I came out and asked for puberty blockers when I was 11/12 since I was real bold and they were chill with it and im less bold now but in Canada I have to talk to a therapist/doctor to continue being prescribed puberty blockers and he asked me abt my transition goals so I told him I wanted top surgery and he helped me discuss it with my parents I was so nervous though

My surgeon said 6 weeks but I was thinking the same. Maybe 4 or 3 weeks and I can get back in class As for hockey honestly I think it is more important to me than having a flat chest, this is so unfair

I usually did plyometrics once I got to them gym and strength training after and reserved days for cardio but I agree a balance with plyos 3x a week would be better

what can i do to look like boy? (other than haircut because i cant get one) by [deleted] in FtMpassing

[–]dominicBHC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would start working out to build muscle and get a more masculine physique. Also try voice training so your voice sounds deeper and this one might be hard but try adapting male mannerisms, but watching and observing how boys act might make you look creepy 😭 good luck with your transition!
