Binding using a proper binder is key to being comfortable and safe.

Binding will not harm your chances at top surgery. That is negative, "detransitioning" propaganda passed around by people who are not educated in the subject.

I found some links to purchase binders:

Here is one (based in Canada)

Thank you for sharing those photos of yourself that you have pinned at the top of your tumblr.

I've wanted a chest harness like that for years but never bought one because they always emphasize my breasts.

Thanks to you I'm more sure than ever that I need top surgery.

You look amazing. Thank you.

Thank you so much friend 🫶 I wish you luck on your top surgery journey, and if you or anyone reading this has any questions about the process I’m happy to answer!

Sex Alteration Guide (Bottom Surgery, Top Surgery, & Beyond!)

Hello! Just wanted to share our compiled list of sex alterations that can be performed. Thought it might be interesting for people who want to know.

If you want to learn about intersex types, we recommend reading our post here! And reblog it, please, to share awareness on intersex topics!

Trigger warning for mentions of genital mutilations on children, sexual activity, and sexual assault.

It may also be chosen by cis-men with gynecomastia, and transmasculine, non-binary, altersex, or intersex people that were unhappy with their breasts.

Areola Reduction: A procedure to reduce the size of the areola. This is done for aesthetic/personal reasons by people that were unhappy with their areola size. It could be reduction of the size they were born with/developed during puberty, a reduction after pregnancy and/or breastfeeding caused nipple stretching, or it could be done to someone who had nipple (re)construction and were unhappy with the size the surgeon created.

Nipple Reduction: A procedure to reduce the size of a nipple. This is done for aesthetic/personal reasons by people that were unhappy with their nipple size. It could be a reduction of the size they were born with, a reduction after long-term breastfeeding caused nipple stretching, or it could be done to someone who had nipple (re)construction and was unhappy with the size the surgeon created.

Cervical (Re)construction: A procedure to create or recreate a cervix. This is either done after a cervix has been damaged, or for intersex people with cervical agenesis or cervical hypoplasia (to prevent menstrual fluids from getting trapped inside and/or to allow for easier pregnancy.)

Hysteroplasty/Uteroplasty/Metroplasty: A procedure done to those with a bicornuate uterus, septate uterus, or uterus didelphys to merge both sides/remove any blockage between them. This is done to lower risk of miscarriage and premature birth.

Prostatectomy: A procedure done to remove the prostate. This is done due to injury/damage.

Penis Splitting: A procedure done to split the penis (or ambiguous genitalia that has a penis-like structure) open. It could be done for aesthetic/personal reasons, for additional sexual enjoyment, or to assist with urination in those with a shallow, blocked, or absent urethra. It may also be chosen by trans-women & non-binary, altersex, or intersex people that were unhappy with their penis.

It is also explored as a cultural practice in some Australian, Africa, South American, and Oceanic locations.

Meatotomy: When only the urethral area of the glans is split open.

Subincision: When only the underside of the penis is split open, but the top-side is left closed. This split can give the penis a labia-like appearance, and allow for easier time with sex toys that do urethral penetration. This could be only on the glans or down to the shaft.

Genital Bisection: When the penis is split open completely. This could be only on the glans or down to the shaft.

Perineal Urethrostomy: A procedure done to open a urethra beneath the penis, on the perineum. It could be done for aesthetic/personal reasons or to assist with urination in those with a shallow, blocked, or absent urethra. It may also be chosen by transfeminine, non-binary, altersex, or intersex people that were unhappy with the placement of their urethra.

Urethroplasty: A procedure to create or repair a urethra. This could be done due to injury/damage, because of urethral blockage or an tight urethra, chosen by those with metoidioplasties/phalloplasties or vulvoplasities, or chosen by intersex people with urethral traits. For intersex people with urethral agenesis, it is necessary for urination.

Circumcision: A procedure to remove the foreskin. This could be done for aesthetic/personal reasons, due to injury/damage, or to assist with urination and hygiene if urine was consistently trapped in the foreskin. It is also done as a cultural practice in several African and Oceanic cultures, as well as a religious practice for Jews, Muslims, some Christians/Catholics, and a couple smaller Abrahamic religions.

