My Successful Surgery

I finally had "the operation"! All woman now - thank goodness. While my mind has been there for some time my body needed the completion. Oh yes - this is an ad area - almost forget. Ok lovelies check these folks out - www.globalhcf.com. They had my life changed and I didn't go into bankruptcy to do it. Sound, wonderful, non-judgemental folks. They looked after me like I was a - well royalty! GlobalHCF got me taken care of for exactly 73% less than my doctor in Chicago wanted.

Wish I did this 12 years ago! Bye!

Yea!!! A quick question was your surgery in the states or else where? I'm working to get my ffs done and wondering if they would be as good as the doctor i've consulted with at Boston Med.

I've only just joined but I'd like to say this - Congrats! You stuck to your guns and achieved what I'm guessing was a long held dream: If only I could be in a similar position to yourself...

P.S How does it actually "feel", having gone the whole nine yards?

I think when Emily St. J said goodbye, she meant goodbye.

According to the forum statistics she joined on July 14, posted the above post and has not been seen since.

I can only presume that she is off somewhere leading her new life.

I wish her well.

I can only presume it was a spam account made to advertise that website/company.

Congratulations! :)

I still am 16, so I can't take hormones nor have surgery yet. :( Best of luck in life!

That is not tue. People as young as 14 are starting HRT. If you have parental approval and a good endocrinologist it is possible. Or maybe have a local endo consult with Dr Spack in Boston:

He's bringing the Dutch system of helping young kids while they are still teens, and even pre-teens sometimes, to the USA.

Wow, how long has he been around for?

I live less than an hour away from Boston and have never heard about him from any of my therapists. Of course I'm 18 now, so it doesn't matter to me anymore, does it? :rolleyes:

I think Dr Spack has been active for 2-3 years getting the program up and running. It's now just that with the ful backing of the hospital.

I'm also less than an hour from Boston. B)

It was clearly spam, I just visited it, its a medicare site, so obviously a con person trying to drum up business. I mean its a no brainer adding a link using web link or for a web site <a href="full web link">type anything here you like</a>

I am happy you got your surgery, and are happy with your new life.

The 2001 rule was Hormone blockers at age 10 and hormones with parental permission at age 16 which in my opinion was a tad late. Things have changed tremendously in the last 2 years. According to my email therapists on my list have been telling me hormones are now being prescribed at age 13 with parental permission. Treatment for Transgender children and early diagnosis has exploded since 2006. This is indeed good news. If you have a doctor who still follows the old rules have them write to me. Exceptions can be made and have been all along.

      Our government is huge and could, and probably should, be streamlined. But we are living in 2024, and not the late 18th century.  The founders did provide for updating the Sacred Constitution.  And it has been done on occasion.   There is a lot going on, and I don't want to be a single issue voter.  But I feel that it is being forced on me as a matter of my survival.

      How about if we get back on topic?

      Many women my age wear their hair super-short, and I don't really have a need to have it long.  Longer in places where I can't grow it, if it is long  No aspirations to be a supermodel here.  The mustache would have to go before the wig comes if I ever did that.  I am threading a narrow path.

      Not all evangelicals condemn people for being trans.  Some evangelicals are even trans.   He can pray for you all he wants, that is fine.  I will personally take all the prayer I can get.   It sounds like he has been reading or listening to John McArthur or the SBC.  Not much you can do. Pray for him.

      It'll come in waves with hormones. I have noticed that when I apply a fresh patch and the next day comes I feel euphoric and towards the end I feel really bad and dysphoria kicks in. I still feel body dysmorphia of what I have and can't wait till SRS

      One month here. Huh.

      "entries from “citizens who have changed their gender” will not be considered"   Considering that trans people don't "change their gender" but rather may or may not transition to some extent to affirm their gender, this rule seems superfluous.

      They make supplements for hair growth I have been using one for four months and it is now at 6" long when I had nothing before. Although I take more than the pills. I take growth spray, oil, and a supplement that is added to a drink. My hair is very healthy. Unfortunately it's very curly so it'll take longer to grow

      That's a toughy to say. But I do know that it's an area for improvement with me. I can get pretty down on myself sometimes. I guess I have to remember that I'm human just like everyone else, not perfect. And that's okay.   Lots of love, Timber Wolf 🐾🪻

      Good morning    On this date in 1972 it was a Saturday. I  made a pledge to love and honor my wife and keep her forsaking all others.  I have kept those vows and here we are celebrating our 52nd anniversary still together.  Still caring for each other through sickness and in health.  Still sharing our lives.   Other than that, it’s another day near the beach.  80 and mostly sunny.     I found a ‘17 GMC Acadia yesterday I want to take a look at.  It’s a bit more than I wanted to spend but it’s doable. Only 69k miles on it, with the low mileage I put on cars these days it probably won’t ever hit 100k if I do beget it.  Low mileage now is  likely because it was a leased car at some point. Those usually get pretty good care and not a lot of miles.  It would be similar in size to my Ford, 7 passenger seating but a more basic trim which is fine.  It only has a 4 cyl engine so potentially rather under powered for a relatively large SUV.  The ford has a 4.0liter 6 which is a bit large for cars these days.  Instead of full time all wheel drive, it apparently has 4 modes, 2, 4, sport (what ever that is, I presume it’s over drive turned off) and anti slip.  It’s probably not going to happen but I am keeping my eyes open for a good deal. The old Ford is just that, an old worn out Ford.  Since I bought the Ford I’ve only put about 10k miles on it in 6 years.  My daughter once had an Acadia, top trim package.  When she was driving back and forth to work close to 100 miles per day and going to Philadelphia every week another 500 or more.  For her the miles added up fast.   still keeping my eyes open.  This is about the right age and size but I was hoping to spend about $2000 less.   Other than that I hope to meet with my minister today about paper topics for my class submission.   Other than that Monday is laundry day so I’ll be doing several loads of laundry today.     I put on a neutral gel nail polish last night.  I tried this before, however, I don’t believe I correctly understood the how to get a good result so I was more careful this time.  All I want it’s to give my bpfinger nails enough strength to grow out just a little and stop tearing.   Well, I need to call to make an urology appointment.   @Birdiei was born in Ohio and until Lamda Legal sued them you could not get a sex change on a birth certificate for any reason.  Now you can.  In South Carolina a name change requires $300 and a form filled out and filed with the clerk of courts.  But a gender change requires a birth certificate with the new gender listed.  I am hoping they will permit gender X eventually but right now the state is too Red to do any such thing.   Willow

      I have the problem, that I see myself at 3 maybe 4 on the list. I don't have the self love that I should have.   What does it mean to you?   Kymmie

      Seems the stuffy day-centre has swapped out Psychiatric Services and therapy to the local BSA hospital. BSA works closely with the local university and is much more gender accepting than the day-centre. The day-centre's psychiatrist wanted to treat me for gender dysphoria by correcting it. 🙄   I logged into MyChart app at the hospital and updated my preferred name (Birdie) and preferred gender marker for them to use.  I'll try and get a referral for gender therapy at the hospital as well.    Nevada is my place of birth and I found out changing the gender marker on my birth certificate there only requires a letter from a licensed therapist, but a name change still requires a court order.    Changing the gender marker to female would at least be one step in the right direction, then I could renew my ID to state female instead.
