so today is week 12 on T. i just got my shot today~
soap here i go with some more updates on my body and stuff at almost three months.
so first of all, my experience isn't anybody else's experience. a lot of it is up to your body and what it decides it wants to do with the t. but here's just my experience with it. it's a little long but i feel like it's a good read~
my voice. it's still not at a level i like. which like. there's not much i can do abt that. i know that it's not high anymore. esp when im sleepy. got that sexy rumble voice no but seriously. it's definitely deeper. i didn't have that much of a problem with my voice cracking actually. i mean it does crack if i try to sing too high or if im screaming or whatever. for the most part though my normal speaking voice has been very chill. have not relearned how to sing yet lol. i still want to sing along to all my favorite women singers only to find i can't do that. which is a little sad. but even a lot of male singers are a little bit too high for me right now since my voice cracks still.
um if you want to know kind of where my voice sits, if you know Ludo from Star Vs. the Forces of Evil. I can match that voice like. almost perfectly. I mean it doesn't sound like that unless i make it but same kind of. level??in one episode he says "can you say proud of me though?" i have that line DOWN.
hair growth. I AM A BEAR. listen not everybody is going to be as hairy as i am or even grow body hair as fast as i can. my doctor literally told me like FIVE YEARS on t before i could grow a nice beard. now obviously i can't grow a beard right now not at all. but i legitimately already have to shave because i grow a lot of random long, dark hairs on my chin/cheeks. and a lot of smaller thinner neck beard hairs. also my mustache gets long fairly quickly so i have to shave that as well. im not shaving very often but every couple weeks ish i have to shave just for my sake because it feels gross and doesn't look too hot either. i have a dense covering on my entire chest/belly now. it's not very thick or long, but it's definitely visible. my leg hair has definitely gotten longer and thicker. and it has filled in places i used to not have hair (on the back of my calf, my knee, my upper thighs.) i feel like my arms are still fairly as hairy as they used to be so. the reason im so hairy is because my dad is HAIRY. i asked him and he said he could grow facial hair since he was in 8th grade. so thank god i got those genes. like hells yeah i want to be a bear !!
acne. i don't have bad acne. it's definitely more than i used to have. but i didn't get a lot of acne growing up and im not getting a lot now. that's just a me thing tho. like my two older sisters had pretty bad acne. and me and my younger sister just don't really. i get a few every now and again and that's abt it. i mostly get them around my mouth and on my chin now and im kinda thinking it's related to where i get new hair growth. not sure~
weight/muscles. i feel like my muscles have gotten bigger even tho i haven't really worked out at all? like i definitely am not ripped but i have some tone to my muscles without really even trying. i don't think im much stronger but again i don't work out. my weight has stayed pretty much the same and idk abt if any of my fat has kinda moved around???? like i already had a really hot dad bod and i still do? so like who knows. i mean i look A Lot like my dad's body shape so there's that. ALSO my legs are still looking HOT AS EVER ur welcome
periods. i got a week long, really light one my first month in. light spotting second month. and so far haven't seen anything this month. altho i think im experiencing like cramping and stuff still because my body is like. okay but what iiiiif. we did it annnnyyywaaaaaayyyyyy. and i also feel like 3 months is kinda average for most guys to stop???
emotions. definitely do not cry as much as i used to at things that i would. i do feel like i tend to get a just a little more mad angry than sad angry. this also doesn't mean i haven't cried. legitimately cried to kesha like 2 days ago in the car. but things that i would normally cry at haven't made my cry recently. unless im having a lot of anxiety and i need to cry it out i haven't cried. a lot of times ill feel like im going to cry but there aren't any tears? it's just like. you're sad and could cry but you aren't going to unless you force it. and im like. that's chill okay.
overall dysphoria. im actually having higher dysphoria. only because i have a big chest. and if im not binding out in public i get a lot of stress abt going to the bathroom. i have used men's restrooms since ive started t and usually im okay tho it is a little weird and stressful still (shrug) so im hoping to get top surgery asap to not feel like crap all the time............ whoops.
i also feel like ive needed to eat a little more than usual. like i feel like i get hungry more often than i used to. but idk if that's related.
there's some other stuff that are more personal related that i don't mind sharing but also don't want to share on this forum as per the rules. so sorry abt that stuff guys x3
if you have any questions feel free to ask them here or shoot me a pm if it's a more personal/private question you want to ask!
