Male to Female (MtF) Transsexual Discussion

Hi girls! I'm a 15 year old transgender from the United States, and I have some questions about the dangers of estrogen. I've been taking spiro for about 8-9 months on and off (I turned 15 a couple of months ago). Like, I'll stop for a week or two because I run out and order more. I'm going to start estrogen in about a week. I don't know how to get medical help. Would a doctor just help me for free? And is 1mg safe?

Hi, I would love to transition MtF but cannot do so at least for now. But to prep my body for full HRT I am considering taking an anti-androgen to reduce my testosterone to female levels. I would greatly appreciate hearing from girls that are on anti-androgens only and what effects they experienced. Thanks for helping, Loe'

I was just curious, I was just prescribed a low dose of antiandrogen, and I was just curious what to expect from it and any changes that I can expect from it.

With the pain and depression and stress that comes from knowing you are in the wrong body, and therefore must have felt depression at some time, has any Dr. given you antidepressants hoping that will make things *ok* for you? I would suspect that some would, and I was wondering if you thought this actually made it 'worse' rather than better. Because I know first hand that SSRI's can make you feel apathetic, and unmotivated. Modern medicine sometimes like to 'suppress' pain rather than deal with it head on.

Greetings from a transgender sister temporarily trapped in Florida the land of ever-increasing Fascism. I will shoot straight as an arrow. I'm on disability because of autism and the occasional seizures that I have are due to autism as well. At this time, here in Florida legislation has been passed such that even though I've 2+ years on HRT it's going to impede my ability to continue to get hormones once I run out of my refills. I'm looking to move to northern California and am hoping to make some contacts and/or learn about some of the support groups and do my best to find a temporary room or other setup to rent. My options on such short notice are very limite…

I know its a pain in the A$$ but im going to college and well..college girls are kinda poor lol. I know Andrea James is against it but has anyone had success in self electrolysis. I can make time for it if I know i wont be spending thousands on it

The reason I ask is after many years one might have physical problems related to scar tissue with the functioning of surgically related the surgery. I'm particularly interested in urinary problems. I'm also interested in knowing if anyone has had issues with silicone injections, and if problems occurred over a very long period of time. I can also answer questions about sexual function and longevity. I have lived most of my life as someone considered cis gender. That is, I have very few persons who know about my transitioning and therefore, I'm in the dark about many thing perhaps are common knowledge today. If you have recommendations of good physicians who a…

HI, im 18 at about 210LBS and am told to lose weight, ive already loss a lot,(pathetic) and was woundering the right to start. OH im 5'9" tall Thanks in advance :)

I read in a post that Annie wrote that a majority of TS are non-op. It may have said pre-op, but I was wondering if the majority are pre-op or non-op? When I first visited here, i assumed that most were post-op, but learned this was not true. I'm not sure that there are any post-op regular posters here, am i wrong? If you are a TS and will want to be with a straight male as partner, you would then *need* to go for SRS. Would that be a common reason for SRS, or are there deeper reasons that are different for some even though all should have been *born* female. I'm still learning! -Kim PS) I have to go for a magnification mammogram tomorrow, Dr said it's to err o…

heres a generic quiz I made to see if you are or will become a transsexual for those who are still questioning themselves. criticism is welcome. take the quiz and please dont take the quiz too seriously, i made it in an hour and im no professional or anything

Is there any way to increase aromatase enzymes? Aromatase enzymes convert testosterone into estradiol in the body.

Has anyone tried any of the at home hair removal systems? I'm doing research on three, the No-No, Tria and Silk'n SensEpil. Each works differently and all three are FDA approved. So far I've found mixed reviews on each, but the Silk'n SensEpil seems to have the best reviews. Before I go out and drop several hundred dollars, I'd like to know if anyone here has tried any of these at home systems?

