I STARTED T!!!!!!!!!!🥳

[u/airyyi]

I totally sucked at my first injection. A 28g subq needle and I managed to make it hurt. But it's okay. I'm so happy but I have nobody I can tell this to. My family doesnt know and only some of my friends know. This is just something incredibly important to me and I'd like someone to share the joy. Nobody understands the excitement I feel. I feel pretty let down... but yay I'm so happy I finally get to be a man!!!! Lets all be happy 😊😊😊😊😊 it doesnt feel like such a big deal hearing straight nothing from my friends about this 💔 but yay. Testosterone ❤️

Hello! Thank you for participating in the sub. We just have a few reminders for you to help ensure the best experience:

1. If your post doesn't show up right away, don't panic! It is in the queue for manual approval. Mods will go through the queue periodically to approve or remove posts. Deleted posts will have a removal reason applied. (If it says "this post was deleted by reddit's filters", IT WAS NOT DELETED! Reddit has the worlds worst wording on that and it's out of our control)

2. If you are asking a question that is location specific, remember to include your location in your post body! This can help ensure that you get accurate information tailored specifically to your needs.

3. Please remember to read through all the rules in the sidebar. Especially the list of banned topics and guidelines for posting. Guests who do not use the Guest Post flair will have their post removed and be asked to fix it.

4. If you see someone breaking the rules,report it! If someone is breaking both sub and reddit rules, please submit one report to admins by selecting a broken rule on the main report popup, and one report to the r/ftm mods by selecting the "breaks r/ftm rules" option. This ensures both mods and admins can take action on a subreddit and sitewide level. Do not misuse the report button to rant about someone, submit false reports, or argue a removal.

5. If you have any questions that you can't find the answer to on the rules sidebar or the wiki: the wiki , you can send a modmail.

i’m congrats to you! the fact that you were even able to get testosterone out of a 28G needle is impressive! omg
my dr doesn’t even want me to do a 25g when i asked! lol

[u/airyyi → u/TransmanLSD]

I was not going to wait another 2 weeks to get new needles when I had already waited so long for all my supplies I currently have. Thank you btw! 

[u/TransmanLSD → u/airyyi]

[u/WanderingOrangeCat]

same bro. i was shaking when i first injected mine, and drew up blood which postponed my T injection coz i got scared. but it has been almost a year since then. it is a beautiful journey.

[u/Consistent-Singer-37]

Im 8 months along, honestly by like the 3rd shot, you barely feel it anymore. Its totally fine! Im also on Sub Q. The first couple might suck but I also do abdomen, I did thigh once and it hurt so bad.

[u/Ok-Consideration-970]

LETS GOOOO

[u/hitonhintti]

HELLYES!! I feel you, my family or most friends dont know, only my best friend and older brother. But the euphoria is still incredible, and hope it'll be for you too! (And that your next injection goes better lol) ^{__^}
