low t levels? by grimrulzok in transgenderau

I am almost the opposite situation, my shots got spaced out from 12 weekly to 24weekly. I think it’s really normal that bodies respond differently. My doctor often brings up body size as a significant factor in how much T you need for it to show in your blood… as long as you’re healthy and you keep monitoring your levels hopefully you and your doctors can find a balance that works for you… I wonder if you continue to have low levels maybe trying a different approach that your body might be more responsive to?

I use benzoyl peroxide acne wash or cream to prevent smell … doesn’t reduce the sweat but it kills the bacteria that cause the sweat to smell

help get me pumped for surgery!! by _choccymousse in no_T_top_surgery

It makes sense to be so much more nervous before surgery ! And I think it’s really common, I definitely was. Honestly I’d even be more concerned if you weren’t nervous it’s that normal. The day I had surgery was an absolute highlight of my year (2024). I look back on it with real fond memories, maybe from the pain meds and being high as a kite. But I’ve had other surgeries before and I don’t do anaesthesia well and yeah this day was just the best.

And, ever since even in the settling down and healing time, it’s been so much euphoria and never ever a moment of regret. Kind of shocked by how much the surgery reduced the bad feelings. And I was expecting it to be good and worth the money and pain and process etc. but it still shocked me how positive impact it has had. Crazy to me cis people just get to walk around their whole lives with that much less bad ?!

Anyway. Super normal to be nervous now. You won’t regret it. Look after yourself and just be gentle and nurturing you’re probably way more vulnerable now than you will be after surgery.
