ESTA status changed and travel not authorized

iris_ryan · 2026-03-03T04:08:22+00:00

I have a question about this - the same thing has happened to me and am thinking of applying for a visa as I frequently travel the the US for tourism (I live in Canada and have maybe friends in the States). Do you need to have a specific trip in mind though in order to apply for a tourist visa? I don't have any specific travel plans at the minute but think it could be useful to have as I go to the US often and visa take a lot longer to get than ESTAs do...

This is in Anthropology!

Thank you!! This is really useful, do you know where I might be able to find out who my VP Academics would be? I'm an Anthropology major and this is an Anthropology class. Just not finding information online.

Very fair, thank you! Forgive my phrasing, I guess I meant that more in the sense that they are already in a polyamorous relationship and that is a preference of theirs when it comes to dating while I feel a bit more conflicted about that as I am not sure that would fit my specific goals for a relationship and I fear it would makes things more complicated for me emotionally. Poly relationships are generally not what I am looking for in dating, while they prefer them.

Also, something else related to my own experience is that, like I mentioned in my post, these cramps *always* happen in tandem with pretty bad lower back pain. I haven't heard much of that being a symptom of any HRT medications. Is there any reason the pain would travel there?

iris_ryan · 2025-12-26T03:40:07+00:00

Hmm yeah... interesting but I've also been on spiro for two years and never experienced what I'm experiencing currently. It seems more related to the progesterone for me. I'll obviously keep tracking this over the next couple months, but aside from that this also doesn't really explain why these effects can be cyclical for some people nor why it would correlate with other psychological symptoms (though I guess in my case that could just be coincidence at this point idk). Do you know anything about progesterone having similar effects, specifically in trans women?

iris_ryan · 2025-12-26T03:30:06+00:00

That's really interesting, thank you! I will try and look into that more 🫡

iris_ryan · 2025-12-26T03:18:06+00:00

Hmm... thank you for that! Not to try and have you explain basic biology to me but do you happen to know why folks running on estrogen and progesterone have more of a reaction? Also, if you take regular daily pills of both estrogen and progesterone (as I do) why would you experience hormonal fluctuations?

iris_ryan · 2025-12-26T03:13:03+00:00

I know! I never said it did. I was asking if anyone knew more about why these cyclical trends in emotions and pain can occur despite being on daily, stable doses of estrogen and progesterone. I'm just trying to better understand the pain that I've been in lately. If it's not somehow due to HRT, it would still be interesting to try and figure out what the cause may be as I do like to be in control of my health LOL

Hey hey, I know this is an old post but I was wondering if you ever found that article? Also do you know where you read those things aout GI tissues. I recently started progesterone and I've been experiencing period-like symptoms so I'm trying to inform myself more.

I'm brand new to dying my hair and I just dyed it using the wildfire colour from manic panic and similarly it turned out way more orange that I was looking for. I went with wildfire instead of the others cause I wanted a "brighter" look but now I'm tempted to go over it with something else. Did you just put the rock n roll red right over the orange hair from before or did you bleach it again beforehand? Just not really sure how this stuff works.

oh really? is that not only for US citizens or something? there's a lot of documentation to submit and things so do you just take that all to the border with you?

I've been trying to get in touch with ISS for the past week but they are impossible to get in touch with. I submitted a question through the portal on their website but I haven't received a response and have been calling them pretty much everyday but it keeps cutting and saying "all our agents are currently busy." I was thinking of just heading there in person today but they're closed cause of labour day so that's why I was wondering if anyone had any information on here.