Dorsal Slits: A procedure to remove a piece of the foreskin, leaving a slit on the upperside of the penis that exposes the urethra on the glans. This could be done for aesthetic/personal reasons or to assist with urination and hygiene if urine was consistently trapped in the foreskin. It is also explored as a cultural practice by some Filipinos and Pacific Islanders. A Ventril Slit is the same, but on the bottomside of the penis.

Prepuitioplasty: A procedure similar to a dorsal slit, except the top of the foreskin isn't cut, and after the slit is removed, the foreskin is sewn back together. It is done to make the foreskin looser, to treat those with phimosis (foreskin that will not retract).

Hoodectomy: A procedure to remove part or all of the clitoral hood, or to reduce its size. This could be done for aesthetic/personal reasons (for example, someone with a long clitoral hood may choose to reduce its size) or due to injury/damage. It may also be done as a form of circumcision or dorsal slits for transmasculine, non-binary, altersex, or intersex people who wish to indulge in those practices.

Labiaplasty: A procedure to remove, reduce, or create labia (usually the labia minora, but this could apply to the labia majora too.) This could be done for aesthetic/personal reasons (for example, someone with labial hypertrophy or stretched labia may choose to reduce its size) or due to injury/damage. It may also be chosen to create labia for transfeminine, non-binary, altersex, or intersex people that wished for more neutral/feminine genitals, or alternatively to remove labia for transmasculine, non-binary, altersex, or intersex people that wish for more neutral/masculine genitals.

Labia Stretching: A procedure to stretch out the labia minora, gradually increasing its length. This could be done for aesthetic/personal reasons or for additional sexual enjoyment. It is also explored as a cultural practice by some African communities.

Vulvectomy: A procedure to remove part or all of the outer vulva (labia, hood, clitoris, & hymen.) This could be done for aesthetic/personal reasons or due to injury/damage. It may also be chosen by transmasculine, non-binary, altersex, or intersex people that were unhappy with their vulva.

Infibulation: A procedure to stitch close the vulva, leaving open enough for menstruation and urination (and in some cases, penetration.) In some cases, the labia, clitoris, and/or hood may be removed as well. This could be done for aesthetic/personal reasons, however it is sadly usually done as a form of genital mutilation of AFAB/AXAB minors in some African, Asian, and Middle Eastern cultures.

Hymenotomy: A procedure to open up the hymen of an intersex person that has a imperforate, microperforate, cribriform, or septate hymen. This is either done because of menstrual/sexual fluids getting trapped inside, to allow for easier penetration, or for aesthetic/personal reasons.

Hymen Reconstruction Surgery/Hymenorrhaphy: A procedure to create or repair a hymen in those with a vagina. This is usually done as a way to fake virginity or "become virgin again", which is influenced by the logical fallacy that hymens break/are stretched during penetrative sex (which is not always the case. They could remain intact, or be stretched by activities like stretching, gymnastics, yoga, horseback riding, etc.) It is sometimes done as a therapeutic procedure for victims of sexual assault/abuse that experienced hymen tearing/stretching during the attack.

Vaginectomy: A procedure to close, tighten, or remove a piece of the vagina. This could be done for aesthetic/personal reasons, due to to injury/damage, or to to block of prolapsing organs. It may also be chosen by transmasculine, non-binary, altersex, or intersex people that were unhappy with their vagina.

Vulvoplasty: A procedure to create or repair a vulva. If this includes the creation or repair of a vaginal entry, it is called a Vaginoplasty. This could be done due to injury/damage, or chosen by transfeminine, non-binary, altersex, or intersex people that were unhappy with their genitals. Labiaplasties and clitoroplasties are often a part of these procedures.

A Phallus-Preserving Vulvoplasty/Phallus-Preserving Vaginoplasty is when a person with a penis chooses to have a vulvoplasty/vaginoplasty, while keeping their penis intact.

Clitoroidectomy: A procedure to remove part or all of the clitoris. This could be due to injury/damage or for aesthetic/personal reasons. It may also be chosen by non-binary, altersex, or intersex people that were unhappy with their clitoris.

