I only lost 3 followers today, and gained 6. Apparently, I have created a trans safe here. Perfect!
If you are still here and still anti-trans, please find the door
Anyhow, for the new folks, Hi. Em, he/they, 41, trans-masc. D&D nerd, critter, vape salesman, overall nerd. 1/2
@realdocv I had a therapist fire me for trauma dumping and being "unwilling" to "move past" my abusive childhood. She also stated, in our final session, that if I did let myself move past it, that she believed I could "recover" from being trans and ace.
@acweyand I bled for 10 months straight. Blood counts low enough that I needed transfusions. Was told it was normal. Switched practices to a female doctor. Found out I had cancer.
@RRR0BYN@BadMedicalTakes I had 2 "physiological" births in hospitals. My 2nd, barely even got into the hospital. With my 3rd, we both nearly died and I ended up having a fully unmedicated C-section. If I were to have another (not possible), I would have a birth with all the interventions.
@CC_at_YCTAC@BadMedicalTakes I think they mean red raspberry leaf. It is sold as an herbal supplement and used for uterine toning during pregnancy and menstrual difficulties.
@ellemarie79 @barcelomidnight@bitchcrafters @fairheartstring @ask_aubry My now EX husband asked me if I could wait until after church to go to the hospital. My first child was born in under 3hrs. This one (my 2nd) was less than an hour. I had not even fully checked in at the hospital. I had M at 8:38am, discharged at 5pm, at church at 7pm.
@BadMedicalTakes I'm a transgender man. Those "we can always tell" folks regularly say things like "you'll never be a real woman" to me, lol. Kinda the point, my dude, but go on.
Sharing this again in hopes I can actually get food tomorrow , since unexpected bills ate up all the money that was donated before I could get groceries ๐ฅบ

4. The belly binder. I can't bind my chest right now and the belly binder pushes my chest up and makes them look larger and more pronounced. I have to wear this thing for several weeks...
More tomorrow. I can't type any more tonight. 5/?
What do I wish I, a trans masc person, knew going into a hysterectomy that no one told me?
I ended up discussing trans health care and just bitching about the hoops I had to jump through in my previous thread. In this one, I will hopefully just give you some insights. 1/?
3. I felt unprepared with how exhausted I would be. I find myself sleeping at random intervals throughout my day. Anything I do, even mundane things, is enough to require at least an hour on the couch. 4/?
