It Was Really Just a Vulva Surgery

February 11, 2024

It’s been 42 days since my last surgery. I decided to go in and have my coochie redone. Things were going okay but after many discussions with my therapist, and a visit or two with my surgeon, I decided is okay enough? And the answer was, no! No okay is not enough, especially when my version of okay involved quite a bit of discomfort that I had decided was good enough. And that was really where the problem was. Why…

I Used to do Things, Now I Dilate

November 21, 2022

I’ve never been great at keeping up with this blog and it has never been my intention to be a daily blogger, but I used to be able to post a bit more than I have lately. I also used to work on a little side project called TransCisTer Radio. Oh and I had started to do some art, remember that? I think I shared some of my art here, but maybe not. I used to do lots of projects…

Educating my Dermatologist on Gender Dysphoria

September 13, 2022

When I first started seeing my therapist I told her that I didn’t have any gender dysphoria. It didn’t take me very long to follow that up with, so by the way, what exactly is gender dysphoria? She explained it simply as a disconnect between one’s birth gender and one’s perceived or mental gender. I again repeated, yeah, no, I don’t have that and don’t think I have ever felt that way. I think a good question that I could…

And So It Begins – Patient Task Email No. 0

April 16, 2022

Two days ago I received the first email from my GCS surgeon’s office regarding things I need to complete for my surgery this summer, um, woo-hoo! There have been many things in this process, so it isn’t as though this really the first thing, it is more like thing number 429 or some such thing, lol. Okay, maybe not that many things have had to be done, but it kind of feels like it sometimes. The email informed me that…

Menstrual Products and My Misunderstood Childhood

December 11, 2021

I used to think I was so weird, but I had absolutely no context whatsoever to explain absolutely anything that I was experiencing. One of the things that I could never really wrap my head around was my fascination with menstrual products. My sister is about two and a half years older than me and while growing up we shared a bathroom. She was always upset because I took so long in the restroom and she could never understand what…

I am Far Less Sad but Not Truly Happy Yet

September 26, 2021

The first picture was 3 months of estrogen, the second is 4 years and 3 months of estrogen. I really like estrogen, hehe!A good friend recently remarked that the closer I am getting to my surgery date, the worse things seem to be for me. For many who have known me for a long time it may very well appear that way though in reality a few different things are going on. First off, I am willing to be more…
