It gets better. Just give yourself time. I spent so much time being eager for all these changes. Eventually I learned to let life take its course and before I knew it, I found everything I was waiting for.
Things I wish I knew when starting T
- Keep in mind that T doesn’t work overnight. You won’t turn into a big hairy man in 2 days and probably not even in a year.
- That being said also don’t expect minimal change. Especially mentally. Mental changes will happen a lot more than you expect both good and bad.
- Everyone’s body is different. Your voice may not start dropping until month seven. Sometimes it’s not the dose and sometimes it is. Not every doctor’s approach to testosterone will work for you.
- Your singing voice won’t disappear it may just take some time for it to get “back to normal”
- Periods don’t vanish overnight. And sometimes they get even longer than before. Be prepared for this.
- Some changes may happen a lot more than you expect some won’t or won’t happen to the degree you expected. Your growth may be a lot or only a little. You may grow a ton of hair in the first month. Be prepared but don’t have expectations.
- Doubting yourself especially during and after the first shot is normal. Just be patient and let your body grow.
- PEOPLE 👏 WONT 👏 THINK 👏 YOU’RE 👏 UGLY FOR 👏 BEING 👏 ON 👏 T! I can’t stress this enough. Your dysphoria is the one telling you you’re ugly. Don’t listen to it. You’re handsome and you deserve happiness.
- For some reason cis people, even when you know you 100% pass as a guy still misgender you. It’s really the small changes that count. Don’t let this deter you. Giving it time will help.
- Again with the don’t ahve expectations but don’t expect to grow muscles overnight. That’s just not how bodies work. Some people might find that this happens but it’s usually because they work out in the first place.
- Some things that you may not have wanted when going on T you may want now and vice versa. I went on T really not looking forward to body hair and now I love my body hair.
- Sometimes that big change that you were waiting on is anticlimactic, sometimes it’s the little things that count. Now I will look down at my arms and see a man’s arms and it makes me feel really euphoric.
- Fat redistribution takes a loooooong time. And usually you don’t even notice it when it happens.
- In the end it’s your body so do what you need to do to feel happy.

Top surgery, come sooner
I just want a huge trans guy meetup with nothing but love and support
I wonder how much weight I'm going to lose when I get top surgery

FTM
FTM trans culture is not knowing your cup size
Things I learned about being Female-to-male transgender
(That I wish I had known before that first shot..for good measure).
1. It is a possibility that the testosterone will affect your eyesight. I had absolutely no fuckin clue & about 6 months in I went to Walmart and couldn’t find the person I went with or read the signs in the aisles and I had always had perfect vision. Now I’ve had two prescription changes and have to yet again get a new pair of glasses.
2. Your clit will get large. It will look like a small penis. Not all ftm dicks look the same so don’t assume yours will be as big or as small as what you’re googling or searching on tumblr. Mine was a lot bigger than I expected or really wanted and now here we are. Me and the random trans boner that reminds me no time or place is safe from it 😂
3. Sex drive. Sometimes it’ll be SO BAD you cannot even sit still you wanna have sex. When I first started hormones my ex girlfriend and I did it in pretty much every room imaginable in a house in one day lol. Other days you won’t have one at all. Don’t be surprised if at some points you can’t get off or get sensation down there either. It happens, I have absolutely no idea why… but it’ll come back eventually.
4. Things will happen on your body’s terms. Not yours. Not always as fast or slow as other trans men. Don’t get discouraged, don’t make assumptions either. As long as your testosterone levels are in healthy range you just have to learn the patience and understanding that things will happen and to be appreciative to be on the journey at all. Your beard will grow in patchy and frustrate you for instance, but it will fill in. Once things start happening, it’s so worth it. It’s normal to have that “jealousy” of other trans men who are where you wanna be in your transition. Really try to be happy for them instead, and know they waited too.
5. There will be days of insecurity. Where you don’t feel tall enough, muscular enough, your voice isn’t deep enough, just man enough. Stop comparing yourself to other men. We aren’t made to all look the same. I’m a short skinny trans guy and it took a long time to accept it. We have a harder time accepting our “flaws” than others do, that’s a promise.
6. Love is possible. Don’t weigh yourself down thinking “No one will love me because I’m trans.” My ex had only been with cis men and would rub my scars until I fell asleep and bitch at my doctors who didn’t understand the transition I was going through. Even now as single, straight females don’t have a problem with what I do or don’t have for the most part. Because your MIND and your HEART outweigh your body. Always.
7. It’s not always fun. Blood clots are a heightened risk on testosterone. So are UTIs, vaginal infections, reproductive issues where you end up needing a hysterectomy… it can also affect your heart. So you need to have an educated doctor who monitors you well.
8. Testosterone can affect your mental health. And it inevitably will. You’ll have ups, downs and all overs. It is your responsibility to adjust hormones for comfort ability with your doctor but also to control yourself. “I’m on testosterone and can’t help it” is no excuse for violent or aggressive behavior. Ever.
9. Top surgery isn’t always “perfect.” The scars can be big, the recovery sucks (it did for me and many others, some have an easier time). I woke up screaming for pain meds and had just gotten fentanyl lol so needless to say it wasn’t enjoyable. Sometimes the nipple grafts fail and fall off, or they don’t turn out looking as we’d expect. My left one I lost the center of during healing. But luckily the scarring makes it look completely normal from afar. I mean at first I really hated that it didn’t all come out “perfect” but you come to love what you got and appreciate you even had it at all. So don’t have unrealistic expectations or you may be let down. Just remember not having tits was the ultimate goal.
10. Befriend.other.trans.men. It can get very lonely being in an experience that only you understand or know personally… and the people around you don’t. The best support you will get is from other trans men who can give advice, support, and know exactly what you’re going through physically and mentally. Even if it’s just here on tumblr. I’m telling you, you need them in your life. We are a family and sometimes all someone really has.

I shaved my face for the first time today WOOT

Often, I get caught up in feeling worthless and down about myself because of my identity. Here are some things that I remind myself in those times:
•You earn your body and your progress
•You get to customize your dick size if you get surgery
•Top surgery woot
•You'll get to see yourself genuinely becoming happy through time
•You go through more trials than a lot of people might, but that just shows how strong you are
•You go through something that most people won't understand, but that also makes you different from other people in a good way.
•You're strong
•Cis men have nothing on you given points above, especially if they're always going to be boys and you're a man
•You've lived life through two lenses
•You'll learn to love yourself eventually even though you might not now
•Testosterone will do you dang good, just wait
•Your feelings are valid
•Your life is worth living. Don't give up.
Years from now, we'll come back to where home was and look at our houses and think, "This is where it all started." The roads will be unfamiliar to the eyes but familiar to the mind, for it'll no longer be home. We'll look through the windows of new shops and stores and remember the old ones that used to be there and how often we would or wouldn't walk through them, looking for whatever the day called for. We'll look into our old houses and see how things have changed and remember that time does pass and that's not something that can be hidden or neglected. We'll look in the mirror and see that time has warped our youth. We'll visit siblings and remember how it felt to see them on the daily, yet not treasure the moments we saw them until now. We'll remember innocent fights with them and wish those times could be brought to life again just so we could savor our time with them just a little bit more. We'll see our parents or pictures of them if that's all we have and remember arguments and conflict and wish we didn't treat them how we did because all they really wanted was for us to be happy. We'll come back to a home that will no longer be what it used to be, all to be replaced by a new home- a home that we built. A home and a family that our children will look back on someday.
