ONE MONTH MARK!

Proud to be here!

Meant to update this last week, but things got in the way. I had a list of things from week 3 that I will jot down here along with the month mark.

VOICE CHANGES (already?!) Friends and I have noticed a difference in how my voice sounds. It sits differently and my throat felt strained for a bit.

BOTTOM GROWTH. Nothing crazy yet, but noticeable. It feels kind of like it’s rubbing against jeans and is kind of “tight” feeling sometimes. I do not wear jeans and it is not touching anything. I CAN GET HARD?

DROWSINESS. I am SO tired.

APPETITE. I’m not a real snacky person or anything but i’ve been munching throughout the day.

BODY ODER. AGAIN.

UPDATES ON PREVIOUS NOTES:

-CONFIDENCE. I am feeling more confident after the initial few weeks. My anxieties have faded a bit.

-LIBIDO. Increase, by a lot. I (once again) am asexual so it is interesting to see those two things kind of fight in my brain. I don’t have any bets placed on either yet.

I overall feel more stable than I felt the first couple weeks. Work is good, the guys there don’t know whether i’m afab or amab from what i’ve heard so it’s all working out pretty well. I will be updating hopefully weekly again, but no promises if i’m busy. As always, ask whatever questions you want! If I don’t answer today, I will next week or whenever I update again.

Hello! I’ve decided to do weekly updates. I was stalling on this one lol.

I’m now a week and 2 days on T! Hooray. Here are some things i’ve noticed.

-BODY ODOR. Please dear god invest in a good deodorant. My tip is to use rubbing alcohol wherever the stink is, let it dry, and then put on deodorant. It kills the bacteria that cause it. A little goes a long way.

-INCREASED SENSITIVITY. Both physically and mentally, i’ve been real sensitive and crying a lot more. I have an anxiety disorder that is usually controlled by my meds, but i’ve noticed an increase in anxious thoughts (never enough to cause a panic attack, more passive anxiety about change) Physically I have been more sensitive to heat and sensations like pleasure and pain.

-FATIGUE. I’ve been super sleepy during the day, and it’s hard for me to go an entire day without falling asleep at least once.

-LIBIDO. They weren’t joking about getting an increase in libido. I’m asexual and don’t get thoughts like that a lot, but it’s been a noticeable difference.

-AFFECTION. I have been tons more affectionate with the people I love. My friends and family have noticed. My filter that tells me I can’t say things like that has been lessened.

-BOTTOM SENSITIVITY. More physical sensations. It hurts sometimes.

Will update more next week. Feel free to ask any questions!

T DOG DIARIES

HELLO WORLD !

My journey has started! As of Wednesday, June 25th, it is my first day being on testosterone injections! I haven't seen many people be fully transparent about the process, or the effects of testosterone in hrt. I want to document my process, answer those weird or freak questions you may have, and educate people about resources and community.

THE BEGINNINGS - NO INSURANCE HELL

I personally use planned parenthood for my prescription, you DO NOT need a gender dysphoria diagnosis, and often times can get the prescription same-day. I do not have insurance, so the appointment was 189$, the actual 4 week supply cost about the same, and i have 3 months worth of refills for the next and following month. I pay completely out of pocket.

They start you out on a lower dose of T, for me it is .2 ml / week. They supplied me with 1 ml bottles, which are SINGLE USE. There WILL be waste.. do not give in to the lil voice telling you it'd be cool to take more than what's recommended to start out with, there ARE side affects.

Appointments are every 3(ish) months for the first few visits, but will gradually increase in time between till i only have to see them once per year.

I will make posts on this page that are MATURE at times, I believe that whoever wants to be educated on these topics should be allowed to, so my page is NOT NSFW. I will discuss genitalia and sex and all that, but it will be for EDUCATIONAL purposes. You are free to ask WHATEVER YOU WANT TO KNOW - but do not ask me for photos of my bits or bobbles. I can show most parts of the process, and will give updates about weight and such, but pictures will only be provided if I myself am comfortable, and will never have explicit nudity.

I will not censor myself with softer terms for genitalia, I use terms like boobs and clitoris. I am fully AFAB.

NAME AND PRONOUNS

I only wish to spread awareness and educate people about trans experiences. I do not wish to have a name tied to this account, so call me tDog or Koda. I use he/it pronouns.

THIS PAGE IS SAFE - QUESTIONS WILL NEVER BE MET WITH JUDGEMENT. CREEPS (pedos, zoos, etc...) WILL BE BLOCKED WITH NO WARNING.
