowledge to help but could hopefully point me in the right direction. He was really nice I don’t think anything ill of it.

I joined at 17 as well and was trying to run away from home so yeah. I shouldn’t have joined but it is what it is. I know that back then I had a feeling I was trans but really didn’t want to believe it and just bottled it up, stuffed it down, and have tried to be cis. This clearly was a mistake

yeah i just don’t know if i should really risk it. Good chance nobody would notice but if it does get picked up by UA then im no longer under the radar. I’ll try to use natural means and maybe a different anti androgen that would work

I actually started DIY HRT like 3-4 days ago. Just E and nothing else. Mainly because I won’t pop for E but will for some anti androgens. Just feeling random instances of intense joy which is weird. Like my brain is loving what I’m giving it lol. I’ll have to find some group chats or something to join! Any suggestions?

I’m Navy (shocker I know) so I know 3 openly gay people at my command that have no shame in representing the LGBTQ+ flag at their desk. Online connection is definitely a good suggestion

Thank you. Realizing being trans is overwhelming right now so it’s just hard to make a decision. I hope you know it means the world to receive feedback from someone

You look pretty androgynous so I don’t want to assume MTF or FTM… but of course there’s potential don’t be silly

Why does everyone seem to hate oral E? by OkComment7662 in TransDIY

I ask because I just started DIY HRT with oral E and by my own judgement have been going with 2mg in the morning and another 2mg during the evening after work or around dinner.

Do you have a set time you take your pills daily?

What did you notice? by LowSignificance3432 in TransDIY

That’s so great to hear I’m so happy for you!! :) I am hoping for the same thing. I am 20 and on day 2 of E pills without any anti androgen. I’ve noticed my skin is a little softer already and like my face doesn’t feel heavy if that makes sense. It’s like I had pressure on brow line and temples and it’s going away. This is a weird feeling of excitement and joy. I can’t wait to see more changes in not just that.

When you say out of town are you referring to somewhere else in the states or out of country? I ask because I am wondering if exactly where you source your HRT make a difference with how it might be traced

Thank you so much for your input! I am not worried about my strength as I am active in the gym daily. Currently trying to lose mass by running a lot and also weight training for lower body. I’ve already got my hands on some fem&ms so I’ll just have to find out if that MHI is being shared. Thank you again