Clitoroplasty: A procedure to create or repair a clitoris. This could be due to injury/damage or genital mutilation. It may also be chosen by transfeminine, non-binary, altersex, or intersex people that were unhappy with their small or absent clitoris. For those that had a penis/psuedophallus pre-surgery, either the head or the shaft is used to create/repair the clitoris. For those that lost their clitoris, the recreated clitoris may just be for appearance - it can only be sexually stimulating if the internal clitoral tissue remained sufficiently intact. For those born without any phallus (clitoris, penis, or pseudophallus), the clitoris is created from the labia or scrotum, and is only for appearance.

Metoidioplasty: A procedure to "release" a clitoris enlarged by androgens, by cutting the ligaments that attach it to the pubic bone, allowing it to stand taller when erect, like a typical penis. They can choose to have a scrotoplasty (possibly with prosthetic testes) and/or a urethroplasty (where the urethra is opened on the head of the phallus) if desired. This procedure can be chosen by transmasculine, non-binary, altersex, or intersex people that had a large clitoris.

Phalloplasty: A procedure to create or repair a penis. When done only for the glans, it is known as a Glansplasty. When done only for a scrotum, is is known as a Scrotoplasty. This could be done due to injury/damage, or chosen by transmasculine, non-binary, altersex, or intersex people that were unhappy with their genitals.

For those that had a vulva (or vulva-like genitals) previously, they can choose to have a scrotoplasty (possibly with prosthetic testes) and/or a urethroplasty (where the urethra is opened on the head of the phallus) if desired. If they had a clitoris/phallus previously, the penis is crafted using either some or all of the nerves to induce sexual sensation. If erection is not naturally possible, an implant is placed inside of the penis, in order to activate it manually.

Penectomy: A procedure to remove part or all of a penis. This could be done due to injury/damage or aesthetic/personal reasons. It may also be chosen by transfeminine, non-binary, altersex, or intersex people that were unhappy with their penis.

Genital Nullification: A procedure to remove the genitals, creating a smooth area in its place. Only the urethra (and optionally, sexually stimulating nerves) are left behind. If the sexually stimulating nerves are kept, they can be tactile (buried under the skin, but stimulated through touch) or visual (a lump of nerves, similar to a clitoris.) It may be chosen by transgender, non-binary, altersex, or intersex people that were unhappy with their genitals.

Genital Beading: A procedure to insert beads into the shaft of a penis/phallus or labia. It could be done for aesthetic/personal reasons or for extra sexual stimulation during intercourse (like ribbed condoms/ribbed dildos), almost like "built-in" sex toys. It may also be chosen by altersex or non-binary people that wished for their genitals to have a specific appearance. The beads could be any shape, though they are typically round.

Coelingh Bennink, H. J. T., Schultz, I. J., Schmidt, M., Jordan, V. C., Briggs, P., Egberts, J. F. M., Gemzell-Danielsson, K., Kiesel, L., Kluivers, K., Krijgh, J., Simoncini, T., Stanczyk, F. Z., & Langer, R. D. (2023). "Progesterone from ovulatory menstrual cycles is an important cause of breast cancer." Breast cancer research : BCR, 25(1), 60. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13058-023-01661-0

According to this overview, the hormone that causes breast cancer is progesterone from menstrual cycles, not estrogen or testosterone. The risk of developing breast cancer is about the same whether someone has normal menstrual periods or takes birth control to suppress their periods. The risk may be slightly higher in the latter case. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) doesn't cause a higher risk. Transgender women who take estrogen develop breasts that are the same as those of cisgender women, but with a much lower risk of breast cancer than cisgender women, and higher than that of cisgender men. Transgender men do not increase their risk of breast cancer by taking testosterone, and top surgery reduces their risk.

with respect to myself, this whole “i need to wait till i’m out of school to date,” “i need to wait till i’m more historically, politically, and culturally educated to date” is all bullshit. it’s the top surgery. that’s the holdup. they chop these tits off and i’m ready to go.

As a professional gay or career queer, I often have to use my gender and sexuality as an educational tool.

