Recommended Posts

I am and have been doing hormone replacement under doctor care for 5 yrs I was told the at some point I will see my testies will shrink I am hoping that it will shrink so small that you can not see it. I only have one my whole life so I hope it does shrink.  Has anyone have any imput in this area. My skin is softer may hair has slowed down growing in some places I have nice  small breast that I am happy with and Now starting to find its hard to get boys jeans over my hips But still no butt lol

I fear your "boys" will atrophy but not get so small as to not be seen.  It may be time to start looking at women's jeans.  You will like them!

Hello Connie:

 

I can say that they will shrink but not disappear like my friends said previously.  I can say from my experience that I only have 1 as well and it was from Cancer that I lost one.  But mine did shrink yet they are still there.  Yet it did get small and with only one, makes it very easy to tuck and I can wear a girls swimsuit and not have to worry.  Hope this helps out.

Second hand and Thrift shops (independent and Goodwill) are great places to shop.  No pressure and typically enough selection to satisfy your needs and wants! 

 

Have fun.

Just look in the women's racks for jeans.  Most of them have some amount to stretch.   I'm glad you found something you liked!

 Hey Connie, 

 There is one favorite brand of jeans that I buy on eBay all the time now when I can find them. The Rider by Lee Jeans seem to work very well for me, but there is one specific version of those jeans that I like the most, they have thinner fabric at stretches just a little and is more forgiving in the hips. You can notice this particular one by the double sewn pocket flaps in the front and the button closed pockets in the back.  I often find this on eBay in the $20-$30 range, maybe you’ll like them too? 

 Hugs,

Jackie

I love Riders!!! :)

 

When I converted by men's jean size, I found that I'm in between 12 and 14. I went with 14 and have been happy with them.

I'm a Levi 515 girl :) I've been wearing them for 10 years and with a few minor exceptions I don't own any men jeans.

 

As for shrinking, I was castrated/scrotum removed and it is SO cool. I never get tired of that feeling, jeans fit, underwear now fits. 

 

If you are a 30-32 size 6 or size 8 (They are very close) will work. 32 would equate to size 8.

      In my case, at almost 9 months, most changes have been very subtle. I was 60 when I started, and overweight. Also, I am not very observant when it comes to changes. In the last 3 months I have been on T blockers and breast growth have definitely started having suffered irregular "ouchies", but at the same time I have been slowly losing fat, so Bust measurements have not changed. What has changed in the density, I can feel a difference. Face wise the skin feels softer, and my lashes seem to be more visible. Head hair regrowth is a maybe- maybe not situation.  I do have to select men's clothing carefully to camouflage the change in breast shape. I guess I'm still at the not passable as a female stage especially with no makeup. I'm also over 6 foot and well over 100kgs which I guess is problematic to start with!   Hope this helps somewhat   Kate .

      I started feminizing HRT about 6-7 weeks ago. I began with what I called the beginner's patch. I immediately found myself wanting to level up to the next dose and did that this week (yay!). So far, I am enjoying the ride.   I've read everything I can find on this topic. For the HRT vets on here, what is reasonable to expect in terms of physical changes for someone starting in their 50s? I know "your mileage may vary." I guess I am curious if I stay on my current trajectory for six months, a year, multiple years, how pronounced will the physical changes be? Will I reach a point where it is totally obvious or will I land in a "middle zone" somewhere in which I could pass either way?   Thanks! Like I said I am enjoying the ride so far and always curious to know others' experiences. Not sure anyone else in my life will be excited about these moves I am making, but I have been over that in many places on here already so need to rehash... Love and blessings to all!   Easy

      Being admitted into the hospital after a long ER visit. I started passing lots of blood and they are keeping me for observation.    Nurse came in to see about a condom catheter, that of course doesn't work on me. 🤣   She said, "I guess we will use incontinence supplies on you."

      Yeah.  I think this is what it is about.  Since they are not transgender, nobody else could possibly be either.  I'm not sure that a cisgender person can understand being transgender.  But that hardly means that a transgender person's experience is not real - just because it is not theirs. Why is a transgendered person's experience not valid, while a cisgendered person's is?  Why should it be the cisgendered person that decides? Nobody is forcing a cis person to transition.  What I do for myself is my own business.

      I've been thinking it is a matter of belief.  They simply do not believe someone can validly be transgender and should not be allowed to practice their beliefs, but should be forced to practice their belief, that is, that there is no such thing as transgender and it is all mental illness/sin/hormonal imbalance.

      I am really kind of sick of everybody who is not transgender deciding on what we need and do not need in the way of procedures. They act like all of this is play acting, and we can just apply cosmetics to our entire body. It might be refreshing if someone asked us directly what services we need in order to transition. I could say more as I am frustrated, but I do not want to violate the TOS.

      I discovered her "Whipping Girl" when my egg first cracked.  It helped me understand some things.
