what happens if you apply a bit of testogel Once. Is it nothing or would I just break out due to the sudden hormone imbalance

[stealthbeeeeep]

If you applied it once nothing would happen, the dose isn’t big enough

[stealthbeeeeep]

I've heard gel is more expensive and less effective is that true? I've been considering gel instead of shots because I'm terrified of needles. Im relying on insurance to cover it because I can't afford to pay out of pocket so if it's affordable that would be great.

More expensive: Unfortunately yes that’s true for my gender clinic and I think most private gender clinics. I’m assuming you’re in the US but I’ll share the prices for mine anyway

Testogel: £40 for a one month supply (if your dose is two pumps)

Sustanon: £10 for a one month supply (once a month injection)

Nebido: £97 for a three month supply (once every three months injection)

I’m currently on one pump of gel so for me it works out as £60 for three months which is cheaper than the every three months injection. But the monthly injection is still way cheaper.

Less effective: No! There’s a myth that gel doesn’t work or works at a significantly slower rate than injections. Your testosterone levels will be monitored and you can achieve the same levels as injections.

I will say there is a large possibility of user error with gel. The gel absorbs into your skin over a few hours so it isn’t just a one and done thing everyday.

All I can say about that is read the instructions! And follow them! I have seen people online talk about having slow results on gel and then talk about applying it incorrectly. Like yeah lol that’s like being on injections and injecting half the dose and complaining about not seeing results.

With testogel (there might be slightly different advice for a different brand of gel), you apply it in a thin layer on dry skin. You don’t rub it in. Then you have to let it dry for 3-5 minutes and make sure the area is covered by your clothes. You can’t have skin-to-skin contact with anyone on the area you applied it for 2 hours after application because it can transfer to them. You also can’t wash the area for 2 hours after application. If you don’t follow the instructions correctly, you won’t get the full dose of testosterone.

I recently hit 2 years on testosterone and I’ve been on gel the whole time. I’ve seen a lot of misinformation about testosterone gel so if anyone has any questions about changes on gel feel free to send me an ask, I have anon on and any questions are okay.

has anyone ever modified a worn out binder to make it tighter? i’m so dysphoric rn because both my gc2b binders are worn out at this point and i can’t afford a new one right now. even when i can get one as a gift i’m so anxious about when it’ll stretch out and it makes me not want to wash it.

[stealthbeeeeep]

so here’s what i’m thinking might work

first pic: showing around how much fabric i would get rid of by sewing

second pic: i put the safety pins where i would sew. i would sew along them which would create a long tab of extra fabric. i tried it on with the safety pins on it and it was definitely tighter. i realised i want the lower bit of the chest bit to be tighter because that’s stretched out the most so i’m not sure if i should make the extra fabric more near the bottom?

Reelmagik 5inch uncut soft basic packer review

Packing: I love the way it looks and feels. It just looks really natural in boxer briefs for me. It took me like a week to figure out how to position it in a way that looked good to me and still felt secure. I originally put it so the shaft aligned with my growth if that makes sense. This felt secure but I didn’t love how the bulge looked. I found that moving it up a bit made the bulge look a lot more realistic and still felt secure. For me short boxer briefs/hipster style boxer briefs work best.

Size: The size of the packer made me worry it would look way too big and it honestly doesn’t at all. It’s somewhat noticeable in pants (I’ve worn it with joggers, jeans and shorts) but definitely doesn’t look huge or anything. I mean if you were actively trying to notice it, you would but it’s not massive. For the record I’m 5’5 so this might not be the case for everyone. It’s definitely more noticeable in shorts and light coloured bottoms though.

Feel: I haven’t got the regular model but I’m 99% sure I would prefer the soft model. It straight up feels like skin. That’s the first thing I noticed. LITERALLY FEELS LIKE SKIN IT’S SO COOL. It’s probably more comfortable than the regular model if you have growth.

Discreet packaging: Their website promises discreet packaging but mine just wasn’t lol. The package said “5 inch uncut model” which is uh. pretty obvious what it is. I don’t know if this was because it had to go through customs (I’m in the UK) because their website does say they have discreet packaging.

Price: I got one of the defective models which was $33 with $29.50 shipping to the UK. I had a discount code so I payed $55.90/£44.67. I’m definitely happy with that price. I had a customs charge of £15.15.

Defective model: They can’t tell you what the defect of the packer is so buying a defective one is taking a chance but from what I’ve seen the defects are usually minimal and they’re aesthetic issues like air bubbles, small tears etc that don’t affect packing ability. You can read about it on their website. Mine had a small tear underneath the balls. I’m fine with it because it’s not really noticeable because I don’t really look there apart from when I’m cleaning it.

Overall thoughts after a few months of using it: I’m so happy with it! I use it every day and I honestly didn’t think I would feel this good about a packer. The only other packer I’ve used was a Mr Limpy (Extra small) and I didn’t really like it. It was fine but it never became an every day thing. But the reelmagik is amazing. I seriously barely have bottom dysphoria anymore. My only issue is that the front of the shaft has started to “chafe” from rubbing against my boxers. This is purely an aesthetic issue that I don’t really think can be avoided but it still kind of sucks.

Feel free to ask any questions in the replies or DM me if you want to know anything else about it!
