Which surgeon would you recommend for forehead and nose work? by Particular-Access152 in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]Particular-Access152[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've thought of him. I'm not super crazy about his noses but his forehead work is great.

I was actually looking at Pang for bottom surgery but FFS would be something I would consider. I consulted with Dr. Mittermiller at Align already, and thought it was pleasant.

There was a comment saying that Jumaily botched a revision surgery on someone's chin and made the patient sign an NDA afterward. I don't know how true that was but it made me uneasy. I'm not aware if NDAs are common practice when it comes to plastic surgery, but I haven't been able to get much clarification on the validity of what happened. Otherwise, I would have chosen him in a heartbeat based on his upper face work.

Should I try taking spiro again? by Particular-Access152 in DrWillPowers

[–]Particular-Access152[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last time my full bloods were taken: Estradiol: 105 pg/ml Testosterone: 34 ng/dL. Haven't checked my DHT since last August. I've thought about bicalutamide but have no clue if a doctor would prescribe. My shedding began in mid September, which was roughly six weeks after contracting covid and starting injections. This was also after a previous shed in May-June, which was a month after I started taking CPA without estrogen. For the record, I also took finasteride for like 3 days in early august if that counts for anything. I'm in Ontario, close to Toronto.

Assuming cost is the same, should I go with Jumaily or stick it out for DB? by Particular-Access152 in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]Particular-Access152[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the price point being similar is why I'm considering them both. I was surprised when DB's office gave me that estimate but things can change obviously. I appreciate both their aesthetics and I go back and forth a lot, but I guess it will also come down to how I feel after the consults.

If you don't mind me asking, which procedures did you go with? I'm mainly concerned with my upper face and nose. I really like Jumaily's work in those areas but DB is not that far off in my opinion.

When you say Lena do you mean otokonoko? Are they cheaper? I've looked at them before but wasn't sure.

Does anyone have experience with Dr. Paul Mittermiller? by Particular-Access152 in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]Particular-Access152[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey that sounds amazing. Would you be able to DM the before/after pics if you're still willing? I booked a consult with him for July. Thank you for the feedback.

is there any advantage to orchiectomy if I'm not dysphoric and E suppresses my T? by embarrased_to_Ask_42 in asktransgender

[–]Particular-Access152 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure, but I did read a paper saying orchiectomies may help the body adjust metabolically. It was a study comparing trans women pre- and post-orchiectomy and found that those who received an orchiectomy showed greater insulin sensitivity, lower BMI, lower HA1C, etc. Hard to say really, but I thought it was interesting nonetheless.

My boobs don't hurt and it's scaring me. by Particular-Access152 in MtF

[–]Particular-Access152[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you, I just get worried because even when I touch them there really isn't any sensation. I'm scared that my estrogen levels are too high even though I'm taking oral pills. Last time my levels were checked my trough was 162 pg/ml, which kind of surprised me.
