hypospadias


dav

Recommended Posts

i think i have hypospadias i haven't gotten any confirmation as i was young when i went to the hospital but i will explain as i am curious about the condition and what other people think some say it is a intersex condition. when i was younger urinating standing up would hurt and i couldn't do it i remember telling my mum i remember a few visits to the hospital one i will never forget they put me under and when i awoke i looked down at my penis and it was all dark and charred looking i remember screaming in horror i dont remember much after but when i ask my mum about she just tells me i got circumcised  and i am circumcised  at the time writing this i also remember my testis would go missing at times and i could push them up into my groin obviously cant do this now.

now onto the discussion of me now sometimes having a erection hurts well most of the time it hurts and i find the tip of my penis gets discomfort easily i dont wear underwear because i find to irritating i was thinking is this because of the surgery or circumcised  i had on my penis when i was younger. about 2 years ago i started getting pain around my abdomen and i admit i have started feeling weird and different about my sexuality since this started i haven't explained this all in depth as much as i could but if u have hypospadias does this sound familiar to you feel free to ask me questions also urinating takes a long time for me as i am waiting for it to dribble out if i dont wait and let it finish i feel like i need to go to the toilet again. i am 26 years old as of this moment when i went to the hospital about my penis i was 4-7 i dont remember the age accurately

Hi Dav and welcome to Laura's.  I cannot answer your medical questions but i would certainly recommend you see your doctor sooner rather than later.  Difficulty urinating can be caused by any number of things, some of which might need immediate care.  Please do take care of yourself.  A doctor would be the best one to answer your questions and could possibly make things considerably easier, safer and healthier.

 

Hugs,

Hi Dav and welcome to Laura's.  Charlize gave you some great advice.  Make that appointment and see that doctor as soon as you can.  They will be able to help sort things out for you and work with you to figure out what's going on.

Hi Dav,

Yeah, that sounds familiar.  I was circumcised as a baby, and don't remember it, but even that didn't eliminate the evidence of being born intersex.  I always had difficulty with my aim peeing while standing since my urine exit is not at the end, but rather out from the under side, near the end so that it travels at an angle of about 45 degrees or so.  I also have lots of extra skin, and a broad dark line on the underside of the phallus all the way to the scrotum.  The dark line narrows over the scrotum, becoming a raised line along the perineum.  My smallish testes did go up inside when I was young.  It never hurt to pee though.  I don't need to aim anymore since I always sit down nowadays, so no problem.  I live as a woman, and once I have GCS my atypical anatomy will be no more.  I agree with the others, go see a doctor and get checked out.  That way you'll know a lot more about yourself.  My diagnosis was hypospadias with eunuchoid body habitus.  They haven't found the underlying cause yet in my case.

hugs,

Stephanie

if i did have hypospadia then when i went to the hospital when i was younger they whould have moved the urethra as it is at the tip now and what i read is they use the circumcise skin to form the new urethra

when i asked my mum she says i was circumcised because my foreskin was to tight when i remember when it happened my penis looked like it had been burnt as it was all black and chard looking so i dont know maybe it was just a circumcised.

what u explained Stephanie viking girl in your post was identical to me

Hi Stephanie, I found you reply very interesting and informative. I do have a question though, what is eunuchoid habitus

Hi Mike,

Eunochoid habitus occurs when there aren't enough hormones to go through puberty properly.  My arms and legs are unusually long compared to my torso.  My shoulders and hips are both kinda broad for my slender build.  Many with eunochoid body habitus are soft and heavy, but some like myself are slender.  I also have long fingers and toes compared to most.  I had very little body hair or odor, and my facial hair was sparse enough to pluck out without needing electrolysis.  My testes never added much T apparently, and so I don't even require Spiro.  Since starting E my hair has improved enormously, it always suffered from lack of hormones.  I am very fortunate not to have too many problems associated with my condition, thermo regulation (body heat) is one problem I have always had, and it made me susceptible to hypothermia (my core body temperature drops too easily).  I am also happy that my intersex condition made my face look kinda more youthful/feminine than most (big problem growing up though).

hugs,

Stephanie

      Good evening to you as well @Mmindy   That is awesome that you have support from her side. My dad has communicated with me once and that was because he was forced to. His new wife wanted to spend time with my kids. He hated me so much he was in the process of taking my rights away as a parent to my two boys. He was talking to a lawyer and I called him out on it. I don't love him at all. I'll respect him because I wouldn't be here without him but I wished I had another father. My uncles don't talk to me and unfriended me on Facebook. Almost all cousins except for two are still Facebook friends but they don't give me any support. My mom said she won't support me with that but she has said that she loves me. I have nieces and nephews that are still Facebook friends but they have yet to talk to me. I have one sister that supports me out of three. The other's disrespect me by deadnaming me. They have never called me their sister. I think for them they think it's still a phase. They don't ask questions about me being trans. I have to bring it up and on the look of their faces they don't look comfortable about it.

