#transition bottom growth

[beans-tour-diary]

Day 83

I need bigger underwear.

The bean has been visibly growing for a while now. Over the last few weeks or so, it got incredibly sensitive. Nothing compares to the feeling of fabric being pulled over it, when it's a bit far out of it's little house.

I would like to say "No-one prepared me for this!" but it's just an impossible thing to actually explain how it feels.

You know when your leg falls asleep and it get all tingly? Imagine that but downsized. Same amount of tingles, smaller space. And make it faster. All this on a surface area of a few millimetres.

I don't know if anyone will read this in their preparation for their transition. But if they are, they should know that it's nothing like you expected. It's your expectations made into a smoothie with a bit of chaos in there. It's amazing but you're not quite sure if your even able to taste any of the original ingredients.

It's also not a constant change. Sometimes you notice three different things in one day, then nothing exciting for a month. And sometimes people around you will notice things before you do. It's weird. But not in a bad way.

btw my body is still shivering because I accidentally touched the bean with my panties as I was putting them on 🥲 Feeling how different my body is nice, but not like that... I could do without brutal overstimulation.

im the evil transsexual undoing transphobes and baby trans ppls fearmongering about bottom surgery and informing trans ppl yes u can get bottom surgery theres a very low risk involved with them and theyre very customizeable. im out here letting the baby tgirl know that a neovagina can actually be penetrated and im telling the nonbinary butch that they can actually get two seperate penises if a surgeon lets them (if they get on t) AND they can keep their urethra where it is. im out here undoing years of fearmongering fuck u all. hits u with my research beam

No one warns trans boys about anything fr. Voice dropping? Hurts like hell and you sound dorky (affectionate and passes quickly dw). Leg hair in skinny jeans makes your legs feel numb after a while. Bottom growth too big so you have to choose which side of the seam it goes on, but so small itll break rank and shoot pain so bad youll see god into your stomach everytime you step wrong (also passes and is not permanent. And funny.)

Trans men and transmascs please share the things no one warned you about transitioning is so sexy and fun

Bottom growth is the best. It’s absolutely insane to me that I can look back on a picture of My Nonsense prior to T (which was only two months ago!) compared to a picture of My Nonsense now and be like “damn. I have grown a wee penis in less than a fiscal quarter.”

[love-ardour-anarchism]

call it multitrack drifting the way i got that autistic t-girl puppy swag (arf arf) and how I'm packing meat like i'm a t-boy working at the Kraft Foods plant (factory noises)

[tendergutzz]

some of the things i've seen people say make them nervous to start HRT, its like what??? that's what's stopping you?? what the fuck are you talking about???

[answersfromzestual]

what does a tdick like... actually look like? or how they behave post-testoterone and pre-surgery? I haven't really been able to find like anything educational about how they work- what the look like, how they differ from other genitalia during sex and/or arousal, any of that stuff. I'd really appreciate it if you could explain it?

Bottom Growth or T-Dick Info:

For educational purposes only

I will be calling a "T-dick" a "T-phallus" in this answer.

I highly suggest all read through my second source, it is very informative about growth, sensations, and also has some good general knowledge as well.

Clitoral hypertrophy: the clitoris growing in length and width while taking testosterone.

So a t-phallus very much looks like the head of a penis, the shape, the contours, it just doesn't have a hole for urination like a penis or a shaft especially when you are aroused. A t-phallus gets erect when you are aroused just like a penis. It is considered the pleasure organ.

During arousal (turned on), it actually swells up and fills with blood, becoming erect and more stiff (hard)

While your t-phallus gets bigger on testosterone many people describe their changes in their orgasms and pleasurable feeling. For example you may like a different kind of touch now because that feels more pleasurable. "Some people describe feeling a more erection-like sensation when aroused." - source 2

Typical bottom growth on testosterone therapy is typically 1 to 4 cm, sometimes even more, this growth varies. One small study¹ about bottom surgery reported the average length of bottom growth measured from 2.5 cm to 4 cm in the study participants who eventually underwent surgery. Another study² found that at the one year mark, the average growth was 4.6 cm.

