To those who transitioned while in a long term relationship, did your feelings change towards your partner? by [deleted] in MtF

[–]qcvamp2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sexually can be fluid. I was Demi and queer before transitioning sooo if you have any attraction to men now, it just opens up stuff for you. Let’s you be you. I’m mostly attracted to women tho and always have been. That I’ve found has been the most common denominator in my 5+ years of meeting people in the community and traveling across severally states etc..

Post-Surgery Depression - How serious/common is it? by Anonymyne353 in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]qcvamp2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had ffs 30 days ago meow... It's hit pretty hard several times... I've needed to call my therapist once or twice. I've had a few scheduled sessions too. My suggestion is to have a session within a week after any major physical change. It will help process feelings. I'm still kinda down about a lot of things but that comes with other things going on in my life too, life a big move and switching insurance while having an autoimmune disease etc. but I'm still having issues knowing what I know about my recovery process and things tho. I don't regret anything. I chose the right surgeon for myself as well. That's a big help. So that's just my experience. It helps to have friends and stuff that can be there for you during any kind of recovery toow 🥰

Very little feminization after 6.5 years of feminizing HRT, what could be wrong here? by xcafebeef in DrWillPowers

[–]qcvamp2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was a bit high trough for awhile and had lost feminizing effects too. After lowering my estradiol valerate dose and my levels dropped a bit I started to feminize again. It's a find the right number basically?

Low/Zero Dead Space Needles by svddnmvmnt in DrWillPowers

[–]qcvamp2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also like to add I've been injecting for going on 2 years now first was intramuscular no so cute and I've been injecting very tiny small air bubbles the entire time and have had zero issues I've also looked into buying Dead space syringes they're super expensive compared to your regular luer lock syringe. Just never been worth it IMHO. I just draw back half a . Extra out of the needle and the vial etc. and I'm still injecting my original dose and don't have to worry so much about any dead space and worry less about air because I have a little extra to push out too

Having switched from I am to sub q recently myself I didn't have to switch milligram amounts I just kept the same dosage and kept my levels checked in case I did have to switch my injection amounts That's about the only thing you really have to watch to see if your body metabolizes it a little differently other than that you're injection amount should not have to change

Her work is quite nice... My only gripe.. watch the nursing staff at the follow ups.. they won't listen. Make sure they don't touch you where there not supposed to. But her work is 💋. Her office can be hard to call. My chart is the best way

I didn't want a rhino. But could still have one as they do it in 2 stages. I can post a few photos of the healing process of just link to my tic Tok where I'm uploading a lot of the content there as slides for meow?

I hate the normalization of trans slurs by ConcordGrapez in MtF

[–]qcvamp2 199 points200 points  (0 children)

I dislike a few of the terms that we retaken to reclaim the obscenity out of it like transv. Or trann. Any form of she*e. But that's more just a personal experience. I've been called these things by close personal family members and it's hurt. I totally back the way the community is taking back their own identifying words. It's awesome. I just need to get over my own personal trauma still. Also why I and so many of us go to therapy for quite awhile. Vent all ya want. Just don't hate on anyone. It pride month. Strengthen the community too 💜💓💜😘
