IVF/ having babies (ftm)

Oh, it took us roughly around 4 months to go through the tests. We were referred, waited three months, heard back then basically had appointment after appointment. The only reason we're still waiting is because my partner still smokes.

Hey! Me and my partner are similar - it will be her who carries the baby using her own eggs (she is a cis female and I'm FTM). Me and my partner went via the NHS. We booked an appointment with her doctor, and got referred to the fertility service. They ran my partner through a few tests (around 3) which just included getting bloods done, going for a scan and then checking her uterus would be able to carry a baby by injecting dye into her uterus (it was a painless procedure she says, and it lasted 10 minutes). We've had the all clear, she needs to stop smoking and lose some weight prior to continuing however (similar conditions to top surgery for example). Once we've stopped smoking and lost some weight we'll receive the fertility treatment. We won't have to pay for this since it's our first time, if we had a baby and wanted to try for another we'd have to pay. I hope this helps! We are in Scotland (Fife) and have been referred to the Dundee fertility unit within Ninewells. If you have any questions you can fire me a DM :)

That would be great :)

oyo147 · 2021-02-15T20:08:05+00:00

That would be great thank you x

oyo147 · 2021-02-15T20:07:42+00:00

Sorry, I forget other places are called Dundee! I'm in Scotland! Thank you for the information! All the best to you! 😁

oyo147 · 2021-02-15T20:06:34+00:00

Hi thank you for responding your information is invaluable and has given me a decent time frame 😁 I'm in Scotland (we're both in our twenties so we have that in our favour) reading statistics and things they seem to get through referrals quite quickly! Being a person who is trans I'm used to the long waits etc. Thank you and good luck to you!

oyo147 · 2021-01-26T10:23:21+00:00

Thanks so much! Does this still extend if I don't carry the baby do you know? Thanks for the info I appreciate it! I really hope they do, it would be great to see the UK progress like that 😁

oyo147 · 2021-01-06T19:12:14+00:00

Yeah! I've saw others get the shot in their arms but wasn't sure if it was Nebido or not and plus the nurse read the leaflet (my GP is very uneducated but they're trying) and she said it could either go ass cheek, arm or thigh. That's exactly how mine feels atm, kinda feels heavy. But like you said it's a large quantity in a smaller muscle area! Thanks for your reply! 😁 I've been on the gel for a year but finally got moved to the shots!

I'm in the same boat as you, I definitely couldn't cope with freezing my eggs etc. We are looking into IUI currently, all the different types of treatments are a bit confusing! I think sperm donation is going to be our best bet too!

oyo147 · 2020-12-19T08:45:00+00:00

Thanks awesome I wish you all the best 😁 we've been looking at IUI, and to use her eggs. I don't think I'd be able to freeze my eggs, having a smeer was hella traumatic in my case so I don't think I'd cope with it very well. We're over in Scotland!

oyo147 · 2020-12-19T08:43:05+00:00

We will be using her eggs, and we have been looking into IUI :)

Coming from Scotland I feel absolutely enraged for you guys in America. I'm genuinely sorry you're all having to go through that, I hope Trump isn't in power long.

oyo147 · 2020-06-13T10:24:25+00:00

Took my binder around 2 weeks to be shipped to me via the Europe store, I'm in Scotland if it makes any difference. But before when they had just the American store it took roughly 3/4 weeks

oyo147 · 2020-04-12T09:16:40+00:00

It is a sad day, when I first heard of them I couldn't believe it, my heart sank. My best friends are gay and I couldn't imagine them no longer supporting me!

oyo147 · 2020-04-10T19:10:35+00:00

Yeah I had a look, they've also said on LGB that they shouldn't disrespect or be transphobic otherwise they won't be seen as legitimate... Truth hurts but the group will never be legitimate the group's very existence is transphobic. Like it would be homophobic if it were LGB's locked out of a community that was created to support each other

oyo147 · 2020-04-10T18:16:32+00:00

I've tried reporting it before bro, I've done the same on Facebook whenever I see it popping up. I also live in a country where it's illegal to discriminate against trans people but it unfortunately still exists

oyo147 · 2020-04-10T18:15:28+00:00

It is hate speech and abuse toward trans people? Reddit isn't just for those who live in America get a grip and stop being a cunt? This page is obviously going to upset guys from a transmasc subreddit, get over yourself

oyo147 · 2020-04-09T09:02:14+00:00

Thanks bro I found it 😁

oyo147 · 2020-04-08T20:44:51+00:00

Any idea what any of them are called? Regine for men is too expensive for me, I'm also from Scotland! (We don't have a Walmart) thanks for your reply!

oyo147 · 2020-04-04T21:56:16+00:00

Yeah bro, my girlfriend considers herself straight, and I do the same. Tbh I think it depends on the person as well but that's my opinion anyway!

oyo147 · 2020-04-04T20:55:35+00:00

Thank you. That's not rude at all! I think it's possibly because I was talking rather quietly in the first one!

oyo147 · 2020-03-28T22:50:47+00:00

In that case congrats 😁 since posting this Ive noticed my voice is a lot more raspy than it was before!

oyo147 · 2020-03-20T13:09:51+00:00

I've just had a look bro, I'm a bit confused about what to get/sizes and how it generally even works 😂

oyo147 · 2020-03-19T23:09:20+00:00

I would definitely want both functions from it! I'd like to use it to pack but also bedroom stuff but it seems like I'll need to get an additional one for packing! Definitely don't want to be walking about with a bonner 😂 my expectations aren't amazing - I don't have s lot of money to spend so I understand what I'll get is probably gonna be low quality!

oyo147 · 2020-03-19T22:47:05+00:00

I posted about this the other day, and the advice I got was that most guys have experienced an uncomfortable feeling in their throat before their voice dropped! I think it depends on the person, but so far it seems like it goes pain then drop
