Male to Female (MtF) Transsexual Discussion

Well I just found out that my brother is getting a divorce.After 24 years he says that they have just grown apart.I dont know I have never been married but I always thought that when u get married u have found they person that u want to share the rest of your life with.About 6 years ago my other brother got a divorce from his wife but with them they fought all the time and they had a daughter so then I felt that fighting around there daughter was not a healthy environment so a divorce was really for the best.What really gets to me is they dont see my side Im not in a relationship so I dont have that other person to lean on or just to grow old with.I dont think they see ho…

Today i got my first 2 scripts from the doctor for spiro and avodart. I believe that they are both once a day for now. The doctor told me to think about how i want to take the hormones. 1. Build up the estrogen 2. Build up the spiro. or 3. slowly build them both up together. I decided that i wanted to start off with the spiro and get rid of my testosterone first. I have looked on many sites and havent found any answers for sure, but i was wondering if from anyone of you gals who have taken spiro, what exactly in terms of bodily change can you expect? The doc said that i will notice changes in my hair after a while, but i was also wondering what other changes will come…

Yesterday started off terribly. I cut the back of my hair to keep it looking like a bob and my wife got furious. She said all the same hurtful things she normally does and we fought about getting divorced. Then, the conversation actually got beneficial. She told me how she was actually feeling. She told me about how scared she is of losing me. She told me that she hates me as a woman because she sees me as killing her husband whom she loves so dearly. Finally, we came to a compromise. As long as I hold off on hormones and GRS (so that she can still have sex with her husband), she's going to respect who I am. We've planned a date for shopping and dinner this…

Thanks for Annie's link.. http://www.transkids.us/gid.html I realise that i am a homosexual transsexual. Thats why gender identity is linked with my sexual orientation. SOOOOOOOOOOOO true.

Late notice, but in case you like this one. Im in Eastern time zone.

Yesterday was truly a first for me. I had opened my paper One Hanes Place catalog and spotted the camisole style shapewear and I just had to have one right then. As I tore out the order form I noticed "check out our outlet stores." Since there's a Tanger Outlet Center just down the road, I did just that. Yay, there's a Bali outlet!! I also needed a haircut and wanted acrylic nails, so I decided to take the car for an oil change at the Sears auto center at another mall between home and the outlet store and get some breakfast, a wash and whacks and a manicure while I was there. I've resumed wearing my gel-enhanced bras so I decided to wear a polo for a change. It s…

As a TG MtF it is such a glorious feeling after 60 years, to feel my breasts as my arms brush by. With the help of a little modern chemistry they have now grown quite significantly. They may only be the size of a French model, but to look down at my t-shirt and see the curvatures, the pointed shape and the nipples outline without the need of my trusty pushup bra that has supported me all these years. It chokes me up, and brings me to tears, from sheer joy and fulfillment. I know some of you must have experienced the same or similar in your TG journey, and thank-you all for your support too. Love to all G

A good friend shared this Wiki link How to me today on Faceless Book ..... https://m.wikihow.com/Transition-from-Male-to-Female-(Transgender)

Is there any information on how common the various conditions in transgender are in the populaton. I would be most interested in U.S. population and location, I see there is map on this site but I am wondering if there is any recent scientific study with some current data. I would hope that the info would include the homosexual population as well. I am also curious about those who who never come out. Obviously there is some guessing involved but has there been any type of study or survey recently that might be useful.

This post contains excerpts from the transgender forum on this message board. How to tell your friends, family and co-workers about your intention to begin transition can be a frightening experience. Please use this thread to post your quesitons or tips. We'll start with some of mine. Note for readers: I do not recommend that anyone risk losing their family unless they are firmly dedicated to pursuing gender reassignment or their desires are so strong as to make occasional crossdressing in secrecy an impossibility. We can't control exactly how others will react, so think long and hard whether you really need to tell others in your life. I believe the most important…

So I am about to get medi-cal and I was wondering if anyone knows of a doctor that will take medi-cal insurance. Current looking for laser,trach, and srs for medi-cal to cover but I need to find the Doctors first for the surgeries. thanks for you help in advanced

Well, well, how things have changed for me. Where do I start ? As you know a few weeks ago I was extremely depressed and had thoughts of suicide,due to the fact that my wife was thinking of divorcing me and threatening to take my children away from me. I have now decided to divorce her and will be serving papers on ASAP. I will looking at a new house about 30 miles away from my current location to start my new life there. I've also been informed by a friend who is a Solicitor, that when she divorces me, it's not going to go to well for her as she is an extreme right wing Christian and that it is discrimination on medical grounds against me because I have been diagnose…

here goes just a very short description , well was diagnosed transexual 2 and a half years ago by gender therapist and done nothing about it since due to not wanting to upset my family , what should i do ?

Hello, my name is Rachel. I am 35 and I identify as a transgendered person. I am pre-operative, pre-hormone, pre- pretty much everything basically. But I am in therapy or counselling and have been for about 2-3 years now and have made some strides in coming to terms with who I am and how I wish to live. I am still fairly new to this situation and not sure about many things but I do know that I wish to express my honest feminine leanings and self. I posted a few photos so be kind and don't judge too harshly. I am a very sensitive, shy person and this whole coming out thing has not been entirely easy on me emotionally. I have lost a few close friends since coming out…

I'm in late phase 3.

I have been so very interested in reading posts by some of you who have made the shift years in the past, to see how you deal with passing or not passing. What I see in your comments is that the issue seems to be more of a concern near the beginning, but as you fit more firmly in the female role and as you become more comfortable with yourself, it begins to lessen... and eventually as you act confidently in your female role you stop caring (to some degree) about whether you are read. I admit right now that I have some concerns about the passing, and one thing that always bothered me was the thought of NOT passing well... and was it worth transitioning if I could not be…

Today was the happiest day of my life. I went to the mailbox and a letter from the Clinic was there. The first thing I thought was of great another bill. I opened it and saw that I had approved for SRS. I cried all day. I made copies and have original framed onthe wall. The world has now opened up. I still can't believe it. For something that has occupied my entire life to be confirmed is awesome. I just hope I am not too old for the surgery. Yes Jolene, there is a Santa Clause !

Today marks my 23rd month of being out full time. Almost 2 years of finally being comfortable with my own body (well, except for one part, which I hope to replace with a feminine part next year). It's been an amazing journey. Not only do I feel like I am finally living my life as I should have been from day one, I've had a lot of fun the last 2 years as well. I've done some things that most 51 year old tgirls haven't done, heck, I've probably done some things that most 51 year old GG's haven't done. In 2009, I was on stage dancing at a straight strip club beside 21 year old GG's, and I was having a blast. The girls there had no idea I was a transsexual until m…

On 7/26/10 I changed my name and since then I have been in a bit of a tizzy , I want to move forward now . I have since become more confident and have come out to nearly everyone I know and with great surprise I have had no negative responses ! I have spoken with my therapist and have finally set a date to begin my RLE . On September 18th I will cast off this lie that has been Tim for so many years and begin my life as the woman I am , I am very excited and can't wait for the 18Th to get here . I have donated the last of my male clothes ( save for work shirts ) to Goodwill . I have let everyone know the date my life begins , I Still have some Doctors to notify and the…