During sexual intercourse with someone with female genitalia: will require you to use a dental dam as protection (dental dam information), this is just basically a sheet of latex or another kind of plastic (like male condoms), to prevent direct contact. You don't not just need to use one during oral sex but if you are rubbing your genitals together it may be a good idea. If you are sharing toys make sure to clean them thoroughly between using it on the opposite person. (Making sure sex toys are clean is always a good idea).

If you are having sexual intercourse with cis males/ male genitalia: you should be requiring that person to wear a condom, even if they are trans themselves, any bodily fluid contact can spread a STI. Or you can use female condoms.

Here are some articles on sexual health.

- a more realistic view.

You can see that there is a tip that gets slightly thinner with the connective tissues. So you have a head of a penis to put it very generally and your 'shaft' is almost buried in the connective tissue/ hood (which I used to call my 'foreskin', it made me feel more comfortable.

Fun facts: We all are actually considered to have female genitalia in the womb until about the second trimester of pregnancy, then your body gets a flood of either estrogen (X) or testosterone (Y), which is what tells your body to form the genitals. This is actually interesting because it shows that the clitoris is actually a tiny penis in a way, since it actually does become a penis as a fetus develops. - I learned this in my child development class.

lord i see what you do for others (hrt actually having drastic effects on build and voice) and i ask you when is my turn? (it's approaching 2 years now)

Day 108

I kinda missed the 100, but whatever. The stuff happens whenever it wants to anyways. Like how my skin got way worse over night around day 96. That wasn't the only thing where I felt the hormones hitting... My brain seems to get less blood, because my nether regions need it to have a party. The body of teenage boy I guess.

For anyone who's planning to do testo: there will be a point at which you're going to search forums on how to clean your bottom growth. Don't worry, there's enough people who already asked and also enough answers. Still, it's weird. It's not really painfull just an intense weird feeling. But you also have to be thorough because the stuff is growing and has a little hat. It's just way weirder than I expected.

I'm still waiting for the day when I can finally show of my little mustache hairs. Right now there's not much, but I know it's more!

I also got a very good present: a plushie!!! It's the plushie dreadfuls dysphoria plushie and I love it! It's now my transition mascot. Well, the second one. The more, the merrier!

[boyswillbedogz]

BAFFLES me when my friends are discouraged from t bc of bottom growth??? what do you MEAN you dont want a lil guy down there??? thats one of the things im excited about??? thats one of the fun parts???

[zaydenschange]

How long is this bottom growth going to take?? I’m an impatient person lol and I want this to speed up and I know I can’t make it go any faster but good lord I want it to grow. I picture it like an old school chia pet. Water it and pray it grows lol I pray genetics are on my side

[forget-me-not-automaton]

One thing that I’ve learned about being on T is that when the bottom is growthing it either feels like you need to piss really bad (trying to doesn’t help) or like your crotch has been springlocked and there is no in between-

Question for trans people, or anyone who's knowledgeable about testosterone (TMI warning):

I'm an intersex 2spirit girl who has a vagina and a clitoris. (I'm not sure if I was operated on at birth or not, which makes this harder.)

I was prescribed a cream that has both low-dose estrogen and testosterone in it to help with my genital pain. Will the estrogen cancel out the effects of the testosterone, or could this cream still give me bottom growth?

I want bottom growth without the other effects of testosterone. But given that I present as a girl, use she/her pronouns, and so on -- and that I live in USAmerica -- I highly doubt that my doctor will prescribe me T gel.

So I'm hoping this will work.

[structural-integrity]

not to be tmi on main but I wish I had bigger t-dick.

is there a finite like… time frame in which you get bottom growth when you’re on T? I was on a low dose for a couple years probably? d’you think there’s hope yet for more bottom growth if I got back on/got on a higher dose? I have no knowledge (though I do know some changes just finish and then stop changing yknow, like voice dropping lol it’s not gonna keep dropping indefinitely)

I mean i’m already considering going back on T for more facial hair growth and like facial masculinizing, but is there hope for more bottom growth or has that ship sailed as far as it’ll go?

[houseofwolvess]

okay not to be tmi here but like. why is it that every doctor at planned parenthood (minus the one i had today) always assumes i hate my bottom growth and want it to stop. like if i mention it along with the other changes, they express sympathy and ask if i want them to lower my dose or pause my transition and like?? what??? huh???? why is that the first thing that comes to your mind?????
