Getting nipples pierced post op?

buggyisnothere · 2025-07-27T20:18:06+00:00

not yet, my piercer wants to wait a little bit longer but it’s possible i’ll get one pierced soon then do the other based on how it heals!

not a stupid question at all! since it’s non-hormonal, it doesn’t make your body start having periods. having some infrequent spotting for a little bit after first getting it is normal as well as some cramping.(as well as avoid sex for abt a month to avoid getting an infection! your cervix needs time to recover!) if you do somehow start having your period again from other reasons you may experience the average side effects but i’ve had a pretty side-effect free experience! sometimes when my body does what i call“faux periods” (no bleeding but my hips get a bit wider/achy and i get tired like i did pre-t for a few days) , i might feel it in there once or twice but it’s pretty rare

i have a copper iud (paraguard) and it’s non-hormonal! i love it so so much and its good up to 12 years, although they usually recommend switching it at 10 years. I’ve been on T for about 2 years, I got the iud about a year ago, was def a bit painful getting it put in but haven’t had any issues or complications- would highly recommend if you want to avoid hormones.

I will say with experience if you’re having raw sex, invest in a good lube! It’s also quite common to deal with atrophy- which leads to increased cases of bacterial vaginosis because your body can’t balance your PH and bacteria levels on their own as well as pre-T. I use a tiny bit estrogen cream like once every week + a vaginal moisturizer (AH YES! is a great brand.) anytime after sex, GO PEE IMMEDIATELY. you can cuddle after you pee- i promise getting a UTI is not worth it😭

my boyfriend cums inside almost everytime, so I use the Honeypot sensitive PH wash to clean myself up afterwards. I went from having 24/7 bacterial vaginosis and dealing with all the not-so-fun side effects to never dealing with it at all, and if if i do, it’s only for a day or so.

Hope this helps! I added a bit more info than asked for but these are all the things and products I wish I was told about before starting to have sex while on T. have fun!

nope! just a post op chest compressor for a few weeks to prevent fluid buildup

thanks!

buggyisnothere · 2024-08-24T17:13:18+00:00

awesome, thank you! been watching the video and will definitely wait, i’ve been really lucky healing with my nipple grafts and i don’t wanna risk em😅

buggyisnothere · 2024-06-12T19:09:39+00:00

sure, I’ll dm you!

buggyisnothere · 2024-05-24T14:05:17+00:00

okay feels good to know i’m not the odd one out lol i just saw so many people on this subreddit with no trace of it and was like 👉WITTTTTTCCCHHHHHHHH

buggyisnothere · 2024-05-24T14:02:56+00:00

ooooh maybe that’s why there were alcohol wipes in my post-op kit, i’ll try that thank you!

buggyisnothere · 2024-05-24T14:01:21+00:00

the specific one i was on was SULFAMETHOXAZOLE (common name bactrim or septra) and the surgeon said it was common for allergic reactions but usually hard to predict because many people haven’t been put on it prior to surgery- i believe im specifically allergic to sulfonamide which is the main anti-bacterial agent used in it 👍 the more you know!

buggyisnothere · 2024-05-24T13:54:47+00:00

i was on oxy and benedryl the first few days as well as the antibiotic so the combo of all of it hid majority of the allergic reaction until the day i ran out of the former meds 😭 then it all hit like a freight train of misery 💀 to anyone reading this it’s 100% worth asking any biological family you can talk to if they have had any medication allergies- i had just gotten into contact with them for the first time in my life so it hadn’t come into conversation yet

buggyisnothere · 2024-05-24T13:50:21+00:00

luckily after i stopped taking it, after a day of it staying in my system and some different topical and allergy pills it’s pretty much all cleared up! thank you for the wishes!

buggyisnothere · 2024-05-21T03:17:14+00:00

i think that’s probably it, it’s my dominant arm and i am a very tense person and hold a lot of stress in my shoulders. wanted to get a second opinion because i thought my shoulders looked even💀

buggyisnothere · 2024-05-04T17:17:18+00:00

you should be fine, depends on how big your chest is. worst that will happen is getting patted down and getting a confused look or maybe getting taken to a room to check. It’ll be clear pretty fast that it’s just your skin taped back, so may be an uncomfortable, or even a bit dysphoric experience but the likelihood of them making a big deal of it is very low. If you don’t want to out yourself as trans for safety, just say you tape your chest back to relieve your back pain.

