FTM Transgender: Things They Don't Tell You About Testosterone

Thanks for making this! I’m a trans boy (age 13) and even though I can’t start testosterone now I plan to in the future and this answered alot of my questions💙🩷🤍🏳‍⚧

I'm Ftm and haven't started T yet, but the hairloss has always been a worry, not exactly because I was worried about going bald but because I was worried about it being MY decision to do it, and if I do go bald I worry I'd blame myself. But funnily enough, despite still being a teenager I'm actually already balding and getting thinner hair naturally. Normally this would be an unfortunate situation and if I weren't trans it would likely make me really insecure, but I'm actually a little relieved cause it means no matter if I take T or not I'd likely be balding more in my 20's anyway and I don't see it as being 'my fault' anymore. So the choice now isn't be balding vs have full hair, it's be balding as a woman or be balding as a man, and the choice I want to make is a lot more obvious here.

Thank you for going in detail about this information! It will help bring more awareness to others who are thinking about medically transitioning and the side effects.

Dude i wanna talk can i have ur insta id,well m a man n i want to know d best test booster for myself,i have issues regarding BEARD 'IT JUST NOT GROWING ' ,i look like a kid n my life is.........dude i really wanna know things from u ,m an india👍 so if it pleases dude plz talk to be ,as i said we can talk on insta coz i have few serious questions

i’m starting T in 11 days! i’m excited and also sort of nervous. i’m going on injections with a decently high dose to start so i should get effects fast

Im 3 months on t and my legs are SO PAINFUL

You are a very handsome transman. You seem like a very nice person.

I'm a cis female but I have a lot of hair on...every place on my body too dun worry xD

the video was very helpful i have been think about going on it but thank u

I’m ftm and I’ve been on testosterone for over 2 years and these things are so true. I’m still getting used to the odor changes and hair EVERYWHERE. 😂

Welcome to manhood, just wait until you wake up in the middle of the night and your underwear is full of jizz from having a wet dream.

What about vaginal atrophy? This can lead to sepsis and death. This is the result of a lack of estrogen. Choose carefully when to have a hysterectomy.

Idk if jammi or any of you know but if you're afraid to lose your hair, you can tell whoever is prescribing you testosterone and they can give you something to prevent it. Hope yall have a great day and take care. 🖤

This comment section is so comforting.

🤮

Jaimie is it weird that sometimes when I watch your videos I feel a sense of dysphoria? I’m a trans man that hasn’t transitioned yet but am planning on doing it soon.

I've been on T for about 3 years now, and I think it's so weird that I'm still growing hair in New Places.
Also i think the results vary from person to person. Cause I have some facial hair, but I look like every other scrappy 20yr old who is barely growing a mustache😅
So it's great.
But the monthly event went away and stayed away with no reminders for me. No cramps, no nothing so plus for me.
Also, just a rumor I've heard after top surgery.. you can feel the cold things you drink in your nips.. can anyone confirm this?? Cause I feel like that is weird and a bit hard to adjust to.
Good luck everyone!! Have a good day

So as a hetero, "cis" guy, being told that I don't cry much because society and the patriarchy has forced my not to be emotional, is simply not true? I cry maybe once a year, if that, but it's simply just because that's how I am. My mother even told me that I hardly ever cried as an infant. I can't tell you how many debates/arguments I've had with feminists about how men's proclivity not to cry, where women usually would, is an actual biological reality of the nature between the sexes. Glad to see that I wasn't crazy.

I’m really young still and doing research on T. This really helps. Thanks :D

I'm Intersex-t-M, and actually starting T today. Very excited about it! I have a maybe unusual perspective on this, since my intersex condition means that my body has naturally produced both high levels of androgens AND female hormones like estrogen and estradiol (in varying levels) throughout my life. So I got to go through a fun male-and-female puberty (EG: I already had the hair in weird places, low voice, beard, and also had breasts, but had to go onto estrogen supplementation to trigger menarche), and now in my late 30's I'm hitting (female) perimenopause and also going onto T at the same time (my natural T levels were dropping off, since it was being produced by my ovaries, which are winding down as I go into the perimenopause). So life could get fun here for a while!

I'm thankful that I'm a female right now at least and I'm not excited to have to shave my bum or anywhere else

I really need to know the effect inside the body and how can i balance up my organ healing while transitioning?

That’s why I don’t wanna go on T,,, my hair is already really thin and idk what I’ll do if my hair falls out 😭

I’m still kind of questioning but I think I might be trans and luckily I already have a bunch of sort of masculine features (may have pcos) and these videos are super helpful!

I know this video is mega old but I'd love to see a video about the long-term risks/care of T use because I've been on T for 2 years now and I'm kind of concerned, long-term, about maybe needing to get a hysto or if my access to T might be cut off/etc etc etc.

Spots? Like freckles or?? What do you mean on number 4?

i just got my prescription for T today so im rewatching every transition video for the thousandth time. man i cant wait to start in the next few days :)

Testorine in high levels blunts your emotions that's why women are so emotional

Male pattern baldness stops in men when you're bald

1. Deep voice for good. 2. Increase risk of heart disease. 3. Facial hair can still grow even if you come off T. 4. Male pattern baldness. 5. Increased sweat

Men's high testosterone levels mean many men get heart disease and probably leads to earlier deaths than women by at least five years

A NEWS HEADLINE FROM THE FUTURE**: 'Tens of thousands of children sue their parents, their teachers and the government in an unprecedented **class action lawsuit for the mass-suffering currently being felt by them due to steering and guiding them to have unnecessary medical 'treatments', operations and procedures!' ***REMEMBER FOLKS, YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST!!* >>STAY TUNED!!<<

Isn't that true getting T decreases your lifespan and can cause early death or serious complications like cancer, HIV, cardio vuscular disease most likely??? Please answer me and tell me if u guys have seen 60 70 yrs old trans and have talked to one? Or know old population???

I'm transmasculine nonbinary. I want a lower voice and all the things but I do not want a beard/any facial hair nor do I want body hair.

Is T the only option?

🤮🤮

Phantom cramps are due to you still producing prostaglandin. Its the hormones for the cramps and fastpoop™ . You can get cramps but nothing will come out since the inner lining that sheds needs a regular cycle of oestrogen/progesterone to grow beforehand. And T disrupts that cycle.

That’s just your genes to. Family epigenetic and the amount of Androgen receptors. Women with PCOS have similar symptoms. One thing you should ask your doctors about is instead of pumping you up with testosterone in large amounts right off the bat is to gradually increase dose to age appropriate levels over time. A 19 year old has no business having levels equivalent to 35 year old. And measure esteroidial estrogen to same age as you actually are for male levels rather then blockers.

When I hear ppl on T talk, sometimes I wonder if I'm already high in my T levels naturally.

Naturally my whole life iv naturally produced the shit it sucks are body’s fail faster in the long run anyways woman live longer

Agree with alot of this and for hair on hair i dont ever want to but still kept thining and losing it.

You are handsome and have got great eyes! Oh and also thanks for the video ;)

Wait I know I’m like 6 years too late, but if you’re 18 do you need parental consent to take T?

testosterone does not make you smell worse, your dieet does.

hi, im just wonding how and where did you get your testosterone?

You will never be a man. That piece of fleash that you have down there is not and will never be a penis. Kkkk you will regret it. I fell so sorry for you miss.

You're so lucky to be a man.

So much mental health problems in the comment section...

Self mutilation is not ok ffs

i rather have a monthly cycle than a 3-day cycle haha.
