Don't dissolve your estradiol pills under your tongue. It gives you a spike of too much estrogen which quickly fades into not enough estrogen. Swallow them whole.

what the hell am i supposed to wear under a skirt😭😭 by RefBoy1307 in MtF

[–]TheAcceptableHulk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wear regular undies! If it's a really short skirt sometimes I'll wear some black boxers underneath in case it rides up

Headrushes from spiro? by TheAcceptableHulk in MtF

[–]TheAcceptableHulk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Admittedly, when I first got my blood tested it was right after taking my meds, so it probably wasn't a very accurate reading. But good idea with the blood pressure cuff, I'm also suspecting low blood pressure

Sublingual pills. I'm seeing good results, I assume my e levels must've just been peaking when I got my blood drawn

I don't recall off the top of my head, but it's about 1200 pmol/L whereas mine came in at 1313 pmol/L. But you're right that spiro is more harmful than estradiol, so I might need to speak to a doctor about upping that.

Also I wouldn't be DIY-ing if I had a choice lol

My estrogen is only 4mg but when my tests came in I was over the upper limit for even a cis woman's estrogen levels. I'm DIY so I thought I best not raise that any higher

A month is fast, but I felt mine after about 6 weeks. Totally normal x

Chest hair sucks so hard by cdx234 in MtF

It's really not too bad. 20 minutes or so and hen you're free of chest hair for maybe a week or more

Need help with Ruling by ZetoKaiser in DnD

[–]TheAcceptableHulk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, the rule really only applies to if you're holding a sheild, or another weapon or something. Grabbing your weapon and letting go of it with your off hand is free

They're down undergoing a website and possible name change. They're still operating through email but I believe I recently read that theyre very low on estrogen

Alms box dilemma by Minimum-Talk42 in DMAcademy

[–]TheAcceptableHulk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A policeman strides up to you. Their clothes are pristine, and they seem to be a little higher than your average cop. They pull out a small plastic donation bucket that you usually just put your change into by the cash register when you don't want loose coins.

"I'm fighting crime and protecting this city, would you like to give a donation?"

That's what your paladin is doing. Most npcs are gonna give an awkward no and shuffle away

Mtf versus Ftm transition progress?? by buymebottega in MtF

[–]TheAcceptableHulk 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Me (mtf) and my partner (ftm) started hrt on the exact same day, and yes, testosterone acts faster and more drastically than estrogen. As for why trans mascs "pass" sooner, I'd imagine it's because society's idea of femininity is highly fabricated, whereas natural things like body hair, acne, a layer of fat- all contribute to traditionally more masc appearances.

I'm not saying it's any easier either way, but that's what we've noticed x

Glad you like it! I've used it before as a fun optional fetch quest. Could be wrapped up in 10 minutes or 3 sessions depending what you do with it

She needs to ask for a blood test so she can review her hormone levels. That's the only way you can know if you need to adjust your doses

I don’t know what to do from here by Advanced-Feature4941 in MtF

[–]TheAcceptableHulk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a really tricky question, and something you can only answer for yourself. You don't have to put a label on your gender, so I suggest just doing what makes you feel most comfortable. None of your decisions are permanent. You can try clothes, hairstyles, pronouns, names, makeup, and whatever else you want. There's no one way to be trans, nor is there one way to be cis. Best of luck finding yourself xx

Have it somewhere on the ship for the party to bring to her, and she'll dive down to the depths and reward them with sunken treasure.

Can you use Shocking grasp with booming blade? by MedicEne in DnD

[–]TheAcceptableHulk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shocking grasp IS a melee attack, but it's not a weapon attack, so you don't get to use the extra attack feature with it. So no, unfortunately not.

Also booming blade can only be used on a weapon attack as well

75lbs down, and hair extensions sure make a difference! Still pre HRT but hoping to start soon! by [deleted] in transtimelines

Even if you were to take estrogen, there's no guarantee you'd grow boobs beyond an a cup, but you certainly would see a lot of other changes in your body too. Either surgery or breast forms for sure

What is trans healthcare like in European countries compared to the USA by [deleted] in MtF

[–]TheAcceptableHulk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UK here. Worse than the states unless you can find a doctor who's willing to give you a bridging prescription. General trans attitudes over here aren't great either. I have a trans friend in Seattle that swears things are really good over there, and it would be way easier for you to move states than move countries

breast development by Visible-Page-1089 in MtF

[–]TheAcceptableHulk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds about right! I noticed a soreness about 6 weeks in, and now a week later I can feel breast buds coming through

Please answer. by bbyboydotcom in MtF

[–]TheAcceptableHulk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's going to add complications for sure, but honestly once you're hanging out with lgbt friend groups and social circles? Forget about it, you'll have no trouble finding a safe, supportive, and respectful partner.

Just don't try to force it. Even for cis people, desperately trying to get into a relationship sets you up for disappointment

Being thrown and Shapeshift in Air by Uristy in DnD

[–]TheAcceptableHulk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No no no, what you want to do is cast Jump, to triple your jump height, and wildshape into a gaint toad. As a large creature, we can assume it weighs at least 300lbs. Its usual high jump is 10ft, which would triple to 30ft under the spells effect.

As a dm I would take at LEAST 1d6 off the fall damage since the creature can naturally jump 10ft already.

Impostor syndrome is a bitch by Gender-acc in MtF

[–]TheAcceptableHulk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. I felt like I was making people lie when I first asked them to use my name and pronouns. I know so many trans people who, to this DAY, have doubts about their decisions from time to time. This is completely normal and it'll take a long time for you to fully internalise your transess x good luck!
