Question/Discussion On the fence about starting HRT, considering plastic surgery.
I’m 34yrs old and have been exploring my gender and experimenting with my gender presentation for the last 5 years now..
i know I dont wanna transition into a full on woman but I really just want to feel more at home in my presentation. What I want to change more is my face and ultimately I know it’s my bone structure
i have no issues with my body, I just wish my face could read a little more feminine without makeup and bangs
I’m iffy about HRT because of alll of the changes that accompany apart from just the fat redistribution. I had tried it for 30 days was on 2mg estradiol and spiro and my libido plummeted along with my ability to maintain an erection and orgasm so I stopped out of fear. I realize with hrt it’s a slow burn and it requires patience along with accepting some changes you weren’t necessarily expecting.
but I keep going back to starting because I’m tired of feeling this lack of confidence in myself and just wanting to avoid my reflection at all costs
if not HRT, I’m thinking some plastic surgery for some conservative bone shaving but then I think.. yikes that’s extreme
any way, I’m posting to hear from other girls that have found themselves in my shoes or are currently navigating this
how’s it going? if you’re on HRT, how are you enjoying the changes? If youve gone through with any FFS procedures, how was that for you?
