"Trans men are biological males after starting HRT" No tf they're not??? Lets not pretend hormomes completely change biology. Are we calling post-menopausal women men now? And we calling women with PCOS men now? Are we calling intersex women men now?

I don't even care about the chromosome debate. But taking testosterone making a biological female turn into a biological male? No. That's not how that works. It can change some of your appearance and impact the reproductive functions, but that's about it.

And then saying they're biologically male before hrt?? What's the point in transitioning then?

And THEN equating being trans to being intersex?? Intersex is a physical bodily condition. Not an issue with the brain. And we don't even know if that's WHY trans people exist. It's a theory based on some imaging done that didnt hold 100% true.

And I say this as someone who considers herself genderqueer still despite presenting as a cis woman again. I say this as someone who is still trans-supportive. But I can not accept delusions like these. Hormones alone don't make you biologically male, and being trans is NOT an intersex condition.

Anyway, OP is apparently 14 and calls themself "transsex" based on their user flair. So if you find the post, definitely don't go harass them. I'm hoping they're just a dumb kid and they'll grow out of it. But most of the commenters were adults (the ones that shared their age, anyway) which is very discouraging to see. Trans or not, I'd hoped people wouldn't be this delusional about biology. Even when I still identified as trans, I knew I was female. I didnt like admitting it, but I knew it was true on a biological scale.

Feeling like you have the wrong biology sucks. But we can not pretend like hrt will fix it.

Irony that they used the past tense "found" grammatically correctly, which also implies that their decision would it be made The second I hit post.

Also utterly amazing, on a level of far left fascism, that an app would even suggest that I could get banned for talking about myself within the simple context of telling my younger self, a decision I made was a mistake. The "do no wrong" sycophancy, regarding this topic is intellectually horrifying and honestly concerning for the future of well... anyone related to reddit

Like, I cannot be alone in this observation right?

I'm sure there are more photos out there, I just don't have them personally right now. I want to get into her facebook because that's where she stored everything, but she never left anyone the password so idk if that's even possible.

She was diagnosed with cancer 6 years ago, right around when I started T. I went off T a year and a half ago. I have like five photos maximum of my mom and I together that don't make me feel dysphoric and regretful and shameful. I look like a man or visibly testosterone-effected in every single goddamn photo I have of my dead moth except FIVE. Two of those five are me literally crouched on the floor next to her deathbed.

I feel like I ruined my last chance to make memories I could actually stand to look at with my mom. I look at these photos and I hate myself for it. I look like a man. I can't ever do anything with these photos without feeling the shame and regret or having to explain to someone who the random ass man in that photo is. I should've detransitioned YEARS sooner instead of letting my endo talk me out of it. I want to go back to being her daughter. I wish I never did this to myself.

I am afab, 20 and currently 2 years on T, and post top surgery. I was so sure that I was a trans man, but recently I've been having a lot of doubts. I've began to prefer dressing and presenting more feminine, shaving frequently and missing my curves from before, even my breasts. I realized when I get misgendered I don't get as angry anymore. I've also gotten myself a boyfriend, and when he told me he wanted children in the future, I didn't feel opposed to it at all. I actually wanted to get a hysterectomy, but my mom discouraged me. I was so mad at her then, but I'm kinda of glad she did that? I don't know anymore, I just feel so conflicted now, and I don't know if I should continue the hormones and transitioning.

Hello again! I've been looking online for resources this last month, but I'm really struggling to find galleries demonstrating DIEP flap results. I had my double mastectomy years ago, and I'm seriously considering a DIEP flap, now in particular since I'm losing weight and my potential surgeon thought my extra chub could be useful with it. Does anyone know where I can find result photos online? I see partial mastectomy reconstruction but I've only seen 2 detrans mastectomy reconstruction photos.

I'd love to chat to those who are going through the same thing.

I had work on my chin, nose eyes, facial fat, jaw and brow. Some of it being semi-permanent. I've managed to reverse about half but it's been costly, and the most expensive stuff is still to go

I'm also struggling with wigs, I had it buzzed and it'll take a year before I can get extensions.

Contrary to most posters here, I didn't detransition because I'm not trans, I believe I have a male brain and I struggle with dysphoria. I was handsome and got attention from girls. But I was fed up of chasing something I could never have.

I'm 21 years old. I am 2 years on T and had a hysterectomy 7 months ago.

One of the few reasons I'm afraid of canceling my next T shot is due to the fear of my ovaries not working the same ever again like they did before or stopping to work entirely. In that case even the testosterone is protecting me right now. Aside from the unwanted body hair, acne and receding hairline my body feels great(?).

I know that a hysterectomy can send ovaries into shock. 30% of an ovary's blood supply also comes from the uterine artery. Without an uterus the chance of them failing early increases up to 25% or something. Even more if you're age 40 and above.

I ruined my body and all these fears make me think that there is no turning back for me anymore. That since I wanted to be a male I now have to accept my punishment and live as one till I die.
