Regrowing receding hairline without minoxidil, possible?

Regrowing receding hairline without minoxidil, possible?

I was 2 years on testosterone injections, now I'm officially 2 weeks off, so I can't expect much right now.

As u can see my hairline receded a bit, luckily I started taking finsteride in time so the damage isn't that severe I think.

Did your hairline regrow on its own? Did your hair get fuller again once estrogen took over your body?

I tried applying topical minoxidl (5%) on my hairline with a derma stamp (1mm) but it caused me some horrible headaches.

Pls help me pick (or mix) henna to get this beautiful copper result

The following pictures are my natural, virgin hair color.

I'm very unsure if my hair is dark brown, middle brown or something in-between.

I'm probably planning to buy henna from Khadi but I'm also open to other sources. I live in Germany.

Starting to feel like this (detrans) character from the game "Remothered"

For anyone who doesn't know, "his" name is Dr. Richard Felton, a biological woman (named Jennifer prior) and the main antagonist who was forced to live as a man and marry a woman by "his" sexist father who wanted to have a son.

It's a rather cheap horror game on Steam, very heartbreaking story.

Now I wasn't forced to live as a man by my parents in any way.

But I can't help but relate to this person when it comes to things like permanent changes from hormones, social pressure and gender dysphoria.

Anyone else know this game?

Asian websites who sell natural colored lenses with power??

T50 eyes here🫠 -0.50 right and -2.25 left

The contact lenses made in Asia seem to be the only ones who are specialized in making them able to cover the darkest eyes possible while looking natural.

Unfortunately I had very bad luck here in Europe, many are made for light eyes and if I find something that covers great, it looks very unnatural.

Then also comes the fact that I need them to be with power.

Do u guys know any popular websites who sell to Europe?? :/

Take your time, you'll arrive there eventually

First of all, what has happened has already happened. There is no point in dwelling on past decisions or constantly replaying them in your mind.

Thoughts such as, "If only I had waited a little longer," or "If only I had listened to my parents," cannot change the past. While those feelings are understandable, remaining focused on them only makes it harder to move forward.

Just as transition is typically a gradual process, detransition is as well. There is no need to rush.

Many do the mistake and try to change as much as possible in one go. Yeah, I did that too. Putting on a wig, applying makeup and then making a surprised Pikachu face of why I look like a trans woman lol.

Continue living your life, pursue your interests, focus on making money for the reconstructions, maintain your hobbies while going slowly towards detransition. You will reach the finish line at one point. Some things for the detransition can get expensive, yeah. At the same time, unexpected expenses are a part of many people's lives. Some people spend thousands on braces, jaw surgery, fertility treatments, reconstructive surgery after an accident, or medical care for a chronic condition. Others have to replace a car, repair a roof, or pay for years of physical therapy after an injury. Very few people make it through life without facing major financial setbacks at some point.

You are not undesirable, and you are not "running out of time." Life does not end at a certain age. (My own mother met the love of her life and remarried at 49 btw.)

Having permanent characteristics associated with the opposite sex does not make someone unattractive. Masculine and feminine traits are both beautiful, and androgynous appearances are beautiful as well. Your appearance does not determine your worth or your ability to live a fulfilling life.

There are far worse things than being a bearded woman or a man with boobs.

Unable to beat outlast 2 insane run because of...jumping

Would u believe me if I said I have mastered everything else?

Marta, Nick and Laird? Easy. I know all the tricks already. I don't even need that stupid camera anymore, I know all the paths.

But these jumps? I fail at least one of them every fucking time. My hands already begin to shake every time I approach these spots.

There was a time out of my 50 attempts where I actually succeeded doing both of these jumps. Guess what happened then, I GOT SOFT LOCKED ON THE FUCKING RAFT.

I'm already considering finding a way to glitch through the maps or give up entirely.

Scared of ovarian failure after hysterectomy while being on T

I'm 21 years old. I am 2 years on T and had a hysterectomy 7 months ago.

One of the few reasons I'm afraid of canceling my next T shot is due to the fear of my ovaries not working the same ever again like they did before or stopping to work entirely. In that case even the testosterone is protecting me right now. Aside from the unwanted body hair, acne and receding hairline my body feels great(?).

I know that a hysterectomy can send ovaries into shock. 30% of an ovary's blood supply also comes from the uterine artery. Without an uterus the chance of them failing early increases up to 25% or something. Even more if you're age 40 and above.

I ruined my body and all these fears make me think that there is no turning back for me anymore. That since I wanted to be a male I now have to accept my punishment and live as one till I die.

Should I apply minoxidil here or wait? (I'm on finasteride)

Context. I'm 21, a female detransitioner (pls don't judge I know I fucked up).

I was on testosterone for 2 years which caused male pattern baldness.

My hairloss and the receding hairline started one year ago and I decided to take finsteride (1mg) since then. My hair loss stopped but it still continues to thin slowly (even my hair dresser mentiones it every month).

I'm now stopping testosterone and plan to use Minoxidil on my slightly receding hairline.

But now I'm unsure if I should use it on the rest of my scalp too or wait and hope the estrogen will make my hair thicker again.

Does my scalp look okay?? Or is that a balding spot already, I can't tell.

I already experienced the shedding phase on finasteride and I really don't want this to happen again. 😭

Do men comment on your bottom growth?

So I decided to shave my private area to see how much damage testosterone has done to me. I'm currently 2 years on T, next shot would be on August 3rd.

I'm still hesitating about if it's too late or not.

My clitoris is very big. Holding my labia back it kinda looks like a micro penis.

Bisexual men on grindr loved it.

But what would straight men say to it?

Women with bottom growth here, did u ever experience rejection regarding it?

Any detrans spaces in Germany?

Whenever it's news, statistics etc., u can't find anything regarding detransition in Germany.

Zero.

If I Google it, all is outside Europe.

I really like to find at least one detransitioner from Germany I can talk to, maybe even meet up with.

I feel alone in this.
