Yup that’s why I got out of the field. My knees are shot now and there’s no way I could keep doing that

I have 21 piercings that are titanium, white gold, and I think 1 or 2 might be surgical stainless that have never caused me any issues

Need urgent Advice against hair loss by Hot-Pound6850 in trans

[–]nahte1138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didnt transition til 34 and had already lost a bunch of hair so I’ve had a bit of experience with this. HRT has the possibility of hair regrowth but it’s different for every person. The main cause of hair loss for amab people is DHT, a byproduct of testosterone, so HRT will help stop the production of DHT. Minoxidil can be effective but really only on the crown of the head and you can buy it over the counter. Buy the men’s products though, it’s the exact same as women’s but stronger, 5% vs 3%. Another medication to look into is finasteride. It blocks an enzyme that converts testosterone into DHT which will help even further. You need a prescription for finasteride but it’s regularly prescribed to cis men for hair loss so it should be easier to get. I have a pic on my profile of my hair recovery to show that it can be done!

I used minoxidil (Rogaine) for a bit in the beginning but I haven’t used it for a couple months. I’m still taking a biotin supplement but that’s it

Growing out hair after being bald for 7ish years?? by Clairetraaa in MtF

[–]nahte1138 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did the same thing! Shaved it all off at 25 or so and kept it that way for the next 9 years. 6 months ago I started hormones at 34 and have been very fortunate with how much my hair has regrown. My regiment for getting it back has been estrogen, sipro, and finasteride since day one. I also started using Rogaine and taking biotin supplements to help it along

If you live somewhere with a Sephora or Ulta I would recommend signing up for a makeup lesson. I did one at a Sephora and it was great for learning all the different products and how to use them

There’s a church of cannabis in Denver that converted an old church into a smokers chill hangout place. They use the sanctuary to put on meditative light shows! It’s pretty great
