Good morning, everyone!! I'm still battling the Worst Head Cold Ever. Just when I think I've turned the corner, it smacks me back down. If you've got stock in tissues, I'm driving up your profits. Our early Spring has the grass growing quickly. I need to get out today and cut it before it grows over the house. Today is supposed to be sunny and mid-60s so I'll suck up not feeling great and get the mowers out. At least I'll be in the sunshine for a few hours. The next few days are supposed to be rainy so it's today or wait until the weekend. Time for a second cup of coffee!! Stay safe and enjoy this beautiful day we've been given!! -

Welcome Mattie. When i got here i was at a point bin my journey when i was discovering my path. Writing about it and reading about others helped me greatly as did gender therapy. Perhaps the hardest thing was finding self acceptance without feeling guilt at simply being me. Enjoy your time here. You are not alone. Hugs, Charlize -

I picked a cancellation spot with Dr Lorimer yesterday and had my consultation a month early. I had been worried about how it would go, but the process of exchanging information was nothing to worry about and I felt quite at ease throughout. That’s not to say some parts weren’t challenging to articulate clearly, but Dr Lorimer’s manner helped enormously. The GI/GD diagnosis was such a welcome conclusion to it all, and such an important milestone in my journey. Now for the Endo consult waiting… -

This one is NOT over, and this is not a final final ruling on the matter since this was a procedural and not substantive ruling based on scientific evidence. -

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/supreme-court/supreme-court-allows-enforcement-idaho-ban-gender-affirming-care-trans-rcna141209 6-3 decision, of course. The conservative Justices really don't give a damn who gets hurt, as long as it's "just" trans kids. This is what we can expect, going forward. Carolyn Marie -

I am on a three month review cycle for dosage. Do you have a plan with your doctor? I didn't discuss overall strategy when I got my prescription, it was a very long appointment. I was able to ask via web message to get a better idea; we'll check blood every 3 months and titrate accordingly. I don't know if we'll change labs to 6mo after a year or not, but that's where I'm at now. I, too, was like "is this enough?" at the start. Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't, but I've seen positive results during the months at a lower dose and continue to notice changes. For instance, my skin sensitivity is much higher. I always wondered why my wife was so ticklish, but I'm starting to understand why. I'll bet I am 20-40% more sensitive to touch than I was before; gently tickling my arm (I would wake up doing this sometimes, up and down my arms) now makes my fingers tingle...in a good way. :) -

@mattie22 Welcome to the Forums Mattie. Our basic view here is that if you have any questions about your gender then you are not Cis Gender and belong here for that reason alone, because if you are not Cis, then you are someplace in the Trans and/or Non Binary part of the world, and on this site, that is simply who is here, Trans and NB folks! Be comfortable and do not be afraid to ask questions here, or even give answers to others from your own experience. -

I am new to this site and kinda scared to even come to a site like this. 1 i donot know really if I am even trans or not I know I amqusting my gender fore sure.

But I geuse thats becuse well I am ok with seeing myself as one even thogh I I probly fitin the gendr nonconforing . but I also a part of me likes to be seen and treated Like a fmale somtimes. When I was ynger I crosdress in secret and I started up again. I also tuck . tHE THING IS i CROSS DRESS FOR MANY RRSIONS AT FIRST OUT OF CURISTY AND THEN JUST BECUSE i LIKE TO WEE TH CLOSES. aLSO SOMTIMES ITS PARTLY SEXAL AS WELL SOMTIMES BEUSE IT HELS ME TO SEE WHAT IT WOULD BE LIKE TO BE FEMALE AND i LIKE IT. somtimes I wish I were female as well that comes and goes uslly it does not last long. This has happened more recently. But it s not like i knew as much about gender untell the last cople of yerses .also turns out I am bisexal it took me while did not know this I thogh i was strait for most of my life. I. ok I better ened this post. for now. -

Thanks for the great advice and support @Astrid. I appreciate it! -

When you are sure you want to continue your HRT journey and the best dosage for you, consider asking your doctor for a three month prescription cycle (90 days rather than 30). This can result for some in considerable savings. It definitely did for me... I am at the 4 year 5 month mark for my estrogen patches and am so glad I made the decision to go forward. Best wishes! Astrid
