I realized at 29 and started at 31, there are trans women that started in their 60s, never too late.

Well my hormones were off before I started and I’m post op now. My T before starting was 375 and my Estrogen total was 250. Now my T is 4 and my ESTRADIOL (E2) is 40

All at once, I don’t want to stab myself, easier to put one on twice a week so I don’t forget when lazy/tired. ESTRADIOL 0.1 MG PATCH (2/WK) is what I have.

What about patches? That should spread it out.

Yes the cramps and nausea I get from stress and ulcers is bad already sometimes but that’s reducing with therapy and meds.

Yeah, I also had baby fever after getting on progesterone.

Yeah, also the issue with self lubricant is it’s constant so you will always have discharge. Not a bad thing. Im younger, 30s, but I just have a small thing of lube that I can carry if I’m going somewhere.

Though if they could just do a full swap I would take it so I wouldn’t have to remember hrt lol

I think my Cowper’s gland is really active. I have been able to have sex without lube if I have a good amount of foreplay.

No worries, I ultimately went with penile inversion but spent a year researching ppt.

Ehh, I had penile inversion and mine has never been dry. It’s only been a year but I still have discharge sometimes.

Ppt does not use the Colon or penile inversion. https://www.mozaiccare.net/peritoneal-pullthrough-vaginoplasty

Ppt does not use the Colon at all. https://www.mozaiccare.net/peritoneal-pullthrough-vaginoplasty

Wow, we are a year apart, I had mine on September 20th 2023. It’s been a great year and so glad your’s went well as well.

Yeah, we will have to wait till the hate dies down with the conservative party’s of the world.

Do you live near a base or airport? I had to disable DFS channels as it was multiple times a day that it would drop and switch.

Yeah my doctor did it once, then instructed me how to do it. I did it twice at home and sent pictures each time. He said if I still see remaining tissue that I can do it once a week. I have a 100 stick tube of them minus the 4 I used. Been putting it off using them again as I don’t want to have sex after I use them. I’ll let my bf know after tonight I’ll start again.

Cool, I had mine at the end of September and it has been getting less.

Yep, that’s for insurance and the Dr. They both require it. Also one had to have their PhD but the hospital had one on staff that validated my letters with the therapists.

You also need a primary Dr letter and two therapists letters to get bottom surgery.

IL is great and Rush is in Chicago. It’s still Midwest though.
