Everyone name the events or interactions you had as a trans masc, with other dudes or trans masc people, which gave you gender euphoria or made you happy

I'll go first; I had my first, absolute crispest bro handshake with another dude yesterday, and it sounded over a whole crowd of people. We both got super giddy about it 😂 it gave me such gender euphoria and it makes me giggle a bit

I wanna hear about y'all's favorite moments like that 🩵

fellas

not me making a post going "haha no underboob sweat anymore" literally less than a week ago

well, I am currently almost 5 months on T, and I am sure sweating everywhere else. Bro, it's 16 degrees celcius and it's cloudy, and I biked in a tanktop and my whole body is on fire LMAO

Thought it would be time for me to ask: what do y'all do to help with the overheating? And what to do about sweaty hands (I can't roll a joint in these moist af circumstances 😭)

Anyway, hope you're having a nice day 🩵

That's it. That's the post, honestly. I yell about this to anyone who wants to hear

No underboob sweat, I repeat, no underboob sweat.

the T is making me sweat in plenty of other spaces, but dang did I underestimate the joy of not dragging around these 1kg each sacks of wet meat in the summer, ykwim?

Anyway, have a good summer, broskies, and if you are wearing a binder this summer, remember to give yourself plenty of breaks, or lift ur binder from the underside and stand in front of a fan for a few minutes. Hang em out to dry sometimes, trust 🤙

A few weeks ago I broke out into a panic about my T levels. I felt miserable both physically and mentally and my doctor gaslit me about what I felt and that it could never be related to my T levels (which were below the target value and still are after a second blood test 2 weeks later). I felt so lost as well. Nobody seems to know enough about what my T levels should be. The right professionals aren't available to help me. My doctor doesn't know enough about it either since he's just an in between sort of type of solution...

Today I wanna share that I am right back on track. I talked to my doctor, who apologized to me and took full responsibility about his behavior. I didn't even have to address anything, he just started apologizing immediately, and he fully agreed with me about my T levels. I'm getting my next shot a bit sooner, on Tuesday. It was so unexpected that it doesn't feel real yet. Only 3 days!!!!

And! We managed to find the actual reason my body felt so weird as well and got something to treat that as well. I feel loads better!

I'm noticing I'm excited to focus on my progress again instead of never ending hormone disbalances and misery xd

For a fella with too low T levels, however, I sure am getting hairy everywhere! I didn't know arm hair could change color so quickly, we're only 15 weeks in, dog, I feel so blessed :>

Just a quick lil 'rant' that I had to get off my chest

I hope y'all have a nice day today 🩵

In order to use the flair 'general questions' instead of 'rant' I'm gonna try and keep my menty b as compact as possible

I have my first blood levels. Without putting a whole story in here; my levels are way too low. I know they are too low and I also know the reason they are too low. Everyone knows they are too low, but my doctor insists they aren't and is completely ignoring all the factors that make my levels, in fact, too low. (the reason isn't important rn, some things went chaotically at the start, it's all good.... if my doctor would listen instead of gaslight me, that is)

Anyway, I feel absolutely fucking miserable, and I know the reason (T levels), but my doctor isn't convinced, tells me it must be something else, and is 100% ready to make me feel miserable like this every 8 weeks of my 12 week window because he's fucking lackluster and deserves to stand on a lego

I'm trying to find more info on this so I can convince him with more than just words, because best case scenario, he will listen to me and help me in my search for a reasonable solution and then I set the building on fire. Worst case scenario I set the building on fire before getting my shot because I just can't stand his face anymore and also he's doing this to himself for fucking with my body. (please don't take that too seriously, i had a rough week. There will be no arson. I promise)

I'm already on a waiting list for a better specialized doctor who doesn't suck absolute balls, so technically I have to wait only another 3 months... I only need one (1) more shot from this motherfucker so it doesn't matter anyway actually, but I want to tear him at least 1 new asshole before I release him from my grip like that meme of the cat being pressed against the ground for breaking a pot

If anyone has some interesting, preferably peer reviewed, reads on testosterone levels and its effects? Specifically for trans people, because my guy is NOT thinking about the fact that my body is in fact not magically making enough of it on its own. That would be awesome!

*Somehow people are always confused about my shot window unless I mention 'Nebido'. That's the one I have :> do not be alarmed
