Honey......

What good do you think that will do you?

The female contraceptive pill is actually very low in any hormone that would benefit an MTF...

You'd see no results......

They're by prescription anyway....how would you get them?

do not concur that no results can be had...years ago when I ran into the hurdles from the medical community, I had a G/F who gave me hers (hey, she didn't need them...she wasn't between the sheets with anyone else). Oveseas still has a number of the products that are at the same dosage level as what I had access to 20-ish years ago. There WAS an effect...not dramatic, but certainly an effect.

Ethinyl estradiol was quite the drug for some of us...

The benefit if any does not justify the risks, these pills have so little estrogen in them, sorry.

I was there once, a teenager with access to my mom's pills, just not a good idea, OK ?

Not sure how it is where you are, perhaps an age waiver can be obtained, perhaps for only androgen blockers.

I know that dissolving guar gum powder in water and drinking that along with 2000 mg of Vitamin C a day is actually quite effective as an androgyn blocker...but the negative side effects of "the pill" that have a possibility of happening are not worth the risk.

You can do quite a bit of damage to your liver with the pill and if you do enough, it may become impossible for a doctor to safely perscribe you any hormones at all so...

i vote live with the guar gum....trust me, I know what it's like to wait.

ALEX,someone apparently has evaluated you.I am assuming it is someone with a medical background.I would suggest you follow their advice.An A cup,ofcourse is small;but,it;s what I started with.Now I have a C cup,and and trying for a D.Go slow,give your body time to adjust.I won't suggest what I take.Follow your Dr's advice.I am M2F.

I would be so happy if that was the case, on hrt, but I was told becuz of my age I would have to wait 3 years :( It for me is mental torture and symbolic suicide this to me feels lyk death itself, being in the wrong body.Its easy for you to say now that you are already on hrt..... btw that is actually amazing if u achieved C cups due to hormones x

How exactly does that work, and where did you get this information? I'll be on blockers and hormones soon, but I'm just interested in the biochemistry of it.

      Nice to meet you @Mwm684 and Welcome! Congratulations on your decision to finally start living as your True Self.  It also took me (and others here too) many years to finally make that same commitment.  I am also happy you have support of your spouse and those around you.  That's very important. I am sure you will feel the positive effects of HRT once you are able to start (it can sometimes take a couple of months to really 'feel it' though).  I think you will find this Forum and Community very beneficial in your Journey.  Wishing you all the best!   Deep breaths ... One step at a time

      It's Justice served ... but unfortunately in the Politics of America nowadays justice has also become politicized.  But still Happy with the verdict.

      I am happy to finally give myself ALL of the emotional space I need ... sometimes I don't even need a reason

      California comes through again..  Proud to be a native.  But even here there is an undertone of intolerance that is both just under the surface or geographically prevalent.  We just need to stay on guard ... and stay Visible.

      Welcome @Nonexistent! Glad you're here (I'm a bit late on the welcoming committee, ladies are allowed to be fashionably late right?).   Not presenting as the gender in my head & having others validate that when they misgender me sucks. But a fact I had to face a few months ago & am working on today is I'm a transgender woman, not cis. The chances of me passing all the time every time are slim. Sometimes it happen & feels really good when it does. I appreciate those people who acknowledge my femininity whether they're just being nice, or they see the woman inside.     Everyday now & as often as needed throughout the day I say to myself, "I'm a transgender woman, I didn't make me this way, today I will love & embrace myself just as I am, I will not be ashamed." I find it helps me be comfortable with who I am, just as I am. I'm still working on me, becoming the best transgender woman I can. I'm finding it easier to let go of what others might think.    I'm not sure about Texas I haven't been there since beginning my transition, but I was living in Florida since I began just over three years ago & politically it's not much different. I've been here in RI about a month & I honestly don't see a big difference in how people see, treat, or gender me here to how they did in FL.    I hope you find the wonderful advice,support, & acceptance here as I have.   Hugs! Delcina

      Hi Lydia, My paternal grandmother was very similar. I am grateful for having had a chance to know her.   Hugs! Delcina

      I was fairly surprised that the verdict came so quickly, but I guess the evidence was much more persuasive and overwhelming than we were led to believe.  What's disheartening, but not unexpected, is how fast some "leaders" have rushed to discredit the jury and everyone involved in the process.  The jurors, who spent 5 weeks of their time sitting in that courtroom, deserved better than that.  But those "leaders" I mentioned are just following the lead of their "Fearless Leader" in discrediting everything that doesn't go their way.   Carolyn Marie

      Welcome! Glad you're here! So happy for you having your wife's support as well as her family & at work! You might look for a transgender support group or PFLAG in your area. I found them very helpful, especially as I began my social transition & going out into the world.   Hugs! Delcina

      Welcome to Tran Pulse, @Mwm684.  It would be helpful, but not required, if you could give us a name of some kind that is less awkward than what we currently have.   Glad to hear that things at home and at work are going well for you.  I hope that continues.  Please let us know how we may be of service.   HUGS   Carolyn Marie

      Happy Birthday Charlize! You know having met in person I think you may be stretching the truth a bit just to get senior discounts. I would have to say not more than a day over 29. Thank you for sharing this, our journeys intertwine in such a wonderfully delightful way.   Hugs! Delcina

      Hello, I was born male but always wished to be female every day of my life. I am currently 48 years old and have an appointment with my GP to start HRT. I came out to my wife about 3 months ago and she has taken the news rather well. I have told my wife’s sister and her family, I have told my immediate supervisor and our facility operations manager at my work. So far all is well. I wish I had the courage to come out sooner but the fear and shame was just too much. I live in southwest Michigan and would really like to make some friends for support eventually. My wife and I are doing great and have no danger in splitting up over my situation. I have been dressing at home with my wife’s help for now. This really helps but I’m looking forward to HRT for the mental benefits as well as the physical benefits down the road.

      This hand written stuff is just a few years old, but those math animation graphics are decades old.  Those Flash Math Creativity days.  Lots of good memories from that.  I never read that book, but you know, I was fully in that thing.   I called the collision detection I was coding 4 dimensional math.  My roommate a few weeks ago was describing the fourth dimension as a cube within a cube, connected at the corners and folding in on itself.  I always considered the fourth dimension to be time.  I'm not sure I ever coded a 3 dimensional collision detection, but I realized that you would just do it with the perpendicular plane and then take the closest hit.  My mind certainly isn't in all the details of it right now.  I'm simply enjoying showing some of my work and perhaps it will spark someone else's interest.  I guess my art work doesn't fall into a clean boundary of illustration.  There is a thing about adopting a theme though.  You've got to work with something in an OOP world.

      That’s so wonderful! I’m glad to hear that mono-therapy worked for you! But Thank you, I’m def trusting the process and seeing where it leads. 😊     That’s really kind of you to say all of that. It makes me feel better that the plan I’m sticking with is unique to me as every plan each and every one of us is on is unique. And yes, I absolutely echo your sentiments about communicating clearly and openly with my provider if something doesn’t feel right or not working. Very good advice! 😊   I told my provider at the appointment that my plan was to do mono-therapy once my levels were good. She said when that time comes it will definitely be considered, but for now it’s getting my levels where they need to be is her main concern.
