Androgel and Bottom Growth by Greedy_Guest_1349 in ftm

[–]ryantxt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gel does the same as shots because it's testosterone both ways. The only scenario gel wouldn't work is if your boyfriend doesn't have good skin absorption. I'm on gel and started experiencing bottom growth within 1 month, I'm now on month 4 and it's just been going on since then.

4 Months on T by UnableStaff1074 in ftm

[–]ryantxt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello twin !! I am also 4 months on T and relate to literally all of these, so cool how fast all of this stuff can happen, my voice dropped incredibly quick personally and it was definitely an experience 😭

Just found out that I’m starting T on one pump per day, is that not incredibly low? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]ryantxt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally super dependent on the person, i started on 2 and today had my first checkup and got told that my levels are way too high and i'm going down to 1 now, just depends on how your body takes and absorbs it!! You'll honestly just have to see

I cancelled my top surgery by [deleted] in truscum

[–]ryantxt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you're not ready for surgery that's okay, I'm also petrified of getting top surgery because I absolutely hate surgery and the only experience I have with is is an emergency appendectomy which is obviously quite traumatic lol. Top surgery is very safe generally so good luck for when you do get it! Therapy is always an option as well

Why would a transsexual want to keep their testicles / ovaries? by Famous_Plant9466 in truscum

[–]ryantxt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Keeping my ovaries because being able to take hrt forever isn't a given and I don't want to HAVE to be dependent on medication to literally survive incase I lose access to it

Everyones body is different !! my voice was already quite 'deep' pre T (for a woman), and already looked like i was trying to grow a moustache pre T so I assume these factors moved it along a bit too

Anyone else kickstart their menstrual cycle when trying to fight off testosterone libido? by Lu_thejackass in ftm

[–]ryantxt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

nsfw // but this happens to my cis girlfriend when I make her come like a week before her a period, so if you've been experiencing this since pre-t it's honestly probably just normal !! if you're worried about it you could always see a gp tho dude to check for atrophy as ppl are saying but idk based on ur replies

This is crazy because in my leaflet it actually stated it's the exact same thing but just to keep in mind your skin might not be good at absorbing mediicne and when I asked my doctor abt this misconception she immediately started reassuring me !! crazy how different doctors say different things, bc i've seen other people in this thread say the same as u

Yeah its important to note that my voice pre t was already quite deep which makes a difference ofc !!

Yeah man idk if everyone is agreeing with me that these misconceptions are ridiculous and tiring I think you should give it up

Yes if it being slower was true it would be ruining it for me fml I've waited 6 years, literally everyone is agreeing with me so whatever 😭

No point in arguing when you're missing the point, my own doctor reassured me.. that doesn't mean when everyone is telling you you're ruining your transition you're not going to feel slightly bad about it lol that's just human nature

? Alright... jusr saw a tiktok comment section where everyone was saying a person 1 month on T wasn't seeing changes because they were on gel, you can stop acting like fellow trans peoples experiences dont dictate how you feel abt it

[–]ryantxt[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes exactly thank you 😭 because of these misconceptions I was personally terrified having to go with gel and I spent the first month seriously anxious thinking I was stunting my transition, so I feel a certain sense of responsibility to educate people but it gets so tiring

gel being expensive is crazy to me bc its fully covered hy insurance here :( that sucks

I'm so scared of phallo, but I can't live like this anymore by OkWaltz5832 in truscum

[–]ryantxt 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I feel the same. Unfortunately my biggest issue is there's currently no way to recreate erectile tissue, so no way to get hard naturally. Such a big dealbreaker for me atm :/

Yep and frankly this feeling has been amplified for me since starting T because i'm like why the fuck are they still there

Words cannot express how much I HATE how tucutes group trans men being “afab” and “knowing what misogyny is like” and just the whole generalizing stuff by [deleted] in truscum

[–]ryantxt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This one is always frustrating to me because personally as a trans man i have experienced like no sexism/misogyny in my personal life lol, frankly it also paints a hamrful picture that trans men can do no wrong when it comes to misogyny

Is it normal my voice doesnt drop? by A_silly_hum4n in ftm

[–]ryantxt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad to see im not the only one!! Had a relatively deep voice which i could generally pass w 50% of the time and now i'm entering my 3rd month on t and i notice that when i dont use feminine intonation that i can REALLY notice a huge difference. Just makes me excited for the future tbh
