Blood tests can only test so much. Many times the answers lie in the chromasomes and genetic variations-and that testing is unfortunately very expensive. What does your Dr say and recommend?

If you have mixed development there is an amazing variety of ways it can be expressed. I always knew I had something going on-to the extent that before I discovered the truths my daughter suggested for years maybe I was a chimera with mixed male and female DNA. She was right about the male and female but wrong about the reason. I am a DES baby and I found scars eventually that indicate I was born dual sexed and had surgery as an infant. That actually was harder for me to accept for awhile than being trans. There is no one left to ask though my Dr agreed that was likely the case when I discussed the scars. In time I have come to see that it is really not important to me anymore. What matters is that I know what gender I am and have addressed that whatever the cause. But that is me and each of us has to work through these questions and feelings in our own way.

Whatever you decide I would recommend talking to your Dr more. Maybe even asking about genetic testing.

I agree with Johnny,

In the end as long as you know in your spirit who you are the parts don't matter as much. While the dysphoria is there, at least you know in your heart what is right and can start taking steps needed to correct the condition as needed if that is what you desire. :: hugs :: hope it all goes well.

I hope as a group we can convince you that you are not a freak. Others on here have felt that way, but were able to gain better insight into themselves. As others have pointed out, breast growth can occur for other reasons. It was a surprise for me when my tests came back with a 'T' level that was in the 'normal male' range for my age group. It did not change how I felt about myself, nor the experiences I had.

Huggs,

Opal

Kaine, While on the persuit of finding out your chromsomal and genetic make up, which sex do you prefer being; Male or female?

Just being yourself is actually the most important thing. If you prefer and have been presenting as a male than there is no reason to change unless you feel you nust chane. And if, you have been presenting as a female then there is no reason to change up. You will alwys be you, no matter what the body parts and or chromosomes.

My brother Johnny, has some good thoughts on the subject, And from the time Johnny ventured from his death bed and into the world, he has made miraculous progress in taking on the outer trapings of a man. But, inwardly he has always been a man, so he just needed the outside to match the inside.

I would say that if you really need to talk to someone in depth- Johnny would be your best bet. He's come a million miles in a short period of time.

Thou Shalt Not SHOULD On Thyself!! Knock off the "I should" garbage and you will feel tons better!!! I should be rich and have three Lamborghinis and a chauffeur that out hunks all other hunks around!! I should also look like some knock out chick movie star, but I look more like a Yeti.

You DO have the characteristics you have, and they are yours and need to be in good health to keep you on your way. You are just a YOU and we are happy to have YOU here with us. Overthinking our UNIQUE characteristics <not freak like> is going to confuse us. Look at Camels or Tapir's or for heavens sake a Giraffe over in the zoo, and tell one of them they're a freak, but be ready to run. Take a breath and decide what you are going to do with the life and features you have, and if they work fine with each other, YOU are a YOU.

      It's kinda weird how these people are so worked up over making these laws.  They would have no effect on cis people either way.  Yet they are the ones with the obsession.  They ought to just stay out of trans people's business.

      Bean burritos are still popular in my family.   Black eyed peas are the one legume I'm not fond of.  I need to add lots of onions. And of course always cook your pintoes with fat-meat.  And for y'all yankees, navy beans with a big ol' ham bone are hard to beat.

      Seek out community, not just online but in person if possible. Making trans friends is a pretty quick and easy way to gauge if you have much in common with them.

      Glad to be home and did go out for a walk this morning.Good thing is that went good.Still taking it easy

      It certainly could be classed as dark humor.  Unfortunately the sentiments alone must hurt young trans folks.  Decency and reality doesn't seem to be in the GOP's vocabulary.   Hugs,   Charlize

      Good morning all,    It’s a frosty morning here the lawn looks silvery, and the uncovered spring flowers have icy edges on their leaves. The only flower bed I covered was my tulips. As nice as it is here during the day, our clear wind free nights allow the temperatures to drop into the mid twenties. Here in our growing zone it’s recommended that you not plant delicate plants until Mother’s Day. Central Indiana can have snow as late as the third week of May. The birds are active at the feeders, I’ve had my cup of yoghurt and morning meds. So I’ll sit here, drink coffee and watch the as the sunrise chases the frost from the yard.    @awkward-yet-sweet I could eat black eyed peas as a side for every meal. Boil them plain or with fatback. Served as a leftover, just add in a little Rotel Original Diced Tomatoes & Green Chilies.  Make the best of your day,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Had a weird dream last night.
    • Mirrabooka
      Morning, y'all. Evening here; we had the regulation three mugs full today. Now it's time to drink something else.     No big plans here either, eldest daughter and granddaughter will be arriving on Saturday, and we will have our granddaughter to ourselves for a week after that. We still have plans though. Tuesday we'll go to the swim center, Wednesday we'll take a road trip to visit my mom, Thursday we'll get some mulch delivered to top up the gardens.   I still make other small plans on a daily basis though. The things I do plan nowadays, which is a bit new for me, is that after pinching a nerve and ending up in a bit of pain and getting some treatment from the physio, I am more motivated than ever to exercise more regularly. Tuesday for example, I went for a short (15 minute) early morning walk, went to the pool for some hydrotherapy, and mowed the lawns. Yesterday I did my exercise reps and spent some time on the exercise bike. Today, I went for a 45-minute walk, tomorrow I will do my reps again and go for a long bike ride. As long as I do at least one thing every day, right? The pleasing thing is that I'm losing weight! I blew out to above 95kg early in the year and I'm just under 91kg now. Yay me!

      What one piece of advice would you give to beginning transitioners or considering transition?

      Positive side of the mixed bag.

      Boredom is an emotional state that comes when a person has nothing to do, and is not interested in anything. To stop boredom, most people do something to occupy or amuse themselves. The first known use of the word boredom is in the novel Bleak House by Charles Dickens, written in 1852, but the saying to be a bore had been used to mean "to be tiresome or dull" since 1768. When referring to the mind, boredom is a bad state in which the person feels a deep lack of interest in what is going on around them, and where it is hard to focus.
