I am wondering if I am intersexed?

IIRC It started around the time I started self medicating estrogen (Which was stupid of me. DON"T DO IT) It has been like I have been having the monthly visitor. It happens once a month or every Three weeks. I get a bright red bloody discharge from my rear. longest has been maybe 2 days. I have had colonoscopies, prostate exams, and PSA Blood tests. I have had abdominal X-rays for various other things. MRI, Cat scans, even a lower GI. the whole nine yards. Nothing out of the ordinary has ever been reported.

 

My thoughts and only my thoughts have been that I have some female parts interwoven inside. reason that I never experienced them until now is the testosterone has over rode the female parts. When I started the self medication, the extra E in my system caused the female parts to start up somewhat. With no where else to exit my body it comes out my rear. With taking the puberty blockers it blocked both the E and the T.

 

I need to talk to my Dr. about it. With nothing bad showing up in my colonoscopies I haven't been worried about it. Just curious.

That DOES happen. My therapist was telling me about a friend of hers: They discovered a uterus and ovaries when they went in for her GCS and just hooked everything together. She had her first period at 40. The nurse kept asking her, "Are your periods always this bad?" She said, "I don't KNOW!"

 

The rectum would be an unusual place for it to exit though. The prostate is the uterine remnant from a fully masculinized fetus. Definitely talk to your doctor.

 

Hugs!

I doubt if the bleeding was anything related to ovulation. Chances are, the bleeding was from a polyp that burst and by the time you got scoped it healed.

 

Estrogen is not going to create a uterus, Fallopian tubes, and ovaries etc.. 

 

There are people known as chimera. There's a women who has different DNA in different parts of her body. 

 

Lydia Fairchild (born 1976) is an American woman who exhibits chimerism, having two distinct populations of DNA among the cells of her body. She was pregnant with her third child when she and the father of her children, Jamie Townsend, separated.  

 

When DNA and amino acids are involved strange and wondrous things can happen. The chances of you having chimerism are quite rare but it is a possibility. It's fascinating stuff and some people have postulated that some trans folks may be chimeras.

    Many transgender and gay people are dual sex chimeras So what’s a chimera? It’s the opposite of twins in one way. It’s also when you are your own twin.

      Don't think Americans would go for the "compulsory" part. We kind of like not being told what to do ... Amazingly, there is great pushback on voter ID laws. The opponents say it discourages voting, especially among the poor and minorities. That is really a smokescreen IMO for those who want to harvest ballots from as many places as possible, including folks who don't exist or don't hold citizenship...

      Pretty soon I think I might be ready to talk about gender-affirming care for kids, possibly w/r/t the Cass Review and its shortcomings.

      She was a beautiful young woman ...   "What we do know is that the offender was a very violent individual and should not have been on our streets.”  Whether gender related or not, the mental health and incarceration issues in our country are incredibly bad and need to be addressed.

      April,   I'm glad my entries are interesting to you.  TransCentralPA is a great organization with so many caring people.  I would strongly recommend you find a way to attend the Keystone Conference.  I guarantee you'll find it an amazing experience.     Hugs,   Sally

      Dear @Sally Stone.  I think you should author a memoir based on these posts (maybe you're already working towards that?).  You could decide at a later time if/when you might want to publish.   I appreciate you sharing your deep connection with your friend Willa (and I am sorry for your loss) and the benefit of having a Trans friend and mentor in our Life and Journey.  I was fortunate to have found one also in our TGP friend @Kasumi63.   As you know we share many common Life themes in our stories.  Drop me a PM if you'd like to chat about it.  Looking forward to the next 'chapter'.

      Voting is compulsory here, for better or worse. Would doing the same in the US snap people out of their apathy?

      I am noting you use CRT terminology.  The comment is not out of the blue.  Some of your remarks on religion suggest atheism.  So it is believable that you are a Marxist, knowingly or not.  Are you?

      Congrats to your family on the new addition!

      Funny you think that I would be able to get through more than two sentences with how bad my stutter gets (joking, of course)   My topic would probably be mythology, random Japan factoids in my mind, or a favorite story   (Best option would be a fave story of mine including a lot of factoids on Japanese myths-)

      Congratulations @ivy. Nothing beats a family growing two feet at a time!

      I read each of your entries and learn so much. Thank you, especially, for the TransCentralPA info. I have been looking fora group and activities where I could express myself safely and with support. I missed this year's conference but next year might be possible and I am going to look at their other events, too.

      I have read numerous accounts of trans folk no longer being welcome among evangelicals.   I am here for help and fellowship not to rebuke anyone.  I can take a pretty high degree of insult, etc., and you haven't insulted me, to my recollection anyway :) and I usually let it go.  But I thought I would let it all out there.   I am sure I disagree with you on numerous issues.  I appreciate other people's viewpoints, including those who radically disagree with me.  Intellectual challenge is good. One thing I appreciate about @MaeBe.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      Congrats!
