Almost a year on t and...

the biggest lie I heard before starting was it would get easier to inject myself, that was a LIE. If my dedicated shot giver can't help I have to find someone to do it, my brain will not let me poke into my own skin

General psa to not just go for natural supplements claiming to boost testosterone or estrogen without looking into whats in it and what the ingredients actually do, because a lot of them will just boost LH and increase the more predominant hormone in your body or depend on what gonads you have. Im not sure how it would vary for different intersex conditions but unless its a drug that actually increases estrogen or testosterone or progesterone etc. (or is straight up the hormone) for anyone with any organs, its not going to give you your desired result.

Do research into what a drug or supplement does before taking it. Chances are, some boost hormones depending on the organs in your body and are not inherently masculinising or feminising(whichever effect preferred), and may have other unrelated effects on the body. I feel like people often ignore that herbal supplements can cause harm too, if taken improperly or with no knowledge of what they do to the body.

#just saw a “testosterone boosting” vitamin thing in a grocery store the other day w like fenugreek or some shit and #if you want your T levels to increase and you dont have testes organs in your body that function as expected you wont get any increase in T #if you take that #you may even get an increase in E. #so like. do your research #hopefully the “hrt pill” scam that was made to doxx transfems made ppl more aware of this but just in case #safety #drug safety #medication safety #trans #gnc #hrt #we're trans and intersex and dont mean this as fearmongering #we also know that its not easy to get hrt especially testosterone in most countries #but basically be careful w herbal supplements and other supplements that may have a cis perisex focused idea #of what the drug does written on the label

Ten years of transitioning 2013 to 2023

The way my facial hair is just now starting to fill in 9 years on testosterone and one year post hysterectomy.

My medical transition has unfortunately not been linear. My early medical care was handled by a negligent egotistical man that wound up losing his medical license and the impact that had on my body was a lot. After three years of my testosterone converting into estrogen as a result of being massively overdosed my body fortunately right as my hemoglobin was rising exponentially past dangerous levels I had an autoimmune reaction which allowed for doctors to take action preventing a stroke. Unfortunately, I now have an autoimmune condition, chronic pain, and mobility issues.

Sometimes when people hear that they ask if I regret my transition and are confused when I say I don’t. My transition wasn’t the problem. Testosterone wasn’t the problem. The fact my levels were so wildly unmanaged was. The fact I went to “doctor” Norman Barwin was.

I regret not educating myself about where my levels should be, not testing often enough, and trusting a old man that my social worker (who’d been working with him for years) told me “made a mistake in either cleaning or labeling his sperm and his patients sperm a couple times over the course of fifty years” (which actually turned out to be a couple hundred times). He also just blatantly cheated in the Boston marathon and people didn’t take that into account as a reflection of his character when the initial cases were investigated. I didn’t know that and I could have learned more had I screened the doctor I was being sent to with a simple google search- but I didn’t do that. I trusted my social worker and I trusted my “doctor”.

Learn to advocate for yourself. Educate yourself about your levels. Get tested every 3-6 months the first couple years on T and 6 months to a year if you’ve gone years with it stable. Don’t assume you’re fine because you feel fine. I didn’t feel anything was wrong until the day before I collapsed. Learn from my mistakes.

I can't stress this enough :)

Speaking as a RavWave rarepair shipper...

As much as I really don't want you to come into my blog and rhapsodise about your headcanon where Soundwave is either Ravage's parent or her child,

I would prefer you do that here than that you do that in my Ravage RP/Ask Blog.

I originally posted the Earthspark deleted scenes in Ravi's blog because an RPer told me about them.

And someone came in there to reply to Ravi's post: "Aw, she's her daddy's girl!"

(this is her "I will bite you" face.)

I just find this annoying as shit. (Also, they reblogged the post, so why could they not have put that commentary in the reblog or in the tags rather than replying directly so I would get a notification?)

The muse wants to bite people when they say things like this to her.

As a general rule, I answer everything on that blog in character as Ravage. It took a great deal of self-restraint not to reply, "Please do not imply that my conjunx is my father, because if you do, I will have to bite you."

(The blog name is "dontpetmeibite", the icon is a picture of Ravage from IDW with her name on it, and the front page of the blog says "femme IDW-inspired AU Ravage" so I guess I can see why this person said they didn't know it was an RP blog, except...not really, lmao.)

Almost 4 months on T and the ADHD and autism seem to be breaking out in its full glory. Well, I embrace it, as it helps me with getting rid of supressing my whole identity and neurodivergent needs.

I have read that adhd and asd can become more visible in women in menopause - increased testosterone levels... somehow gender-affirming HRT (ftm) could be similar. And when looking at the recent months, yes, for me it is very noticable.

I remember my first puberty, when it started at 12 yo, I was like somehow really odd in the brain - impulsive outbreaks of random thought gibberish, occassional screaming of dumb words that I could not stop saying/screaming, or making disturbing noises. Or talking gibberish endlessly, and deeply indulging in my special interests of theoretical fuckery. And observing people and social interaction just to try to understand the people around me. And trying to translate what people say in my own "language", which is, some sort of math, just to get a glimpse of what they are attempting to convey in their words.

I witnessed a large decrease of depression in the recent months, but also a slight increase in anxiety, mainly induced by increased sensory sensitivity and a far worse working memory.

Somehow T helps me - directly (via the biochemical alterations that also happen in the brain) as well as indirectly (via feeling more secure due to feeling more authentic, and also overcoming the fear of rejection when not heavily masking my neurodivergent self) - interestingly, it also helps me with dealing with my emotions. Before T they were far too intense, that I either shut them off entirely or became very moody. now they have a level where I can feel them in a healthy manner - not detached from them nor supressed, but somehow, more real and managable. In a sense, I am becoming more mature emotionally, as well as far more rational and logical.

And a lot of it makes me feel like being a 13 year old scatter-brained hyperactive boy who acts like an alien potato among humans - and who does not even understand his own silly associations.... ohh endless theoretical bullshittery...

But executive dysfunction sucks! The simpelst - especially practical - tasks are the most difficult for me - especially if they are extremely underchallenging and repetitive - repetition does not bother me if it's mentally challenging and stimulating enough. But for things where you need motor skills I entirely lack - it's like, really my body is a biological spaceship, and navigating it is disastrously exhausting! (Fine motor skills with a slight need of force - ends in maximal destruction!) (Dyspraxia is also getting more noticable.)

And my trains of thought disperse in literally all directions until they decay into brainy quantum foam dough. (What a hell of association?)

I'm just thinking about how much more stable I've made my joints over the past year. Imagine how much stronger I could become once my intestinal lining heals and I can, like, digest and metabolize food normally

#I don't expect to have NO joint pain bc that's absurd but like. it could improve #considering the like. 1) more T 2) treating vitamin deficiencies 3) absorbing synthroid again 4) actually digesting food??? #I'm going to gain the ability to bend steel bars with my bare hands. I might even become perky #boring text posts #medical #celiac tag #exercise
