i really want to get on t and i was wondering if you could have a tattoo around where you inject yourself? like i want to get a trans symbol or something surrounding where i’ll take the shot with empty skin where the injection should go if that makes sense?

do you know if you could have a tattoo like this on t? thank you so much, sorry if this is weird to ask!!

i'm very glad you asked me this question! the tattoo itself is a beautiful idea, however- you are not supposed to inject in the same spot every time you inject, in fact, this is very unhealthy for you! it builds scar tissue and can lead to tissue necrosis, which can make you very sick, and potential deadening of nerve endings (neuropathy).

when you inject, you want to switch to a slightly different spot every single time so you're not causing routine damage and stress to the muscle and fat in that area. if you inject in the same spot each week, you end up with a lot of scar tissue, and the testosterone won't be able to absorb as well anymore, so switch it up and find new spots every time! they don't have to be vastly different, as long as you're not hitting the exact same spot every week, you reduce your risk of scar tissue, necrosis or neuropathy.

thank you for asking me this- i think you should still get the tattoo! but get it somewhere you want it, somewhere important to you ^ _ ^ thanks for reaching out, hope you stay safe and have a wonderful day! good luck on your journey!!!

Pro-tip:

Don't uh. Don't eat candy as a bed time snack before getting your blood drawn in the morning, even if you do it more than 12 hours prior.

It'll still make your triglycerides look insane lmao.

Fear Unlocked!

So male pattern baldness runs in my family and I'm noticing a lot of hair shedding rn. Like I ran my hand through my hair until loose strands weren't coming out anymore and this is what I got (if hair clumps gross you out don't look):

So yeah. I'm not sure if this is normal and I'm just anxious or if this is something to worry about. I have my 3 month appointment coming up next week so I guess I'll ask then.

I remember my mum was friends with a "gender counselor". And that said gender counselor talked me out of being nonbinary and into being a trans man. I assumed that since they were a professional they had to be right. So I started wearing my binder more often. Almost every day in fact. Sometimes for more than 8 hours because I felt so dysphoric (don't do this. I ended up with chronic costochondritis). I dressed masc. I got an endocrinologist so I could start T. I tried changing my voice through vocal training videos. I got a top surgery referral. I was doing everything I thought was right.

I was miserable.

It took years to undo the brainwashing she put me through. Making me something I was not. Making me second-guess everything about my identity. It was horrific. She would constantly use he/him pronouns for me. She would constantly refer to me as a man. And she would correct others if they used they/them pronouns for me.

After she was arrested I spent some time really thinking. Why was I so dysphoric all the time? I stared unraveling the rope she used to tie me up. And I found that she was wrong about me. I wasn't a trans man at all. I was nonbinary! The identity I started with. I started using they them pronouns again. I let people know that I wanted to be referred to with gender-neutral terms.

I feel so much more confident in myself.

So I guess the moral of the story is don't let anyone tell you who you are. You know yourself best. Your identity is your journey. Don't let others move you in directions you feel uncomfortable with. You'll be alright. You've got this.

20 y/o AFAB Needing Gyno in Ontario

Begging anyone if they know of any lists or resources for gynos with trans/transandrogynous experience in Ontario (literally ANYWHERE in Ontario though the GTA, Windsor, and the in-between is my stomping grounds)

I've checked that Rainbow Health website (unhelpful as fuck), Reddit (not super helpful), and now I'm out of ideas. I have to go because of some extreme hormone imbalances and I was really trying to just deal with it because of my dysphoria but I can't anymore but I won't be able to get help if they trigger my dysphoria by doing any of this ->

refering to me as feminine

Using gendered language

Talking to me about literally anything relating to my reproductive organs on a level/with language that isn't 100% scientific

Using language that forces me to claim my AFAB characteristics

I'm not looking to transition, I just need HRT to level out my hormones cause I can't survive like this anymore. Does anyone know a gyno who they think could help me or a place where I might be able to find one?

Oh I just love edging a cute boy toy until his brain breaks.

To just slide the head of my cock over his wet little cunt, gliding through his folds, teasing his needy clit. Rub right over his drippy entrance, dipping in every now and then but only slightly. Just to make him gasp and whine in frustration, desperation in his voice as he begs me so sweetly over and over again to just please fuck him already, please fuck me, Sir ~

To have him at the point where he's soaked, open and ready for me to just slide inside him in one go, to bottom out without resistance. And all he can do is thank me between the broken moans that are leaving his mouth as his poor pussy finally clenches around my hardness.

Will you cum if I move, baby? Hold back for me, alright? Try to be good for me.

Comic about trans men in the health care system I made for magazine Ottar last autumn! Please note that it presents a Swedish perspective unless stated otherwise, as it is mostly based on Swedish studies. I would however argue that it has implications on the state of healthcare for trans people in other places as well. Thank you so much Hedvig for translating this!

My late-made voice comparison. I say late-made because I had planned on tracking my voice progress on T when I started, but then I just....didn't lol.
