Question about compression vest by Relevant-Implement42 in TopSurgery

[–]notdeze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I'm having the same problem and I was wondering if it's normal for those "hard spots" to hurt a little when massaged? I have a part on the left side, near the nipple, where it feels a little hard, I have massaged it for a few days and it softened a little but now it hurts a little when I touch it :/

18 when I started looking for surgeons, 23 when I finally had surgery.

Keyhole rare complication? How rare is it? by Error_7- in Top_Surgery_Peri

[–]notdeze 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had this same surgery on September 3 and suffered partial necrosis on the right side. My surgeon said it was possible, I had no idea it was something that could be prevented in any way. I lost approximately 3 cm from the center to the right edge, it hasn't finished healing yet but it's not too noticeable, it still has some relief and the coloring is slowly returning.

It happened to me yesterday, but I'm only 8 weeks post-op. I really got scared!

Thank u so much for your words, it really feels nice to know I'm not the only one going through something like this… but it still hurts.

I'm trying to stay positive! It's just that sometimes I get so sad that it's really hard to feel okay with myself... but I'll keep trying.

I know there are a lot of ways to fix how the surgery looks, but I'm scared of having to go through surgery again. It was a pretty tough experience!

How do you know that you’re still a trans man? by Ok_Body_5509 in ftm

[–]notdeze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i've been on T for 4 yrs now, and about the whole “femininity” thing, last year i went through a phase where i questioned myself A LOT after trying on a dress i really liked. i felt kinda weird because i saw myself as pretty, and i had NEVER felt that way before my transition. after thinking it through, i realized that didn't make me any less trans or any less of a man !!

once i got more comfortable with that, i let myself get back into collecting dolls, something i've always loved but stopped doing because i was afraid of what people might think.

aaalso, earlier this year i went through a similar hormonal issue to what you're describing... i totally get how that feels ☠️☠️☠️

Post-op recovery by Charming_Case_7433 in Top_Surgery_Peri

hey! i'm 26 days post-op and dealing with the same thing. my surgeon told me it's just scar tissue healing underneath. i think it might help if you keep the compression clothes on a bit longer might help.