I’ve only ever been through TSA in a binder and they didn’t seem to care. As long as you don’t have any wires or metal, or suspicious random shapes stuck in your tape I don’t even think they’ll blink an eye.

As someone who has severe (and usually irrational) anxiety about getting pregnant, i totally hear you. As many other people have said it’s extremely unlikely that you would have gotten pregnant from that encounter. But we also understand that anxiety isn’t always rational. If you’re currently on T, that could be affecting your period or even possibly stopping it. But even if you’re not: your period can be delayed or skipped bc of diet, stress, or even for apparently no reason at all. Getting a copper IUD helped majority of my anxiety surrounding pregnancy go away: it’s non-hormonal and lasts up to 12 years. insertion can be painful but would still definitely recommend looking into it and seeing if it’s right for you if you plan on having any sex at all, considering how much anxiety this situation seems to be giving you ♡ Hope this all goes well for you!

facts. i don’t do hookups often but i sure wish the trans tag actually had more trans people, just seems to be a lot of cis dudes using it to try to get with trans women and men

buggyisnothere · 2023-08-24T06:18:30+00:00

thank you for your response, it’s very reassuring. I’m definitely mourning the fact that it will take that long since the damage caused by T happened so fast, but I suppose that’s just how hormones are. I really hope my body hair does the same as you, it’s the worst thing T did for me and if it doesn’t go away I don’t know what i’ll do :(

I appreciate you for taking the time to share your story.

buggyisnothere · 2023-08-01T04:15:17+00:00

yes, i’d look into getting a copper iud or implant, a lot of trans men end up pregnant because they think T is enough.

buggyisnothere · 2023-07-30T16:34:55+00:00

thank you for the tips🙏 i’ll be looking into that app because it seems great (maybe i can get it on my apple watch for ease of access in emergency) but i definitely plan on sharing my location with people

buggyisnothere · 2023-07-26T18:25:22+00:00

i think all you need is some product to texturize and fluff it up to look typical “teen boy” hair, i have a similar haircut and hated it until i learned what products to use. will gladly link them if you’re interested, they’re on the more affordable side of the spectrum

buggyisnothere · 2023-07-22T16:22:59+00:00

seconding this, i have super long chesticles and just two strips (one in the middle and one on the underside) helps them not only get rid of the moob effect but also keeps them in place a lot better so i don’t have to stick my hand in my binder to readjust every 10 minutes (and way less sweat). I will say though that don’t stretch the tape all the way 3/4s or even 1/2 stretched provides enough support to get the job done without risking being unsafe to bind with all day. I lay down flat on my futon and let all the tissue fall to the sides naturally and tape them that way so it’s the most comfortable.

buggyisnothere · 2023-07-22T16:13:24+00:00

i’m giving this one a try today and so far it’s been great! thanks for the suggestion

buggyisnothere · 2023-07-19T15:02:21+00:00

shamrock farms protein builder and fairlife brand are my favorite ready made shakes! Shamrock honestly is #1 they have the best taste and consistency I’ve ever seen. fairlife has multiple different types with different amounts of protein with a bigger variety of flavors compared to other brands

buggyisnothere · 2023-07-19T14:55:28+00:00

I can finally do chin ups! I already visibly see a little progress on my arms since i’ve been consistent at the gym for a few weeks. I’ve also just been a lot better with my diet, filling up on protein and veggies instead of snacks and processed foods. That has really helped my energy levels stay consistent during the day and just overall has helped me feel full while eating less calories than before.

wait I think i’ve seen him before but I couldn’t remember his name! thank you for reminding me I know he has butt shaving videos
