A community for transfeminine people and experiences.

This is a supportive community for all transfeminine or questioning people. Anyone is welcome to participate in this community but disrupting the safety of this space for trans feminine people is unacceptable and will result in moderator action.

Debate surrounding transgender rights or acceptance will result in an immediate ban.

Posters may express that they are looking for responses and support from groups with certain experiences (eg. trans people, trans people with supportive parents, trans parents.). Please respect those requests and be mindful that your experience may differ from others here.

To make such a request, at the start of the body of your post, not in the title, the first line should look like the this: [Requesting Engagement from _________]

NSFW just in case.

I started estrogen and anti-androgen about 6 years ago, and it's worked well. Changes have been slow since I take a low dose to prevent overdosing since I don't get any blood tests on account of not doing it officially, since I was denied on account of refusing to dress in drag for my disgusting doctor (he saw me as a man), who denied me on account of not proving I'm really a woman. Though at this point I'm pretty far along and mostly pass, if not for my voice (I still sound like a man 😭). Even though it's largely gone well, I would've really preferred to do it officially. Apparently it's not an option though for me. Anyone else have any experiences with DIY they'd like to share?

I'm mostly okay now, but I wish my voice was more fem. It's very deep and that sucks. I know I'll need voice surgery, voice training hasn't helped ☹️
