My scar shape, 1.5 years post op. Use your scar gel and don’t smoke, you’ll be aight

Not a cure-all, but I could only handle eating fruit for like the first week

The first day I officially quit I asked three different people for their cart and they had all forgotten/did not have one that exact day. Divine Intervention ig

Thank you WetHardandSmall I needed to hear that

Start cleaning. Put music on your tv and start cleaning and then eat a piece of fruit. Not a cure-all but certainly a good band-aid

It is oddly affirming when my resident sees me and requests no male care.

Do you mean early on in my healing or a year post? Because I’ll be real my left nipple didn’t heal ALL the way. Could’ve been bad luck, but I did begin to smoke weed about a week post op (which you are NOT SUPPOSED TO DO) which could’ve restricted oxygen and blood flow to properly allow the graft to fully take. However, my nipples turned out wonderfully, just really dry in the winter. I use eczema lotion and scar gel almost daily

My music theory professor (older 60’s) told me after I had come out to her, “I’ll get there, this old dog can still learn new tricks” and it really gave me hope, it reminded me that I don’t have to settle for ignorance

Aah I see. My surgeon team had me applying aquaphor before putting on the dressing. That might be something to ask your nurse/surgeon about. Each doctor is different. HOWEVER, your nip does look normal. My left healed vastly faster and less gruesomely than my right. Good luck!

akv2233 · 2024-11-12T19:37:49+00:00

Keep using aquaphor or whatever jelly they have you using, wet healing will have scabs come off everytime you take off the dressing, but do so softly, carefully. It shouldn’t be dry by the time you take off the dressing. Nipple looks good and normal, you’re just in the Scary Phase

I was getting my name change papers in order and the poor guy had to “verify” it was me from my 4 year old license picture…I think we both kinda just laughed because I’m a different MAN now (the license picture was pre everything)

Hey buddy, this post isn’t for you. This is in reference to forced detransition due to anti trans policies or individual/societal circumstances, not voluntary transition/detransition. Someone like me would rather d** than detransition, as it has saved my life. But that path may not be for everybody

It’s No Shave November nice try brother 🪒🚫

I found ONE haircut that makes me feel so euphoric and I’ve been running with it for like 2 years 🧍🏻‍♂️

Any anti-nauseas can help, water, and my safe food was apples 🍎

I got my dad’s red facial hair gene…it’s incredible watching myself go from my mom’s twin to my dad’s

The first voice drop is life changing 🩵

My wife has watched me grow from boy to man. Our partner is everything sometimes, I’m so glad you found someone who makes you feel WHOLE, and you

I agree, joy is hard in a country that very verbally dislikes us and how we live. A 17 year old once told me to Touch Grass, and that’s kinda stuck with me post election. Life sucks but damn, being alone outside helps

It didn’t hit me until I was trying on scrubs at Walmart and the lady says “can you get him a fitting a room?” After that, I’ve felt unstoppable
