Topic: I feel deeply troubled.

La Reina Catalina !j0siCathyI started this discussion 1 year ago #121,148

I think I may have been re-masculinizing over the course of a few months. I noticed I’ve been getting misgendered more frequently than I used to. A couple of years prior I rarely ever got called ‘sir’ and while there are still those who naturally address me as ‘ma’am,’ this begs the question if somehow I started to re-masculinize.

I don’t understand how though. I am currently taking spironolactone and finasteride daily. I keep up with my estrogen injections every 14 days. I even dedicated a specific day (Wednesday) for this and I acknowledge that due to a new found fear of needles, which suddenly came out of nowhere, I do delay it to Sunday. I still get myself to do it on Sunday though.

My testosterone is well-suppressed with my last tested level being 18, with free T being 1.9, and my last estrogen level being 176.0 as of 24 September 2024. There was only one change to my dose in estrogen over the course of a year from 1 mL to 1/2 mL. I’m not sure if this was enough but I have started to noticed slight differences in my appearance whenever I look in the mirror. I’m just trying to figure out if it’s just me tripping over nothing or if I have really re-masculinized.

The thing that bothers me is the decision from my doctor came because he noticed that my liver was producing extra enzymes. A side effect that I’ve read could likely be attributed to spironolactone. Interestingly enough, outside of the United States, there exists an alternative medication that doesn’t pose such risks. Unfortunately, said medication is illegal in the U.S. regardless of its variety of other medical usages.

My doctor prescribed me another medication to help with my liver enzymes and fatty liver in order to work alongside the spironolactone. The amount of pills I have to swallow on a daily basis makes things overwhelming, but they tend to make it easy for me. There are times when I suspect medical transitioning is intentionally being sabotaged to make it riskier as a way to discourage people from engaging with it.

I just wish I knew why suddenly I’m getting misgendered more frequently.

Fortunately, I haven’t had to do much. Basically avoid heavier or baggy clothing since that increases the risks of getting misgendered for me. More form fitting clothing seems to indicate in people’s minds that I’m female. But something must have changed because I noticed that I get misgendered even with this.

It could be something simple like you need to use an spf moisturizer, or that your hair looks weird or unkempt

Its not necessarily an issue with your meds

What is the illegal medication?

Honestly when you consider what they're trying to accomplish, it's amazing it works as well as it does.

That’s what I’m thinking too. Fortunately, a friend at my workplace, and someone who I consider a sister, sort of helps me when it comes to skincare. Though she thinks I look like a little girl despite my height, but she doesn’t think this in a demeaning way.

I think I might have found a reason for the misgendering. I may have acquired a bit of muscle mass due to my job, which requires me to sometimes lift heavy objects. Thinking about how some muscular (cis) women get misgendered, intentionally or as a joke, it makes me wonder if a similar thing might be happening here. My upper arms both look and feel larger. The same for my upper legs too. Though given how my testosterone is suppressed, I can’t imagine I’d get much bigger.

Many doctors don't know much about transitioning and don't care to know. They also don't want any heat for fuckups

So they write prescriptions for very low doses of hrt, that do nearly nearly nothing

That actually sounds good. I really should get back into drinking teas. I think it's because I work a job that sometimes requires me to lift a lot of shit and I always get stuck doing that. I'm not sure since I'm weak compared to the other workers there, and yes, including the cis girls.

I completely forgot the name of the medication. I know it exists since it was something I found a long time ago while I was still researching gender reassignment. I’ve been searching for the name ever since, but I do know it’s a drug that is used mainly in Europe, but banned entirely in the United States.

You act like I’m stupid enough to take biblical scripture as anything more than parables to live by. I don’t subscribe to biblical literalism like you do. I reflect on scripture when I want to learn more about Christ and his teachings. American Christianity has become an apostasy. Nobody in this country ever really does anything Christ said to do and they’d rather be money changers. I greatly admire and respect the word of Christ. I only wish those who claim they do actually do.

Do you tend towards Cannibalism?
I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you. (John 6.53)

If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away” is a verse from the Bible, Matthew 5:29:

"Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back" Luke 6:30

I suggested you look at the Benedictine Monks instead of becoming a Nun. Very close to you and they excel at making Ceramics. You could learn to make Dildo's for the Nuns.

I have long given up trying to understand the purpose of your posts. You have a long history of posting anti-religious shit that it raises the question as to why you don't just come out an atheist. I don't subscribe to biblical literalism, this has only done more harm than good over the centuries. These verses have a metaphorical meaning, but I just do not want to look up the full chapters at the moment for context.

business idea: Fake holy bibles. From the exterior, it has every appearance and feel of a holy bible. But open a few dozen pages in, and a fine quality dildo is revealed within hole-cut pages. You can also buy a version that looks like it was made for a convent 250 years ago.

Religions have some terrific holidays. Also on many business trips I would attend Sunday's at a church service - Most often at Catholic Churches. Early years as a teen at some terrific revival events because of the music.
