Just got home from work and now I'm crying because I was able to sing Northern Downpour in key
I've been on testosterone for 5 years! My voice changed a long time ago!
I don't know why I'm crying over it now!!

Girl, testosterone makes your vagina desert dry when it should be ALWAYS wet and well moisturized by the right amount of hormones. There's a reason why every gynecologist says to not clean your interior, bc it will fuck up its hp. Imagine what a ride it is to have it always dry and prone to every infection. (I didn't know this until last week btw, things you learn)
The human body's response to HRT is actually admirable in the sheer indifference. Just pure I Don't Give A Shit, I Just Fucking Work Here compliance to the new instructions. You can get testosterone injected straight into your body and it doesn't even question where that shit came from, coming back from a coffee break and just going
"Okay, everything seems to be in ord- oh fuck now what? Oh huh. Alright fine. New orders came in, cancel the menstrual cycle. Dig up the genetic balding patterns from somewhere, I don't fucking know they're buried somewhere in the dna. I'm greenlighting the growing-hair-on-your-toes thing. Yeah just cancel the ongoing maintenance processes, new orders came in so this is apparently what we're doing now."

do you ever think about how the mainstream transphobic talking points about trans women are how they're imposing their gender on other people (bathroom bills, sports bans, age old jokes about them tricking men, etc) and meanwhile whenever trans men come up it's about how their gender is being imposed on them (ie. caterwauling about detransitioning and puberty blockers and 'confused tomboys'). its probably just being grandfathered in from patriarchal viewpoints of gender but it's remarkably consistent. i don't think i've ever seen anyone concerned about trans men 'invading' mens spaces except in like. niche gay sex clubs. and even then those clubs can be more trans positive than your average womens public bathroom.
#cw transphobia#idk its been on my mind#like both estrogen and testosterone have irreversable effects#but ive only ever seen cis people fearmonger about it with T. at least in UK news. with E they dont seem to care.

No one warns trans boys about anything fr. Voice dropping? Hurts like hell and you sound dorky (affectionate and passes quickly dw). Leg hair in skinny jeans makes your legs feel numb after a while. Bottom growth too big so you have to choose which side of the seam it goes on, but so small itll break rank and shoot pain so bad youll see god into your stomach everytime you step wrong (also passes and is not permanent. And funny.)
Trans men and transmascs please share the things no one warned you about transitioning is so sexy and fun

Brought to you because of my searing hatred for the DEA 💛
#trans#transgender#lgbt#lgbtq#ftm#nonbinary#trans meme#context: the DEA has reign over controlled substances which testosterone is classified as (this is unironically fucked up imo)#this applies also to any disabled and otherwise who rely on their controlled substance/s and are thus under the mercy of the DEA <3#described images#image description in alt#also the random guy in the background who's not even part of the group is iconic#i'm very sure i have made a post like this but it bears repeating lest anybody forget how much the dea SUCKS#i love that NIXON made the dea. like why are we letting HIM have any lasting effect on the american people. NIXON.#nixon and regan both are under my hate list ngl why is regan remembered fondly by anybody 😭 (rhetorical)#words cannot descrobe how much i hate the war on drugs and the lasting affect and damages it's done to my fellow americans#how the fuck did they let drugs win the war on drugs. they destroyed peoples lives and for what.#my grandma once said he (regan) was her favourite president ever and i was quite literally like 😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐

any trans person should get HRT for free (no insurance required) and in exchange they should participate in the occasional study/survey.
research into sex hormones and their effects is so scarce and you have a whole ass population group who's willing to not only switch up their hormones but keep it up for very long periods of time. you could run some incredible long term studies with participants across all sorts of demographics.
while it's impossible to conduct any blind studies on this due to observable change in appearance, there's still so so so much data we're giving up on because we'd rather...
lemme check my notes. that cant be right.
...because we'd rather deny trans people health care and let them die. huh.
#trans#transgender#ramble#queer#lgbtq#genderqueer#hrt#trans hrt#crimes against the gender convention#someone make me a scientist im onto something#like yes obviously science needs funding and shit but if we can stuff dead fish into mri machines we can give out some pills#we have a... grasp on physical changes but even that is limited#effects on behavior have like. 3 studies in 30+ years or something like that#and we cant really extrapolate from animal experiments because human brains are so much more complex#and what about variants!! id fucking love to take a fucked up lil cocktail to see which aspects of a physical transition can be isolated#like if i take testosterone i am SO gonna start balding but theres supposed combinations that would inhibit the effect on hair loss/growth#but i cant have that because theres not enough science on it to get it approved here (especially if insurance is involved)#hello i am the science lemme do it!! gimme!!!!#id even let you float me in a vat of mysterious green liquid#actually that seems like a benefit

i think we also need to address the elephant in the room that yes, there are people who seek gender affirming care who later realize they are cis- but that a vast majority of people who are detransitioning do so out of social pressure. whether its familial, spousal, work, school, sports, politics, resources, etc; any trans person you ask can probably explain to you in detail what exact precipice would make them detransition, or at least understand someone else doing so. its fucking hard and its fucking scary being trans in this country- not just recently, but continually. it really can be beaten out of you. not being trans, but any ability you have to pursue recognition for being trans. how many of that 1% of people decided they were cis, and how many of them decided they just werent strong enough to be out?
#if you want to look at fully medical technicals my husband and i are both detransitioned#weve been off of testosterone for years. to the point that there really isnt any lingering effects at all#we would be counted as detransitioned entirely bc we dont have the resources to continue our transition. and we wont for a while yet either#just a thought

So I've been on testosterone for 3+ years and, while others experiences may vary, I actually feel more in touch with my emotions than previously. I think this is a result of my mental health improving in general, as most of my depression symptoms got a lot better, especially post top surgery. (Anxiety is still here though, lol)
I admittedly don't cry as easily as I used to, yet I still feel the same happiness or sadness just as deeply. The only difference is the physical tears. And I am still fully able to cry.

PCOS Medic, I know this in my heart
#gopher rambles#tf2 medic#team fortress 2#*looks around shiftily* time to give blorbos medical conditions I suspect myself to have for shits and giggles#also because folks dont seem to talk about PCOS much on here and yet I know. like. four people who have it in meatspace. not including#myself because I never got the diagnoses (because Medical Care is Expensive) but I have a lot of the symptoms#and notably high testosterone for someone with ovaries#so. Medic can have PCOS. as a treat (?)#(I mean. I certainly enjoy some of the effects of the testosterone.....)

anytime someone talks about the "uncomfortable" parts of testosterone puberty and how its normal to be annoyed about certain things because even cis boys were bothered by the "icky stuff" im like. wait yall aren't getting massive euphoria from smelling like a locker room, forehead breakouts and having a hairy ass ?
#trip talks#'the negative side effects of testosterone HRT' do not project onto me. there have been NO negatives.#could also be that im incredibly lucky with my skin genetics#during my first puberty i rarely got acne#and yeah i get more pimples now that im on T but it's really not bad#every single change has brought me nothing but joy#not even scared of balding#ill go jackson galaxy vibes and grow a beard and get even more piercings and make it work