I work with youth and so I use it to show them that I can exist in my (very red) State and that there’s not one way to be gay. I take on a mentor position as all they need is that hope to keep on fighting.

I have made it known that if friends or community members have questions about gender and sexuality and they are not sure if it’s appropriate to ask a queer person that they can come to me.

With this - I feel like I have given away my identity.

In June, I went to go get a consultation for top surgery and my plan was to keep this to myself. It would be my present to myself, a little piece of my identity that nobody knew about.

But the next day, I was in the car with a younger queer adult and I was trying to get them to open up to me so I could make sure they were okay. And without thinking, I gave my precious piece of identity away. Of course it worked. they told me they were trying to get HRT and was looking online. They said one site they were looking at ended up being run by neo n*zis, which I was so glad they told me so I could get them better resources. So I know that decision was helpful but there was still a part of myself that felt like I betrayed myself.

I gave it away again at a talk, that I don’t even know why I did but I did. I was presenting on Pride Flags and how they brought joy to everybody, when I was done a man got up to ask me a three part question about: transgender students in sports, gender affirming surgery, and book bans. I tensed up, I was already so emotionally charged because of pride month that I went on defense mode. I shared my happy joy of my journey in defense of my community. I left that talk feeling like a piece of me was gone.

I love my job as it allows me to be a voice to youth who feel like they have no voice. I love being a mentor to allies, so other queer people don’t have to be barraged with questions asking them to explain their sexuality and gender.

But at the end of the day, I’m left alone with pieces of my identity spread across my State.

Egg Retrieval- Basic Facts.

If you are considering "freezing your eggs (Oocyte cryopreservation) " here is an article for you.

So the process of "harvesting" your eggs prior to either IVF or Freezing, is called: Oocyte Retrieval.

The process of Oocyte Retrieval is rather simple and does not take much time. It requires four months off of testosterone and the time until your procedure (aprox another 14-15 days). Meaning you would be off testosterone for four and a half months total approx (everyone is different, ovulation schedules are different).

They start with timing your ovulation cycle and using that to determine a time that would be best to perform the procedure.

The average time range where you would have a stimulation cycle where you would be taking a "stimulating" medicine of some sort, takes 10-14 days total. This depends on your ovulation cycle, reproductive health, and other bodily factors can vary the days slightly more.

After that 10-14 days (on average) the procedure itself would be performed. The procedure takes approximately half an hour, I've read some doctors using general anesthesia without intubation (you're not 100% out, they may tell you it's like a "twilight state"), or with a strong oral seditative. This varies clinc to clinic.

The procedure itself should not be painful.

Post procedure you may feel abdominal cramping and general discomfort for up to a day or two.

prior to any of these procedures you will need to make an appointment with a gynecologist where they would have to do some minor testing that may take some time. This may include ultrasounds (inside and out), a general care appointment if you are a new client, blood testing, and sometimes they may want other forms of testing done as well depending on you and your reproduction cycle and health.

Any of these following symptoms see a physician right away!

If you have any sign of fever

If you have any signs of infection (such as foul smelling discharge)

Extreme discomfort

Not being able to eat and drink.

I also included a link specifically on the complications of this procedure. Find it here or in the source section.

Also you can re-start your hormone therapy after your procedure is done.

The quality and quantity of the eggs is very similar to a cis female.

trying to convince myself im not a bad person for not always engaging in political discussions and activism and mutual aid online

[pouetpouetduckbaudelaire]

okay, sex education may have its weaknesses but I have to say that after watching the last season, I'm truly admirative. I've just never seen such good representation in a show (quality-wise AND quantity wise). of course it's mostly a comedy and there is just a lot of characters to develop in limited time, so some themes are treated in a lighter tone and more superficially than some people would have liked ... but still. I never thought i'd live to see some stuff that was shown or talked about, and on such a wide-audience tv show. the choices they made were ballsy, I felt like they really tried to be thoughtful and sympathetic and I think they really succeeded in telling touching, real and true queer, poc and disabled stories.

