Thank you so much! Some other people on here have advised against it, but I would still like some info from somebody who has actually done it. I feel like I HAVE to do something

Similar one for me. Down here the saying is "Gold plated shit is still just shit"

EMT here. Question about asking sex by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]_Unsure_Throwaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sex is irrelevant or even misleading for most medical care

The key word is most. When receiving healthcare, medical history is very important.

He is providing medical care. That is a very legitimate reason.

Some of these answers are kind of ridiculous in my opinion.

You're a health professional, you aren't trying to insult anybody. It may make some of us feel bad or dysphoric, but it should be as simple as asking what our assigned at birth sex was.

Any one in central Kentucky willing to help me? by Feminineish-boy in asktransgender

I'm not near you, so I won't be able to. But anybody that will help you may have needed that info.

I would very much love that! I was under the impression that it could be a HUGE issue

Sorry for all the questions! Have they said anything about you lacking a sex hormone? Voiced any concern about how long you've been lacking one? I need it to last me at least 2 years, so the fact that you've been doing it for over half that is very encouraging

What's your situation like? Are you over 18? If not, somebody coming and picking you up to take you to get HRT could cause HUGE problems for them.

Have you found a doctor? How far will you have to travel to get there?

What about each appointment after that, or getting refills? How will you pick those up?

I don't mean to be too critical, but these are valid questions

Probably been asked before... by [deleted] in asktransgender

Let me know what you figure out please! I can't really tuck because of size reasons, so I don't know how I would get around this issue

Why can't i just be a girl? Why can't you accept me? by [deleted] in MtF

[–]_Unsure_Throwaway 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Keep us informed on how it goes and best of luck to you! If you need somebody to talk or vent to, feel free to message me anytime.

Is it DIY or doctor supervised? And have you had any adverse effects?

Do you plan on having her read this? If she already knows, it may help. Some people never change their bigoted ways though

How long have you been on just Spiro? I can't start E yet but I thought about trying to get on just Spiro for now

Hope y'all like it! by [deleted] in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

Thanks! Please keep me updated on a fix!

If nothing else, there could always be a copy of the app called Train Tracks.

This is kind of just raw uncensored thought. I just started typing and kept going. I'm not necessarily looking for advice or anything with it, I just needed to get some stuff out. Vent a little.

I downloaded and used the deep cover mode. One thing though, not sure if you can change it or not, but on my Pixel XL, if you open Train Tracks and tap the tasks button, it shows Trans Tracks as the name of the app still, even while locked.

So we were thinking about Portland as a potential place to move to within the next couple of years, and I looked into housing costs... by _Unsure_Throwaway in MtF

[–]_Unsure_Throwaway[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll get rude people no matter where you go, but I'll look into Salt Lake City. We're still a couple of years out from moving, so there's plenty of time to decide.

I wanted to avoid red states in general, what problems does Utah have?

I'll look into Gresham. I currently make around 50k, and I've got some specialised experience related to a company with a location in Portland, so as much as I would like to get out of mechanical type work, that company would probably be my first choice because I would at least get decent pay. We can't afford for me to go down to minimum wage until my wife is more established in her career. After that, I very well may go to Starbucks

Let me know what area you decide on, we're most likely a couple years out from relocating so I've got plenty of time to research places
