Thanks for the recommendations. Pain is pretty minor right now, changing out the gauze from time to time, legs elevated.

Snoozing on an easier to clean reclining chair in case of seepage, and got a bundled blanket discouraging a persistent feline from lap time for awhile.

Welcome to the forums, glad to see you here.

I'm actually one of the first people to go through the WPATH SOCv8 process to get an orchiectomy and scrotectomy, so I'm quite familiar with the process...

One of the first things I'd do is go to the WPATH website and download a copy of the SOCv8 ...

I told the nurse practitioner that I wanted to stop TRT and start low dose HRT. She told me to stop my testosterone injections and that I had ...

The dose I'm on is what my TG doc is recommending for me , not sure what might be ...

Interesting question, I'm not certain what the best answer is...

According to some stuff I've seen on the historical eunuchs ...

"Many eunuch-identified or hormone-free individuals report improvements in mental clarity, emotional stability, and even relief from hormone-triggered conditions". Can you please explain in greater detail?
Absolutely — and I’m really glad you asked for a deeper dive. The experiences of eunuch ...

I see my primary care doctor in a few days. She specializes in gender affirming care and she manages my TRT. I've stopped TRT a week ago and I'm going to discuss alternatives and request a Dexa bone density test. My insurance thankfully cover it and the copay isn't too bad. There were two versions ...
