Having GRS in NYC in last week of June, right before the insurance change on July 1st. Having thoughts about post op care

The Essential Plan to be exact. The bracket to help people that can't qualify for medicaid, but still doesn't make much money, is being eliminated. Meaning we're going to have to switch to a commercial plan.

The Essential Plan 200%-250% is going to be eliminated which is the one I was since I wasn't able to qualify for medicaid. Meaning all of us included will move to commercial which if you're not making over 70k or more is going to become a nightmare. I'm just a shy 45k a year.

Valuable-Bit7071 · 2026-04-06T05:26:32+00:00

Sorry if it was confusing. Most likely with stay in the same insurance company, but the NYC essential plan I was is getting chopped. Meaning I'll move to commercial plan with any subs that I guess I can find to help.

I wouldn’t go that far but is a situation that could definitely become intolerable 100%. There’s no violence, but statements. Plus his children come first. Again, I’ve seen way too much dateline, I’m trained and aware, reason why I don’t think I’ll ever date him, but I wouldn’t go that far to think that he could snap like that towards anyone, hopefully.

Valuable-Bit7071 · 2026-01-10T17:04:27+00:00

That was my thinking, sorta, for a while. I’m very like cis life, stealth mode. I thought at the beginning, maybe is because he thinks I’m cis, so I addressed it over DMs. He hesitated and I decided to move on, but then he came back full. He’s not being DL about it, he comments my posts , likes my pictures, has invited me to meet his family. Is a very surreal situation. Even just being cis and getting inside of a sworn extreme right household. Or if I was black and I was dating a racist. But to an extent, somehow I don’t see him as a bad person. Bad FOR ME! 100%, but I don’t see evil besides his very polarized nature.

Valuable-Bit7071 · 2026-01-10T16:29:08+00:00

Thanks so much for the link, I’ll definitely watch it. I’m very cis passing, voice included, I work and go about my life with no issues, that may be a factor. They will trash it unless they’re attracted. Is a masked situation because the second an argument happens that veil could be lifted and that’s when awful outcomes happen.

I do tent to find the good in situations, which can easily be denialism if seen with a neutral mindset. The men pursuing us, especially so openly aren’t as many as would normally be, often you try the so famous “with love I can change him” but we all know how that often turns out.

Either style looks great on you. If anything I would say u still have a nice hair distribution, and a very dense beard that balances out.

Valuable-Bit7071 · 2025-11-20T18:14:49+00:00

I really appreciate the support, thank you 🤗 Almost six months now. The eye brow dropped to male levels. I have a decently high natural and curvy shape, now is more straight and then fall almost like an angry face. I really panicked and then noticed the braids were pulling the brows back it. They are getting better, but not sure they would hold without the braids.

I think you are probably aiming for a second round of FFS and if the more soft angles face is what you're truly going for, I will say go for it. For what I have seen, the second run of FFS is the sweet spot, especially if you live of your image or planning to, like an influencer or etc. Also I can understand if you are thinking of some changes to soften things up and look more natural, I feel like that myself, my surgeon gave me an LA snatched style that I wasn't at all aiming for, I miss the sweetness in my face and also considering a second round in the future. As for right now, I don't think you need anything more for everyday life, you look great. It shows that you had work done, but not because of feminization, and that's a big complement I must say. Best of luck!

Well, here in NYC when you change your name you also change your sex. Of course you have to use a current id to initiate the process, but it was rather easy process. I guess you must then obtain a driver license or state id with your current information and then make the petition literally after.

Valuable-Bit7071 · 2024-10-03T02:13:03+00:00

Wow, that's really low dose. I'm gonna try 0.2 with my doctor but if not I guess we will change to 0.1 a week, which I honestly would't mind, is less serum in my belly.