[brothersonahotelbed]

when you're talking to a trans person about their identity & the way they view themselves, there comes a point when you really just need to take a step back and say . i will not, and probably never will be able to understand exactly what this person is feeling. i need to accept that, as much as i want to interrogate and question and throw hypotheticals into the air like they're rice at a wedding, i won't understand what they're going through. i just need to trust that they understand themselves enough to make decisions that are good for them.

Managing Stress for a Healthier Heart: Practical Tips

Introduction

In the present high speed world, stress has turned into a practically undeniable piece of our lives. While a specific measure of pressure can be useful, persistent pressure presents huge dangers to our wellbeing, especially our heart wellbeing. Overseeing pressure successfully is pivotal for keeping a solid heart and by and large prosperity. This blog will give useful hints to assist you with overseeing pressure and backing a better heart.

Understanding the Connection Between Stress and Heart Health

Stress sets off an outpouring of physiological reactions in the body, frequently alluded to as the "survival" reaction. At the point when this reaction is actuated, your body discharges chemicals like adrenaline and cortisol. While these chemicals are valuable in short explodes, constant pressure can prompt:

Expanded pulse and circulatory strain

Irritation in the cardiovascular framework

Undesirable survival strategies, like gorging, smoking, or exorbitant liquor utilization

Higher gamble of creating coronary illness, hypertension, and stroke

Understanding this association highlights the significance of overseeing pressure for a better heart.

Reasonable Ways to oversee Pressure

Work-out Consistently

Active work is a strong pressure minimizer. Practice discharges endorphins, which are normal state of mind lifters. Go for 30 minutes of moderate activity, like strolling, swimming, or cycling, most days of the week.

Practice Care and Contemplation

Care and contemplation can assist you with remaining present and diminish nervousness. Basic practices, as engaged breathing or directed reflection, can fundamentally bring down feelings of anxiety. Applications like Headspace or Quiet deal with direct meetings to kick you off.

Keep a Sound Eating regimen

Eating a fair eating regimen wealthy in natural products, vegetables, entire grains, lean proteins, and solid fats can assist with settling your temperament and energy levels. Stay away from over the top caffeine and sugar, which can add to tension and stress.

Get Satisfactory Rest

Unfortunate rest can intensify pressure. Hold back nothing long stretches of value rest each evening. Lay out a loosening up sleep time schedule, stay away from screens before bed, and establish an agreeable rest climate.

Remain Associated

Solid social associations can offer close to home help and assist you with overseeing pressure. Make time to associate with loved ones, whether through in-person visits, calls, or video talks.

Deal with Your Time Successfully

Unfortunately, using time effectively can increase stress. Use apparatuses like plans for the day, schedules, and time-hindering procedures to coordinate your undertakings and focus on what's generally significant.

Figure out how to Say No

Overcommitting yourself can prompt burnout. Figure out how to express no to undertakings or commitments that are not fundamental, and agent whenever the situation allows.

Participate in Side interests and Exercises You Appreciate

Getting some margin for side interests and recreation exercises can give a genuinely necessary break from pressure. Whether it's perusing, cultivating, playing a game, or creating, find what gives you pleasure and make it a normal piece of your daily practice.

Practice Profound Breathing and Unwinding Strategies

Strategies like profound breathing, moderate muscle unwinding, or yoga can assist with quieting your brain and lessen actual strain. These practices should be possible anyplace and whenever, making them flexible devices for stressing the executives.

Look for Proficient Assistance When Required

Assuming pressure becomes overpowering, feel free to provide proficient assistance. Advisors, guides, and care groups can give systems and backing to assist you with adapting all the more really.

Conclusion

Overseeing pressure is urgent for keeping a sound heart and generally speaking prosperity. By integrating these functional tips into your everyday daily practice, you can lessen pressure, further develop your heart health, and upgrade your personal satisfaction. Keep in mind, making little strides consistently can prompt huge upgrades by they way you feel and how well your heart capabilities.

"I hate what you're doing to your body."

That's because you're comfortable as who you are. I'm not. That's why I'm changing. You can hate it all you like but it's necessary for me.

unless you wanna write my obituary, of course.

being dead sounds just as relieving as transitioning.
