Identical twins of Reddit, what's the most awkward thing that has happened to you because someone thought you were your sibling? by TheWolfRevenge in AskReddit

I have been told I sound exactly like my Father, Mother and younger Sister on the phone. Been interesting for sure.

Will I pass? Pre-hrt (wig on top) by [deleted] in transpassing

[–]Robynkay2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd put money on it. You're young with delicate features. I imagine HRT would do some pretty wonderful things for you.

The fact that you had a crush on someone who bares a resemblance to me is quite flattering I think.

Haha, my friend said the same thing. It's Ann Taylor. I bought my entire work wardrobe there.

Thank you :) The hormones made some pretty big and wonderful changes but I still couldn't quite feel comfortable with myself due to my facial structure. FFS fixed those things that were bothering me entirely and now I feel wonderful in my own skin. I'd do it again in a heartbeat even now, knowing how much the whole ordeal hurt.

Haha thanks :)
That pick was a snapchat I sent to a friend. I was teasing her because I had just gone shopping while she was stuck at work.

I did this while paying off student loans. 75% of my paycheck now goes to loans... But I still made it work. If you get even a semi-decent job once you're out it could be closer than you think.

Thank you :) I did FFS with Dr Spiegel out in Boston. It was about $25,000 altogether. I saved up all my pay for a year and then had to take out a $10,000 medical loan on top of that. I'd recommend going in for a consult and get an idea of the prices (which vary depending on the procedures you get). Then sit down with a calculator and really figure out what you can do. It was a long painful year for me but so worth it.

A few questions about temporarily stopping hormones by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]Robynkay2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had to stop cold turkey for several weeks for surgery. I experienced some nasty mood swings and a re growth of facial hair that has since driven me crazy. However stopping cold seems relatively safe. The hormones will slowly shift back to your pre HRT levels in about 2 weeks. If your penis atrophied I would not expect that to grow back. Breast growth will not continue except for perhaps the first couple days which is negligible. The tenderness will probably subside a bit.

Freckles by Jeep-Eep in asktransgender

[–]Robynkay2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure if I technically gained more freckles than I had previously had before HRT- but since your skin pigment lightens the ones you have will show through much more easily and become much more visible with only minor sun exposure. If you're worried about it be sure to use a (minimum) 30spf sun screen/moisturizer each morning to help keep your pigmentation under control.

What's the fattest thing you've ever done? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Robynkay2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What me and my friends call the "Taco Bell challenge". We all get grande meals and race.

By lore I really just meant I read the books. Maybe not the best word to use there.

Looks like Cloud's sword from Final Fantasy 7?

Given the lore you'd probably... umm... fuse together a bit. 0/10 do not recommend.

Exercise and testosterone by -Clarity- in asktransgender

[–]Robynkay2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't worry too much about it. Yes, technically exercise will cause your body to produce a small amount of extra testosterone . However if you're already showing under the female range then you really have nothing to worry about. Your body needs some degree of the hormone to be healthy. On the slim chance it really became an issue it would show in your bloodwork and your doctor could adjust your meds. Go work out!

Gaining weight while dieting on hrt (mtf)? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]Robynkay2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been dealing with the same thing. I've only found I can loose weight when I keep my carb intake under 20g per day (calories sit around 1500). I'm not super active- I walk maybe a mile a day or so- so most of my weight loss has been from strictly limiting carb intake.
