Eunuch pilled 🔮 castration maxxing 🔮

Watching a movie with my parents and a sex scene comes on is SO much less awkward now that I have Nullification surgery. I think it's just how much more removed I feel from it.

(it is still possible to have some forms of sex, but for me it has been a major step away from the idea of me having sex which I've enjoyed)

[local-null-nb]

I've been remembering what it was like before nullification surgery the post few days and just once again REALLY appreciating my current body!

Like dang, having genitals was THE WORST, so glad it's just smooth now.

[local-null-nb]

Just stumbled across your blog and I just wanted to say- it's pretty cool! Nullification is so interesting to me, and even though I'm a fairly binary trans man getting nullification seems like an option for me, although it's not the only one I'm considering (phalloplasty is the one I probably will get, but nullification is either 2nd or 3rd after that.)

I'm not on T yet, so basically what I'm planning on doing depends on how I feel in the future so that's why I'm considering so many things, and I'm not totally sure what I want yet haha.

Sorry I'm autistic and I'm not great at formatting what I'm trying to say, but I just wanted to let you that your blog is cool and informative!

Also- I read that your E and T levels are like not at the level that is in cis male or cis female ranges. Dumb question but are your bones okay? I've always heard that having E and T at somewhat typical levels is what makes your bones not brittle but then again I'm kinda stupid so I'm not sure

I wish you well and your journey!!

You're absolutely right that a lack of testosterone or estrogen can cause bone density issues potentially leading to osteoporosis, however my understanding is that as long as you have healthy levels of at least one, you are okay. Personally I have estrogen levels within both the typical male and female ranges (high for make, low for female) but lower testosterone levels than either would typically have - since I have healthy estrogen levels I am not at crazy high risk for osteoporosis, however I also do take calcium supplements and do weight-based exercise to help decrease my chances.

Huh 100 notes, I wonder how that happened?

...

Welp, here you go!!

Got any ideas for genetic modifications?

sorry if this has already been asked!! i just saw your pictures and i have pubic hair similar to yours but it makes me super uncomfortable to not shave, but having a vagina and vulva makes it hard for me to shave fully. have you noticed a difference in how easy/hard shaving down there is? or how long it takes? thanks :)

It hasn't been asked and duplicate asks are okay!

It's definitely quite easy to shave physically, everything is just a smooth continuous surface.

My two issues were that it was I think the first time I shaved there so I wasn't used to positioning my body (if you shave often that shouldn't be an issue) and the nerves that I kept resulting in a very sensitive spot which made things difficult. Also while it's healing initially you likely won't be able to shave, for a few days, and you'll have to be mindful of the healing scar for a week - a month depending on how quickly it heals up. For me it was like 80% healed after a week and a half and then like 100% healed after 5 weeks.

If you're on the fence about keeping the nerves I highly recommend not keeping them, for me it doesn't even feel good but it never really did so take that as you will.

I didn't time it but I want to say I spent 15 minutes? I also generally suck at shaving and basically never shave there.

Thanks for the ask! Feel free to send more for any follow up questions or any other inquiries!

Was feeling dysphoric today and looked at my body in the mirror and the dysphoria went away???? Crazy what nullification surgery can do.

Feel free to send asks about Nullification surgery or my experience with it!

[local-null-nb]

How was peeing after the surgery? Did you need a catheter for a few days?

Yes, when I woke up from the surgery I had a catheter in and got it taken out a could days later when I left.

If I remember right the surgeon said that some people leave the same day and get their catheter removed then, but it's not ideal and not always available to be expedited like that.

Afterwards I was supposed to get some physical therapy but instead I just followed some YouTube videos very inconsistently so my recovery lasted a bit extra. Peeing was a messier and more often occurrence for a while. It still is a bit messier than it used to be if I hold it for too long, but nothing a few squares of toilet paper can't handle.

I'm pretty sure if you actually do the recommended pelvic floor therapy you'll have a better recovery vis a vis urination.

I'm open to any asks about Nullification surgery for anyone interested or curious!

Like 0, technically I'm within range of postmenopausal women but that's just because that covers anything under the typical range of premenopausal women (because of my reasonable estrogen this is safe, in menopause both testosterone and estrogen are lower)

(my testosterone is so low because I have neither testicles nor ovaries to produce it, only the trace amounts made by the adrenal glands)

Also regarding the previous reblog while I would consider myself altersex I think the given definition in that reblog is inaccurate and misrepresents intersex people. This definitely from the altersex subreddit is more accurate:

"Altersex is an umbrella term for all people who do not fit under the male or female sex binary, while also not having these sex characteristics from birth"

Oh? What's my "biological sex" you ask?

Well let's see -

I have no genitals

I have testosterone levels outside the expected range for cis men and cis women

I have estrogen levels inside the expected range for cis men and women

Previously I've had my voice drop and breasts grow due to hormones

In some medical systems I'm listed as male, in others female - with the transition steps I've taken though either one gives an incomplete picture.

[local-null-nb]

Sure and fair enough to use jargon - and the altersex classification makes sense and I might start using that so thanks!

however in this instance the intersex comparison it is incorrect as I'm explicitly not trying to emulate how an intersex variation could effect development, and definitely not trying to resemble an intersex person as that is even more poorly defined and less related to what I'm doing.

While there is some overlap between my experiences and those that people who are intersex can experience, the most shared experience I had was actually with an intersex friend I used to have who was also non-binary and wanted to take similar steps as me to medically transition - some of their goals were to undo procedures previously done to them but others were completely unrelated.

It's like describing a trapezoid as a parellelogram instead of a four sided shape - sure it's a more technical word but it's not what a trapezoid actually is.

Ehhh I mean I guess altersex could describe me but to my knowledge there is no Intersex variation that would result in my body configuration.

It's my understanding that comparing transition steps to intersex people in that way is generally considered rude and inaccurate. It'd be kinda like saying a trans woman is transitioning to being AFAB, while of course plenty of AFAB people don't identify with being female and have medically transitioned themselves.

Someone is still intersex even if they have procedures done to make them conform to male or female body expectations and/or fully identify with being female or male.

I'm going for a body wholely outside of what naturally occurs, between my transition steps and other body modifications I've taken such as aquiring magnetoreception via a special magnet implant.

Not intersex to my knowledge, I'm non-binary with Nullification surgery and HRT afterwards.

Crazy how much every bit of medical sex classification very quickly gets effected by some transitioning steps - cancer risks, medication dosages, organs present, and expected blood levels all do not conform to either standard male or female classification for me anymore.

Male and female can be shorthands for certain medical aspects, though for many people who have taken physical transition steps or are intersex trying to rigidly apply them as definitions lead to bad results.

Personally I recently got blood work done and had several levels flagged - turns out only one of them is unexpected for my current hormones and the rest were fine, meanwhile another level that the system marked good for my AGAB was in concerning territory (I just need to make dietary changes luckily)

This is because the system appearently can't be set for hormone levels, and just goes with standard male or female depending on what was assigned - I'm gonna ask my Endo if that can be adjusted though for the future.

😊 thanks!!

If only people didn't still see me and immediately put me in a box, but hopefully one day!
