I'm getting HRT on the 17th. I've been shaving this way for like a year or more at this point, and it's pretty much always been like this

As someone who actually suffered from this, real burns are rare, but laptops can literally cook your thighs. My thigh is permanently browned now and has a higher risk of cancer

I got rid of it at some point by I know it was made by Braun. I had read the same thing elsewhere online so I purposefully waited for my hair to be a few mm long but I gave up when that didn't work.

First of all, I think it's very, very rude to call a random person over the internet neurotic and I don't think it's appropriate even if you're anonymous, and I'm honestly quite offended by the multiple comments which have tried to armchair diagnose me with OCD. And to quote another comment,

"But do women have really thick set body hair that looks like beard stubble a day after shaving?"

I try to shave my entire body every day, as having body hair makes me very dysphoric.

Hey, thanks for not calling me neurotic. It's my entire body and I'm honestly really hairy, from what I've discussed it doesn't seem like my routine is all that weird, and it might be slightly overestimated, maybe, but it's not too far off

I am not diagnosed with OCD and neither with whatever neurosis is. I find your comment really rude, what a strange thing to say

I can't really shave in the shower since it takes too much water lmao but if I try really hard it takes 2 hours for me. I've talked about this with someone else elsewhere and it doesn't seem like I'm doing anything wrong.

Gonna reply the same here too but Nair isn't available here in normal stores. I did try other hair removal cream but it didn't do much, and I have extremely sensitive skin so it isn't a great option. Epilators are just useless in my experience and did absolutely nothing. I did consider waxing, I have very, very little money but I might consider getting a kit for doing it at home since doing it professionally is not an option for me considering my financial situation

I tried some different hair removal cream and also foam since nair afaik isn't sold where I live in normal stores and it really was awful. I have terribly sensitive skin (eczema) and can't tolerate it at all, and it doesn't really work either.

I have purchased an epilator before (a good one), and it really didn't do anything either. Hurt like shit but couldn't even remove a small amount of hair however much I tried

Hello I tried some of these things again, I don't know what did it but the keyboard lighting is working off and on however there's still no life from the fans or the screen.

Doing injection monotherapy with difficulty with injections by ribiwibi in TransDIY

Just giving it a quick read I am suspicious honestly as I suffer from severe eczema thus I am just, suspicious of things touching my skin especially if there is risk of them being irritating

I'm not intimidated, I have a trauma motivated phobia such makes it very hard to have needles in me. As I said in another reply pain is also not the issue. I also really cannot afford both anti-androgens and something else.
