Transition Status!!!

As some of you may know, I am a user of testosterone for gender-affirming care. I wanted to list some of the differences just in case some of y'all were curious about taking it and what to expect! Here's my experience! I also just want to talk about it cuz I haven't blogged in so long and I feel like rambling lol...

PLEASE REMEMBER: Not everyone who takes gender-affirming care will get the same results. Please consult with a doctor or professional ESPECIALLY if your family has a history of heart problems before deciding to take the leap! Many side effects can happen. With that out of the way, let's continue!


Since last month marks the anniversary of a full year that I've been taking T (yay!), I have noticed the following changes so far. I will divide them into physical and emotional!

PHYSICAL:

  • Deepened voice (the thing I wanted most lol)
  • Peach fuzz (aka more prominent facial hair) and more body hair in general
  • Growth...iykyk.
  • Increased libido (not really what I wanted but alright)

EMOTIONAL:

  • Irritation susceptibility increased
  • HEAVY mood swings (but I kind of already have those so...)
  • Increased emotional numbness and detachment
  • Increased confidence at certain times

I'm sure there are many more I'm forgetting to leave out, but that's it for now! Thank you for tuning in :))
