OMG!!! :)

So i just started taking estradiol valerate (estrogen) and Spironolactone (androgen blockers) about a few days ago.

I mean i can't feel anything yet, but I'm still ecstatic about taking the pills. :D

I can't wait until i start seeing some results, i know that it will take a while, and i shouldn't expect to see results in just a few days

but i'm just happy knowing that i'm battling all those evil testosterone. :D

Oh!! And my 19th b-day was horrible. It was just another year stuck in the wrong body, but i have a feeling

that my next b-day is gonna be awesome. I might be showing off a new pair of boobs!!! :P

Belle - YEAAAAAAAAAAAA

I was one month on them 10 January. You are too early, but baby - you gonna know sooooon. For me? Shows in my face, shows in my body fat distribution. I mainly feel it in my moods though. Hold on to your hat! ROLLERCOASTER - auuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugh. Boobs are later - but you should be seeing those results in a year - 2 at most.

GREAT FOR YOU

Oooops you are legal with these? I have to ask.

Congratulations!

You are really starting to move now! :)

Don't be too disappointed if the boobs aren't that big on your next birthday - puberty last five years for natal females, so a couple of years for full development would be pretty fast.

There should be enough to be sporting a nice bra - without any padding and still look good! :D

Love ya,

Sally

      I don't understand why people place any value on what actors, musicians, or sports people have to say about politics.  It isn't any more relevant than what the average person on the street has to say about it. And this article only had a couple of quotes, no video of what he actually said for context.    There's plenty to criticize about modern culture, and MeToo. (anybody remember when # was pronounced "pound" instead of "hashtag?" 🙄)  if the two or three quotes in the article are the "worst" things he said, its basically nothing.

      Thank you, Charlize. Just to be myself is often a struggle, but to be living my truth is a great reward in itself. At 76, too, I'm a happy young trans non-binary person. Cheers, Davie.

      I'm certainly feeling excitement right now from an impending move.  Excitement isn't something that I seek.  At least not consciously.  I'm looking forward to wrapping up this packing phase because I have a good computer programming project to get to.  Actually, there are a few of them stacked up.

      I'd like to see some American trans artists sue a few American haters. Trans actor Karla Sofía Gascón sues French far-right politician after ‘sexist insult’ The actor, who became the first transgender woman to win the best actress prize at Cannes, had earlier dedicated her award to ‘all the trans people who are suffering’. The first transgender woman to be awarded the best actress prize at the Cannes film festival filed a legal complaint on Wednesday over a “sexist insult” from a far-right politician after her win. Karla Sofía Gascón and co-stars jointly received the accolade on Saturday for their performances in French auteur Jacques Audiard’s Mexico-set narco musical Emilia Perez. https://www.theguardian.com/film/article/2024/may/29/trans-actor-karla-sofia-gascon-sues-french-far-right-politician-after-sexist-insult

      I'm not even sure I know what an emotion is.  I often feel intimacy.  I can feel loneliness, but I'm just way too optimistic to stay stuck in that.  I guess any negative emotion I get is just fuel to work on something.

      I listen to Outlaw Country a lot too. My favorite music genre. I went to an Outlaw Music Festival last summer featuring Willie Nelson. It was awesome. Waylon Jennings, Merle Haggard, Buck Owens, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, EmmyLou Harris, George Jones, Loretta Lynn, Hank Williams. Just to name a few of my favorites. I'm showing my age by admitting this. LOL

      Sadie Schreiner, first trans NCAA All-American in track since 2019, enjoys the past but ponders an uncertain future By Karleigh Webb  | May 27, 2024, 11:49 am PDT | https://www.outsports.com/2024/5/27/24094635/sadie-schreiner-ncaa-track-championships-trans-athlete/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR3RltY3VRTxxVwk-dopB5fnz3779d6EtaDANGqxrOzEilsWuhi0TbDMqKg_aem_ASXThc2s7EVELVZiIehdN7InvfGco3ntCjXUFdWW9kUQ_XRX_sVwVzlKxvWMl4DJO_w9W4DPPbA2AMOD0404byz1

      Sounds like just what you need in a situation like that, basic food.

      Spiro by itself may induce some feminizing effects by suppressing T and allowing natural E in your system to bind. Just make sure you drink enough water! 😀   I specifically chose not to use a T blocker, I’m already on blood pressure meds that are effective and I did not want to risk greater sexual dysfunction of my lady stick 🤭. My labs on one shot of a “introductory” dose of estradiol velerate saw my T plummet within the first three months regardless, down to cis female levels. I have more labs in a couple weeks to check on things after titration of dose and perhaps a step up in dose.    6 months flies, girls!   It sounds like you have a wonderful NP and I’m so glad you were able to start GAHT. I’d love to keep hearing about your journey.

      Flagged levels on blood tests are for levels out of range, but the ranges for males and females are different. I was flagged all the time for low T levels until I had my medical records changed to Female. For a while there were no flags, but eventually I was flagged as low T for the female range. My doctor advised that low T can cause low energy, low libido, and/or reduced cognitive function, but as I didn't exhibit low energy or altered cognitive function, we decided I could live with low libido, and as yet, I haven't added a T supplement. My doctor has decent experience with trans patients, and bases treatments as much on how I feel as the test numbers.   Hugs,   Allie

      I totally see the value in expressing your views on what you are passionate about Mmindy, but I also see that as different from surrendering to the flow of your emotions. I sometimes practise turning my tears off and on at will, since I feel the better I can control them the more confident I can be to just let them take me over sometimes. I find one exercise helpful: to think of a time when I lacked for love and to give myself the love I needed then.    I’m so glad you are becoming more able to express your emotions.

      Now that is what I call service!  Congratulations on your HRT and on having such good patient care.
    • Mmindy
      I agree with you, and I consider myself lucky to have a realistic understanding that I’m never going to have my dream body. I take comfort in the fact that women come in all shapes and sizes. I compare myself to the women in my family at the age I am now, and see that resemblance. It may be easier to transition into an Auntie or Grandmotherly figure once you reach a certain age.    Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋
