Congrats Sam!!
Has anyone tried the T Cream? I know it takes longer but I'm interested to know what people thought about it. Thanks OB |
OB i never tried it, but they say it takes forever to soak into your skin.
Good luck |
I'm not transitioning but good luck to those who are...:byebye:

Brother O, I had some good effects with the T cream, it gave me more energy, and the chin hairs grew a bit. I'm a pluckin fool anyway but it did make some more pop up. I'm off it until I get my blood work done, my Doc is checking on my hormone levels, He said I had low T the last time he looked. The T cream is homeopathic and not regulated under the FDA, so the contents of how much organic T one gets is up for grabs, but it also did help the libido. Your mileage may vary as with all things. |
Organic,
Corky has already given you some good advise on the cream. I just want to add that if you use it you need to be careful and make sure it has absorbed completely into your skin, before hugging on Gemme, otherwise it can get on her skin and she will absorb it. Can't have Gemme growing goatees and such! Lol! P.S.This is especially important for women who are pregnant. Quote:

I am now on a higher dose (twice as high as before) of the daily Androgel. My doctor finally increased it. I hope something dramatic starts to happen soon, cause it has been since May that I have been on T and not much to show for it at all. :(
|
it'll take a little time Drew, but I'm sure things will start happening soon. I've been on the injections now for about 1 1/2 months, and I'm noticing some changes ~ mostly chin hair. I've always had a fair amount of chin hair but it was never dark always fairly light but I knew it was there, and now not only is it longer and more noticeable but its darker in some areas. I get My third injection this morning and will be hoping for more changes in the future!

What the creme mainly did for me was it provided me a safe slow platform to see how my body would adjust. Maybe it can be the same for you. I know there are concerns you and your drs have about the T and maybe this is just the pathway to the changes you desire. |

One of the things I did/do and really don't know if it makes a difference is i would rub a tad of T in the areas I'd like hair to produce... for example when i've done my shot the little left around the syringe I rub on my upper hands ...I do have hand hair coming in. Now whether or not this is occuring because of this I don't know. Likewise when I was on the creme like I said my inner thighs are extremely hairy. I really never have rubbed any on my face because i'm pretty neutral on facial hair. Occasionally i will do my sideburns though .. cause I would like those. The point is I don't think facial hair is what my body is thrilled to produce no matter of what my dosage .. now nose hair ... uncontrollable eyebrows yes, and god i'm still hoping my dads ear hair stays away. However even with the creme and still today on the shots my voice seems to drop ... I have a pretty low man's voice trans or no trans Also look to other people to access the changes in you. I remember immediately after I started the creme and I was on a dose just to get my levels up to the normal levels for females there were changes and people already had a hard time recognizing me. Even today I have to look at photos of myself to see how much i really have changed. It is harder for me to see the changes others can easily see |

I see ftm's and cismen that are hippy and have higher voices ... so just be aware there are no promised to what T will do for a given person irregardless of the dosage |

Ive always had shoulders larger than my hips, not much hips or ass, and relatively hairless arms and legs. After being on T since late 2006, (first the patches for a 7 mos, then shots), my voice went from a 2nd tenor before T to a bass after. I still have very little arm, leg, belly or chest hair... the facial hair is not worth mentioning, but at least i have no receding hairline...whew... My ass and hips are even smaller, my shoulders larger in proportion to them, and whatever little i had in my ass is now in my belly. I've lost 110 # in the past two years...not sure how, it just happened, so unfortunately, due to my chest NOT reducing except in inches, I am now read even more as a "WTF is that" than before. Which is usually fine...until I try to find a public restroom! LOL peace Wolf I'm also on a lower dose of T than what they usually give guys who are transitioning, so that might make a difference. |
Much of how you're going to look, post transition, depends on your heredity. I was adopted when I was 3 months old and my adoption went through the state of Florida in the early 1960's, so there's really no way for me to find my birth parents. Florida's adoptions were "closed" back then and my birth mother never left word or her permission for my sister and I to find her at a later time, when we came of age. There's always been a big hole in my heart where this is concerned and I have often wondered what my birth father must have looked like.
Transitioning has given me a bit of a window, or a "peek" into that missing side of my bloodline. I now look in the mirror and I can almost see my birth father. I have more than ample body hair and I've been able to grow a good crop of facial hair, thanks to T. My voice has dropped well into the lower octaves and my body shape has, well, changed. All that was "in the trunk" is now around the waist and I fight that all the time. I'm kinda thinking that my birth father must have looked a hella like a Scandinavian Viking, because my (adopted) mother is full Swedish and I look just like her side of the family!! All big, strapping Swedes.....with some German thrown in from my Uncle Bud's marriage to my German blooded Aunt Nadine. My cousin David and I look like we could have been twins, and he and I have always been very close, having grown up together and only a year apart in age. Oh, and he's nearly fully bald now....while I am "thinning" on top and definitely have the receding hair line. :| I do have to say that, for me, transitioning put more than just a few pieces of "me" together. It's been a time of revelation, really, on many levels. It's definitely made a happier me. :winky: My best wishes go out to all the Brothers here, for a wonderful holiday season, full of love, joy and the best life has to offer. :thumbsup:(f) Happy Holidays!!! ~Theo~ :bouquet: |
My voice is finally starting to change.
|
The wheels are in motion. I contacted a therapist today so that I can get started on that. I'm kind of nervous and excited all at the same time.