Ok, now I am posting this ponderance for consideration..... There are so many unanswered questions that rattle around in our heads how do we know that there are any true answers , well I think that for every person the answers are different, For me the question I most often ask is when will this end ... Does it ever end and the answer I have continually come across is No , we will always be striving for the ellusive acceptance for who we are ....Not every peron in this world will accept us for who we are , they may humor us and let us carry out our lives as we see we need to , but they wont completely accept us as our genetic counter parts , is this a bad thing.... No …

Having begun my transition nearly eleven years ago I've had to deal with coming out to a lot of people--and I've gotten relatively comfortable with doing so. One person I never got the chance to come out to, however, is my best guy friend from childhood, whom I will call Dan. Dan and I pretty much hung around together all the time from when I was about 7 until we lost contact with each other when I was 18 (which was 28 years ago). I have been trying to locate Dan for many years, but since he has a very common name I was always unsuccessful in my search, that is, until now. Yesterday I managed to track down--and talk with--an old mutual friend of ours and I got Dan's phone…

I need to get the facts about the pros and cons of each, and would like some opinions as well. I can’t decide which would be the best for not only GCS, but FFS as well. I’ve heard that Thailand is one of the best places in the world for trans procedures. But I don’t know if the US would be a better option as we have some amazing surgeons here too. So I need to know what everyone here says. And like I said, I’m wanting both facts and opinions.

I am a man in the thirties and I have been with women all my life and I love that. But lately I have been thinking and fantasizing about having sex with a man. Anal, BJ. The whole thing. I want to be the receiver and the one who gives the BJ. In other words I would like to be the woman and dress up like one with the clothes and the make-up and everything. One year ago, I started wearing woman's jeans, because they look so sexy on the girls. And now I just love it, I can not get them tight enough. Especially the skinny jeans. I only wear them at home though, don't dear to wear them in public. Every day I rush home to change into the jeans. Kind of a fetish to …

Hello everyone, It has been a while since I have posted. So I have some good and bad news. But overall things are going well. Better than expected. First and foremost, please allow me to extend my thanks to each and every one of you who post on this site. While I may not have posted much, I have checked in, researched some topics and read a lot of great info and advice. So thanks to all of you. REALLY ! THANKS! The second thing I did after joining this site was to become an active member of the the local support group, and they are great. If you are ever in Tulsa, look up the Gender Outreach Group hosted at the Dennis R. Neill Equality Center http://www.okeq.org/…

I dunno if a topic like this exists already, but go ahead and post your before and after pictures. (If you feel comfortable doing so...)

I was wondering if any of you guys and galls have any pictures that show your progress in transitioning. I figure this topic can give tentative transitioners some hope in seeing where others have come from and where they have arrived. Thanks :)

One of the first questions I faced when talking to people about being transgender and married to a woman was that they asked how that could be possible because they thought I would be gay. Around here we all know that gender identity and orientation are separate matters though they are also often related. I thought hard about the female mind and looked deeper into what types of attraction I had for both sexes. I supressed my femininity so much that I didn't face the reality of what kind of attraction I had for men. All I can say is that to me I like both men and women, but it is so difficult for me to understand this myself because what I hear on the news an…

As a Pre-op female, I was just wondering if being a female is more disired by more people. I know we are all female in early stages of life. Could this be the reason that their are more Mtf then Ftm (With apoligize to ftm). The percentage of mtf is much higher. Also males tend to crossdress and women crossdressers are much lower. Just intrested in hearing opinions? Where the majority of people born, meant to be female?

Well time for me to once again go back into hiding. I hate that everyone is so afraid of people that are different. I got called out today in front of everyone about my chest that because of my natural hormones and an over active pituitary gland is getting larger. I really like that it is. But also for the fact that I was bent over pulling a part and I guess my pants had sagged down some and my underwear was showing some. Well this tech yelled really loud so everyone could hear just to make me feel like crap. So I guess it's back to being uncomfortable me at work. The person who I have always had to be. I just want to disappear now. Like my disphoria isn't enough of a pro…

I started HRT on November 10, 2017 and now that my health insurance deny me again and stats breasts augmentation surgery is not cover in my insurance. I have United Health Care Community Plan it’s NYS Medicaid. The surgeon I pick exams me on March 8, 2018 in his notes say I achieved size A cup. I can’t believe the doctor mess my chance to get breast augmentation/ reconstruction surgery. I ask the surgeon office if they do work with transgender female and going by their word. I still wear no bra. Everyone I interact with is really delaying me to achieve my goal. I feel so hopeless and being deny is just making me depressed more. I turn 40 on November 26 2018. My…