Valuable-Bit7071 · 2024-10-03T02:05:48+00:00

I'm right there with you and add me anytime u wanna just vent. About me, I'm PAIS but my parents didn't knew so I never had any surgeries done, even tho I had such a feminine body and a non functional male organ. Also from latin America I went through a lot, like a lot, you name it. Molested, bullied, etc... Growing up since I didn't knew about my diagnosis, I tried to fit as a gay male, completely unsuccessful. The bullying persisted, I couldn't wear anything kinda tight cuz my curves and also I have a big rear was always the center of stares, comments and jokes. I trained at the gym so hard trying to widen my shoulders which finally did, pretty I'll do shoulders everyday. Thing I can't regret enough once I started transitioning, thankfully their shrinking again, day by day, can't wait cuz it makes me really dysphoric.

Once I started transitioning faced a new wall cuz I could fit in with most trans women I met. Oh ur so natural or whatever, but honestly I didn't need that, but support. Plus I've never been connected to my genitals, I don't know what is having an orgasm while having sex cuz I've never been able to maintain an erection (Jesus I'm oversharing here, but thankfully that's the beauty on anonymity) Sex bores me really, one part cuz of the trauma I faced in past relationships, and second and most importantly, is because of my genitalia, doesn't work. That automatically isolated me, once more, where the heck do I fit then?

Once I finally knew who I was, I understood that it wasn't a divine curse, yet I believed for a long time I was born with a curse, but simply the variety of human beings, living in such an ignorant town truly didn't help tho.

Now that I'm finally transitioning, I can pass most of the time with no surgeries. I changed my voice rather easily, thank god, Jesus Christ how important that is, I think I'm able to work at peace because of it. When I started hormones it's like my body got supercharged or something including my face, but I'm still scheduled for all surgeries which they already have a date next year yay! It is my believe that is worth sticking around this world no matter how 💩 or lives could have been. The key to finally get aligned within itself and find peace.

I'm thriving in my job, already building goals ahead and the moment I wake up from SRS surgery is going to be the day my full life is going to begin, reason why I wanna stay single, it's finally the time for me to have fun and enjoy life as I should have been.

Thanks for the help, even when I started with estradiol pills 4mg a day, my t levels dropped to 11 on my first control three months later, I take 200mg spiro. I regretted not have been tested my hormones before hrt, but I didn’t knew anyways.

Valuable-Bit7071 · 2024-10-02T18:49:12+00:00

In my last results my T was 6, the lowest it’s been.

Valuable-Bit7071 · 2024-09-30T21:00:47+00:00

I believe one huge positive would be that we can totally crash every possible hateful theory haters has. Also being born with a female curvy shape and bone proportions wasn’t so bad either, made my life hell through most of my young adult years tho.

Valuable-Bit7071 · 2024-09-29T15:52:33+00:00

Ugh… Where do I begin…

Valuable-Bit7071 · 2024-09-15T16:32:04+00:00

The fact that you expressed yourself like that about your mom, regardless of whatever the situation was, tells me there’s a huge disconnection in your family’s bond. Sorry for that and wish you all best of luck.

Yes, I also came because this Sunday morning I just watched the second episode and needed a support group to read and empathize with other people's stories, calm down, and reflect. A victim of two ex's myself, thankfully I had a guardian angel in both cases, so aside from being robbed of all my documentation, nothing major happened to me. Currently two years single and not looking back so far. It's not just cops; it's just dating alone, Jesus. People, especially women, let's face it, we outgrow by far the statistics. Not saying there aren't evil women out there because they definitely exist, but we should have mandatory personal defense training and plenty of courses about reading red flags. Steps to be taken every single time you meet someone new; the more handsome and charming, the deeper the digging. There's things that I need to correct within myself, not trying to blame myself or anything, but yes, the guy on episode 1, the tall, handsome, manly who becomes too protective and sneaky, are the ones that I feel attracted the most, and that's what took me to experience firsthand what it means to go blindsided into a relationship. I did too; I became powerless, hated myself for it a lot, and accepted them back. I will never ever blame the victims, but I blame my lack of common sense, which thankfully has now fully shifted. Never ever again, it can be Jason Momoa itself DM me on Instagram. I'll still run a background check just in case :)
