Day 304 on Testosterone

*LISTEN I DUNNO HOW THIS ENDED UP IN QUEUE AND NOT DRAFTS IM SORRY! LOL*

ANYWAY...NOT TOO MANY CHANGES FROM MONTH 9

So far everything is still very subtle. Bottom growth was the first to show up, I swear it cropped up just within the first two weeks - still getting used to having a foreskin. I didn't experience the pain that a lot of guys say they had as their dicks grew in, but there was kind of what I can best describe as a harsh tingle. Also - you can feel it get hard. That's fucking insane.

Body hair has changed a bit already. The preexisting peach fuzz on my chest and stomach (naturally a fuzzy man pre T) has begun to darken slightly and spread out, which bodes well for my dreams of being a proper bear. I had a happy trail pre T as well and it's distinctly begun to fill in, and the bush is becoming a hedge. I may be imagining it, but my facial fuzz, which usually only holds dye for about two weeks, has looked darker for over a month - shaved the sides but am keeping the shitstache to see if it comes back in dark.

The legends of T cranking up your libido are incredibly true. My poor boyfriend, he's very patient with his new werewolf.

Shark week is still here, but the last one was the least violent I've ever had - only lasted four days and very little pain.

My hands feel a bit rougher, but my work could have also affected that. Boyfriend thinks my facial skin feels different, which makes me lean slightly towards the possibility of it being another T change kicking in.

Various odd muscular aches and pains. Muscles over my ribs feel strained, though this could also be due to my shit sleeping pad during the work week.

I'm thirsty and sweaty as HELL. I empty four Camelbaks at work a day and have given up trying to avoid pissing in the woods. Butterflies land on my arms to drink my sweat...glad somebody's enjoying it.

sorry i just really like T comparison posts

the injection did not hurt like i thought it would. i’m scared of needles and was surprised that i didn’t even feel it, it helped that i was doing it myself, and i couldn’t feel the fluid enter me either

post injection i felt like that muscle was mid excercise in a good way, then went back to normal

i am much more confident, and feel more connected with my body which is a brand new thing for me. i can also make decisions a little easier and things that would make me insecure and have panic attacks now don’t bother me. however every night around 11pm i’ve been having anxiety, but before injection my anxiety was constant so it’s a huge step up.

i did get sore that night, the muscle hurt to walk, touch, and just resting, but bareable and was a kind of reminder that i did it!

the muscle of injection is now a lot harder than the surrounding muscle. like one little spot of man meat. which is bizarre but touching it makes me excited and happy.

mainly placebo and emotional changes but i had the calmest, warmest, happiest gender euphoria after my first injection that lasted for hours instead of moments

internal throat changes, i can feel something changing shape and my throat feels slightly heavier, where i feel like i can talk lower than usual internally but when i speak out loud it’s the same

my body has started to smooth out, not in shape but where i had cellulite on my thighs is smoother, which gives me mixed feeling because eating disorder recovery has me finally accepting and loving cellulite

i’ve wanted to exercise like a lot. and making the choice to move is easier (i have chronic fatigue caused by ehler danlos)

my right arm is transitioning first lmao. literally last night felt a new muscle forming and it ached and was not present on the other arm.

my hair is growing on my legs a little, it looks softer and longer and spots that were bare now have little dark hairs forming

barely any changes in bottom growth, but feeling more *plump* like…. it’s got a tiny bit swollen. as of third day morning i feel like it’s starting to wake up a little

my skin is glowing. partly from happy and partly it’s just beginning to change texture

my surgical knee hurt immediately after injection, but has not hurt since, i’m feeling fewer chronic pains, more pains similar to growing pains

i always had tiny little mustache hairs and this morning i had a couple more but nothing you could see if you weren’t two inches away from a mirror

my cousin said i look and sound the exact same tho

haircuts are so theraputic

oh and i don’t have this looming suicidal feeling anymore

i cannot wait for my next dose :)

I got incredibly hungry

unbelievably sweaty

thirsty as hell

my menstrual cycle stopped

you know how trans guys say you get “gross” and don’t elaborate? listen very closely, kids.

my skin got greasier, especially in the T-zone

I got acne all over my body (not the fun type)

I fart more

I poop every (!) day (!!), on the clock

my insomnia went away almost entirely

my depression became much more manageable (side note - a few months in I was on Prozac for approximately two weeks and felt absolutely braindead, I hated every second of it, idk how much that reaction was related to testosterone)

my voice dropped

my libido went up and so did my love for women

I gain muscle easier

my emotional responses changed, with a lot of sadness turning into complete numbness once it reaches a certain point, and the rest of negative emotions manifesting themselves in anger

my body hair became thicker and darker in very select areas (on the tummy and the genital area), my facial hair got thicker (but not darker, it’s still whiter than the Chick-fil-A line).

my hairline is receding

my hair is starting to curl
