I've been on T gel for 2.5 years and I found out my levels are super low so I wanted to try injections. But how do I even do that like it sounds so daunting?
Do I need to like be trained on how to do it or should I have a consultation?
Or should I just order them and figure it out with the instructions like??
Also side point that's unrelated, on my transition pack it says my levels are 2.27nmol/L and on Google it said that's really low, is that correct? That it's really low?
Anyways as I was saying, how do I switch to injections on gendergp? Should I book a consultation with a doctor or a nurse and for how long? Or is there another way?
I heard injections might help me bcs I might not be absorbing the T gel well
I'm gay 20M and I used to be pretty fat, basically I've halfed my body weight.
I don't have a TONNE of loose skin like you see from those huge weightloss journeys but I do have enough that I'm insecure about it and it's noticeable.
I guess it comes down to the guy but do the majority of gay men like feel any certain way about it? It kinda makes me scared to be intimate sometimes.
I started my apprenticeship exactly 1 month ago and before starting there I did make my boss aware that I use he/him Pronouns and my preferred name is Cole. They are all so chill about it and usually there's no issue at all. But I'm noticing that when some of the guys refer to me they say she/her and most of the time they forget or don't correct themselves. I've never had the confidence to correct people on Pronouns to be honest because I can easily ignore it.
But for some reason it is starting to bug me a little, not anger, just making me feel kinda low I guess like I'm not really one of them.
For context I work in a very male dominated field- construction, and the people I work with as far as I can tell are genuinely not transphobic and are actually just good intended old guys.
But there's also a lesbian the same age as me who sometimes gets it wrong, and then there's a cishet guy my age who NEVER gets it wrong and I don't even know if he realises that I'm trans tbh.
Anyways...I'm already 2 and a half years on T and it's been a very VERY fucking slow second puberty for me, my voice is deep and I would say I definitely don't look like a girl- maybe a very twinky guy or a little boy. But like maybe is there something I can do to look more like a man? Or anything you guys suggest about the pronoun situation. I already have a pronoun pin on my bag which I've never really liked doing but 🤷♂️
I think I passed better when I used to dye my hair brown but I don't rlly wanna dye my hair again cus it got so dry.
I wonder if it's my mannerisms, cus I'm autistic so I always tend to look a bit lost and I sort of- well I don't exactly act like a "normal guy" maybe I act a bit childish idk..
Maybe I should just correct people, but that feels very confrontational... also a pic of how I look is attached, I'm 5'4 💔
(EDIT: Idk if I forgot to mention but everyone at work knows to som degree that I'm trans and don't identify as female, I'm fairly certain my boss may have mentioned my Pronouns to some of the guys before I started- with my permission ofc. And also the lesbian I work with, I outwardly told her I'm trans bcs it felt like the right person to tell, that's why I was a little shocked when she called me "she".
I've just got my first full time job that I love and next year I've decided to travel to South korea, probably Seoul, to celebrate my independence.
The reason I want to go to Seoul is because there are so many things I want to see including museums, shopping, nightclubs/bars and sights. And also because I understand enough korean that I feel confident going there.
I'm generally not bothered by most weather, I know it can be hot as balls in the summer but 🤷♂️
So I wanted to ask when do you think I should go, which month? I originally thought November as its more mild. I just don't want it to be choc-a-block to the brim with tourists, especially American tourists, I know it'll always be busy because its a city duh but like you know what I mean.
So taking weather, tourism etc. Into account, when is best?
So I'm at this ladies house dog sitting while she's on holiday, and I wanna watch a dvd.
But there doesn't seem to be a slot for the disc to go into or maybe the tray is jammed?? But I don't know where the tray even is. There's a button that says open/close and when I press it the screen on the player just switches between reading "open" and "close". I'm sure it is a player bcs it has dvd video and blu Ray written on it...?
I'll attach a pic of it. Can someone help me, I can't stand watching the news...