      Good evening @Ashley0616,   I just got offline with HP tech support trying to get my printer tool box icon locked to my tool bar. This is one of the most important features of my printer that I like because it keeps track of ink, paper, and scanned documents. I'm diffidently not a computer geek.   I'll catch up with the other bookmarks next week. We leave to go home for the Easter Holiday with our families. Saturday with her side, and Sunday with my side. What's odd about that is I'm out to more of her side and they're reluctantly supportive. My side on the other hand are less supportive, and my sister just under me in age will not acknowledge my being there. She will be constantly moving to keep from dealing with me. I'm dead to her.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I used to follow baseball and the team I would cheer for is Boston Red Sox. My favorite player was Papi. He was an awesome guy and even held a child during the National Anthem. I haven't watched baseball for a long time. It just died off to me. 
    • Ashley0616
      That stinks that nothing transferred, and no bookmarks were saved!

      I'm doing patches for now but I think soon I'll go to shots because it's hard to alternate when you are doing two xx patches at once. Unless she gives me Estradiol and progesterone

      Go Cleveland Guardians!  I love baseball and I loved playing it when I was younger.

      My view is we are "dependent" on government, because as a society, we are too lazy to stay actively involved. So, we let politicians do our bidding for us.  I think we'd be in a better place government wise if we policed the actions of our politicians.  We elected them; they work for us.  Sadly, we are allowing them to run amok.  We are where we are because we have chosen to let politicians make all decisions without us.  Remember "by the people, for the people?" That was the intent of our democracy.  Today, however, it is "by the politicians, for the politicians," the people be damned.

      "Play Ball! Batter Up!" is the closing line of the National Anthem as far as I'm concerned. It's the call of the Home Plate Umpire and signals the start of the game. I grew up in the TV and Radio broadcast of the St. Louis Cardinals. Harry Caray, Jack Buck, Tim McCarver, and Mike Shannon, were the voices on my transistor radio. KMOX 1120 AM pushing 50,000 watts of Class A clear-channel non-directional signal. It could be picked up all across MO, IL, IN to the East. KS, OK, CO to the West. IA, MN to the North, and KY, TN, AR to the South. There has always been a rivalry against the Chicago Cubs, in the National League. As for the American League, I have to pull for the Kansas City Royals. I've also been a Little League Umpire, and fan of everything the Little League stands for. Going to Williamsport, PA and seeing the Little League World Series is in my top 10 things to do on my bucket list.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Good evening everyone,   I don't think my mother ever cooked a meal that I didn't like. We also had a kitchen where mom fixed the food, dad filled your plate, and you eat it. It wasn't until our baby brother was born that we could have Pop-Tarts for snacks. Before that all snacks had to meet mom's approval, and in her opinion wouldn't prevent you from eating supper.   Well my day started off on a good note, but has become frustrating because my IT person didn't transfer my saved videos I use for teaching. Then I found out that they didn't save any of my book marks for websites I use frequently.   Best wishes, stay motivated,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      The number is relative to method of deliver, the time of the dose, and when the blood is drawn. However, I do want to keep away from DVT and other potential issues. I assume I may be getting backed down from my current dose, but my doc told me to stick with the higher dose, so? I also wonder if this has anything to do the my breast growth and mental changes that have been happening over the past few years, like I have some estrogen sensitivity so a little goes a long way or something? I don't have enough data to postulate, but who knows!   With weekly, subcutaneous, shots you expect to see big swings of serum level estradiol from shot to peak to trough. My doctor is interested in mid-week testing (for E and T levels only), which would be post-peak blood serum levels but they will be higher than trough. Most, if not all, resources I've seen online is to measure at trough (which I might do just to do it next time) along with a SHBG, LH, and other metrics.   This is from transfemscience.org for Estradiol valerate in oil, which is very spiky compared to some other estradiol combinations. It's also for intramuscular, which will have a slower uptake and is usually dosed in higher volume due to the slower absorption rate from muscles. They don't have subcutaneous numbers, which I would expect to see similar spikes but higher levels at similar doses due to the relatively higher absorption rate direct from fat.   Are you doing pills, shots, or patches? And when you do get your levels checked are you getting that done when your levels are lowest or some other time?

      Both of my parents were from the “North Shore” of Boston.  My mother Lynn and my father Swampscot.  They had an early 1900s Scots-Irish New England diet.  My sister and I were born in the 40s in Ohio well away from New England seafood and in an area where food was more German and Polish.  My first experience with liver and onions was during basic training.  They ate salt cod but never forced us to eat it same with oysters.  My dad ate oysters but my mother wouldn’t.  Anyone who ever ate an oyster can figure that one out.  I grew up eating lamb.  My wife won’t touch it. I love brazed ox tail, again no way. And the list goes on.

      My mother was German, so yes, I think it was a cultural thing.  If I'd known you when we were cleaning out my mother's place, I could have sent you her "threat jar".

      Wow that is a high number for Estradiol good grief! Testosterone levels are better than mine. I don't remember my Estradiol level but testosterone was 80. To me that is really high but it was in the two hundreds the check in before last one.

      I don't understand why this would make a difference being a "dad" I mean, as far as how they would grow.
