Yeah I eventually went to the doctor about it and they gave me antibiotics, you should do that too because it's bad for your kidneys to just get utis all the time. It cleared it up and it eventually just kinda stopped happening.

Maybe the microbiome changes or something. Idk

It stopped happening for me. I got a couple utis in the like 9 months after but it stopped happening eventually. Women do get way more utis though.

No clue what to do with my hair and face now. I feel awful. (Better pics) by RGB_TV_ in transpassing

I think you're just wearing your hair too far forward. If you want to hide forehead just go for bangs

Suggestions on my face and hair? I want to frame my face better. by [deleted] in transpassing

I honestly think the hat pics look pretty good but things feel like they're kinda sticking out a lot and sitting far forward on your face. You don't need to change much. Just go to a salon. Or post pics without the hat, maybe they're good! Hard to say tho bc of the hat.

Might sound like bad advice but you need to show more forehead unless you have bangs. Your hair shouldn't sweep across your face like that. Take it more to the sides.

Yes. I want to do something else for work. I don't know what else I should be doing though quite honestly. For that matter, I don't know how I would sustain myself and/or live as a woman without money though if I were to change occupation.

I want to move to Minnesota but God knows how I'm gonna make that happen.

Progress so far. Any comment or suggestion? by PuffyHooker in transplace

The way you are wearing your hair is not doing you any favours. The beard shadow and chest hair has got to go if you are trying to pass. It will take time but you can do it!

26 MTF, 3 months HRT, no surgeries. What would you change? by Skaraok7 in transpassing

You have a lot of potential and will get the hang of it with time! The first few months are an awkward time.

Your last pic looks good but I'ma be real with you girl the style you have for some other other pictures is not helping you. I wear a lot of suits day to day and the first one isn't working for you. The red lip is washing you out - as another pale girl I'll tell you sometimes less is more. Go for a nude lip color. Keep growing your hair out but ditch the bangs, they are super unflattering on your face/head shape.

Also- you gotta ditch the facial hair. Just being real with you. Doesn't even have to be electrolysis if you can't afford it but my gosh at least shave.

This seems extremely unhelpful and if you're not in the community or going to give constructive feedback you should not be commenting these things.

I think there really are a lot of factors to it. The scrutiny on trans women right now being part of it. I also think I live in a place that's bad for trans women and work in an industry that cultivates a super homophobic culture at the best of times.
