No Pressure No Diamonds

As far as I know, for the clinic I’m going to, there is no evidence of them testing hormone levels, but they keep saying in big red letters “you HAVE to stop x weeks before OR ELSE THE DEVIL IS GONNA POSSESS YOU!!”… 🙃

are you going to Thailand?

Yep…

stopping HRT if it’s transdermal or injections is a terrible idea for so many reasons.

I consider it a form of torture haha (yeah, not very haha actually)…

Maybe the “gaijin” factor helped…

I see, that’s great! I’m going to get SRS soon-ish, and the clinic requires that I stop HRT. 😒

Wow, that really sucks. :(
I was able to get a referral letter in Tokyo for SRS after only a few appointments, but the surgery is abroad so that might explain why it was somewhat easy: still had to tell my little life story to the psychologist, but he was never expressing doubt like in your case…

Ajisai my beloved 😊

So, if I understand correctly, there is a whole “approval” process when you get SRS done in Japan…?

Hey, I remember your username! 🙂 Did you surgeon make you stop HRT for a while before surgery? I hate that this is a thing with some surgeons.

Thank you for volunteering!!
I’ve never gone to any pride events, and I might not go this year (in july where I live), but one day, when I feel good about myself (fuck dysphoria), I will take part. 😋

I don’t have any advice sorry, but I’m so afraid to go to a salon to get my eyebrows shaped because I’m scared a “feminine” shape would make my brow ridge more noticeable 😭

Haven’t watched the episode yet, but… wow

Oh… that’s a shame.

Did this little girl actually have any plot relevance and/or explanation about her?

Yep, that’s a certified cutie right here.

I loooove that this usage is spreading lol.

That’s still cool. 😋

That’s cool!

Hehe too bad. 😄 BTW is your profile picture… female Tintin??

Oral I agree kinda sucks anyway. I actually meant overdosing rather than getting the dose wrong. I feel you see many more people messing up their dosage with injections (“oops I misread and injected ten times the volume”) than with gel (you don’t read “oops I applied ten times more doses on my thighs” very often). But in general, I think injections are definitely the way to go for someone who won’t be overwhelmed by the steps and is careful. And for adults they’re definitely the best route of administration. Just maybe not the most practical and easy thing for a teenager who has to do HRT in secret. :)
