Hey!
So I decided to set up this blog for 2 reason; firstly to document my transition and secondly to inform others who may be in the same situation as me. Anyway, I am a female to male transsexual and I am right at the beginning of my transition. I am not yet on hormones and haven't had any surgery BUT with any luck that will be changing very soon. I decided to go down the private route for treatment rather than the NHS as I have waited long enough for my life to begin! I am seeing Dr Curtis in London and he is really great. I am going to my second appointment in a couple of weeks and hopefully he will start to prescribe my testosterone then. I have had all my blood tests done and I am just waiting on one last result to come back... estrogen... the bane of my life!!
I realise I should tell you a little about coming out and my life in general. So I will. I came out just over a year ago to my family. But about 5 years ago to friends. I was very well accepted by all my friends as they seemed to understand that I am mentally a male, my body just did not agree! I have been binding since I was 15, so that's 6 years. Before I knew what transsexualism was I used cling film and bandages to bind my chest. After some research I found out some more and bought my first binder, what a relief that was. I'm so glad to have my binders now!! I pass as a young male 100% of the time. People assume I am 14-16 years old. They always look slightly shocked when I say I am 21. Bring on the beard I say!
I plan on getting my top surgery done with Dai Davies ASAP so hopefully in January at some point if I am lucky, we will see how it goes!
