I'm making a chart for the reasons I would/wouldn't want to start HRT. Listed below are just my personal preference. Could you suggest things for the list that I missed or correct my misconceptions?

chartBenefits

  1. Softer/clearer skin

  2. Keep the hair on my head

  3. Thin out body hair

  4. Fat redistribution

  5. Emotional changes

  6. Changes in sex drive

  7. Bein a certified cutie~

Neutral

  1. Breasts (this is sometimes in benefits depending on my mood)

  2. Changes to penis function

Negatives

  1. Reduced muscle mass/strength
  2. More routines I have to follow 😴

One thing i dont see mentioned is the social aspect. Some people are unable to hide the effects of feminizing hrt after a while, especially if they get a lot of titty. Idk if youre already out to everyone in your life, but this may be something to consider; there was a while where I was wearing a tight sports bra for weeks on end while visiting family or going to class and whatnot.

Also being a cutie should be number 1 not 7 💅

[–] Thallo@hexbear.net 6 points 3 days ago

I'm out to the people who matter~

It's a good consideration, thank you

Neutral

  1. Breasts (this is sometimes in benefits depending on my mood)

  2. Changes to penis function

Breasts I wondered if I'd put in neutral or negative when considering starting HRT and yet when I look down and think "uhh... gonna have to just start wearing a hoodie to hide these soon", I'm always find a smile accompanies that, so starting to think I should I put them in the positive despite that drawbacks (tenderness during puberty, more stuff bouncing around).

Penis function is probably a bit of a YMMV, but in terms of ability to get an erection via stimulation, I've had no problems so far. Change in fluids released could be a plus or minus though.

Thinner skin is also a thing I think. Not sure how much that actually matters.

Getting cold easier is also a thing. Which I guess is a plus for me given how hot it is here?

Some people get PMS symptoms.

Tbh, I'm 90% sure I'll feel this way, too.

That’s about right! I think this is a pretty good list. Little nuanced ones that are perhaps worth noting that the hair texture will also change on your head, and appetite as well. Many of us also on hrt report exhaustion, likely due to the body doing puberty 2.0.

The routines for me are really self love, but yes it is definitely more labor.

I’m not a medical professional, and I like to note that the effects of e are really not permanent or visible for the first month+. However, I and many other trans folk on T and E report that those emotional changes are really just something we could never go without again.

Give it a try if you’re curious! In all likelihood, you’ll know if E is for you pretty fast. I knew within 2 weeks.

I'm gonna try it. I'm just trying to get my mind straight and figure out what I want. Tbh, most of my dysphoria comes from my face and facial hair, and I wonder if I should be looking into FFS instead of hormones, but also I don't want to get surgery.

So, listing out the benefits of HRT helps me see what I want, and I'm trying to make sure that it's what I want instead of me just following what everyone else is doing. Usually, when I'm considering hormones, I'm having a fit of dysphoria and anxiety, and I'm not really thinking clearly. But at the moment, I'm feeling very stable, so I want to have a sober look at it.

Tbh, I'm more scared that I'll try it and not like it, so that's probably indicative of how I feel about it.

Thank you~

Going places with family is always so confusing, fam always like that cashier/waitress was checking you out or flirting with you were you not interested? creature is all I can say but even that isn't fair since some of my most spreadsheet/train loving creature friends got game. I've no clue how to flirt and when confided to friends of my crushes I'm just too subtle.

[–] TerminalEncounter@hexbear.net 11 points 3 days ago (4 children)

No, the waiter is never flirting with you (there are very rare and specific exceptions). This is standard boomer guy thought and behavior. The waiter is being nice because that's the job not because they're into you.

Saying that, I mean, maybe you're just super hot and you're one of the few and rare people where the waiter actually IS into you.

[–] Wmill@hexbear.net 9 points 3 days ago

Tbh it's usually my mom or sisters who tell me this stuff so I assume they just trying to hype me up, all three of them are boomer brain tho. Still my thoughts are service workers just doing their jobs

Kitties are so good at finding the EXACT spot to inflict maximum pain on boobs

[–] Luna@hexbear.net 6 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

It's like she's trying to cause me the most pain. I'm holding her away from them and she's just like "let me put my paw right...here!"

[–] Luna@hexbear.net 6 points 3 days ago

She will go out of her way to try and step on them. She was walking on me, and so far so good, but since she's restless it's going to happen anyway. I can't bring myself to take preventative measures though, she's just trying to be lovey.

Really enjoying Dragon Age Veilguard, playing the German dub with subs, no idea what the English version sounds like

The trans inclusive character creator is great, one of my favorite character creators, the graphics are beautiful and it runs really well on my computer 🏳️‍⚧️

Realizing that I don’t really get addicted to things, I just spend short periods really “stuck” on them. Thus, I must focus energy on avoiding unhealthy situations I get trapped in rather than trying to fight “temptation” once I’m trapped.

Made my puter a bit stronger by turning some stuff off and I can play around with dolphin pretty good. Got back into playing sonic and the secret rings no-copyright the game is so good and anyone who says it's bad just sucks at playing. Beat it before with the wiimote on og hardware now playing with a controller is even more fun meow-bounce. I was set for a while 100%ing all the 3d sonic games so with the adventure games done, heroes, and shadow and 06 now I move on to finishing the storybook games.
