So, I've been taking testosterone for almost 4 months now. I've been mostly pretty happy on it- my energy levels have been pretty good, I've been getting out of the house more. My therapist has said I've made a huge improvement over the last 2 years since I started seeing him. My voice has lowered super-duper quick (from an alto almost to a ( Read more... )

Well, this is my first post so please bear with me. I'm unsure of if I want to medically transition, either going on T or actually getting surgery done. (It's possible I'll do T in the future but with my life situation, it's hard to say.)

So now it's summer and that means swimming and shirtless yard work and as it turns out..whole new body issues ( Read more... )

I keep finding my binder rather uncomfortable, and I want to get a couple of sports bras to give myself an easier option sometimes. The trouble is, I think my chest size has changed since I last bought one, so I'm going to need to measure myself again. I know what I need to measure, I'm just having enough dysphoria that I keep shying away from ( Read more... )

Hey, I discovered this group a week or so ago and now feel like the most naïve/ignorant moron in the world. The extent of my knowledge of transgenderism was a particularly cringeworthy story-arc on Hollyoaks (English teen-based soap).
