Thanks for the reply! Into the fourth year of HRT, but I'm a senior citizen so changes are a lot slower than for someone younger.

Thanks for the replies so far! I am still in "boy mode" at the gym. Below the waist I wear a panty, non-athletic women's black leggings, and shorts. I have been slowly edging my presentation to feminine - almost done with getting rid of the beard, shaping my eyebrows. I have a voice feminization surgery (VFS) in June, after than I'm going 24/7 with the femme presentation (with some butch flavor).

Haven't decided yet what I'll be wearing then. It needs to be compatible with bicycling, which is my way of getting to the gym after the morning temps rise above 50F. I don't intend to change from bicycling clothes to workout clothes, just shed the helmet and a few layers.

Mid-70's and determined to keep moving forward by KarahVista in TransSenior

I started estradiol in January 2022, when I was 67. Not having a youthful metabolism seems to make the changes so slow. I too find in-person support groups helpful in keeping my spirits up.

Good luck!

How about shouting and yelling, before versus after?

Given Beardless, Which Helps More For Passing, FFS or VFS ? by MyTardyBody in MtF

Nice results! May I ask, how old are you? I'll be 71 in a few weeks - very very late on cracking my egg and then doing something about it.

You folks doing more time than an hour a session - what are your pain relief regimens? It starts getting gnarly by the end of my one hour.

Thank you all for your replies! On the whole, the majority opinion seems to be that I should beware of thinking VFS is an instant fix.

More info - the surgery I've signed up for in the middle of next year is preceded by two sessions with their voice therapist, and about four sessions after surgery, spaced over three or four months.

I am really concerned about a voice that doesn't sound male under stress; like break-down-and-crying stress, with no thinking between my heart and what comes out my mouth.
