From the first week on T, I occasionally would find myself suddenly dropping to the floor because of overwhelming growing pains from my dick. So it was just me rolling back and forth, curled up for a minute or so repeating "It's gonna be worth it, It's soo worth it". It got less frequent pretty quickly, and eventually stopped happening completely.
It was totally worth it.

It is too cold in the room where I store and take my T. (not for storage for the T, I think it's still in range, but for my comfort it's definitely too cold)

This is not an experience I enjoy. Injecting a cold substance into my body is a weird feeling that I don't like.

No bleeding today though! That means no bandaid. I finally had to give up on putting on cute/fun bandaids no matter what. I have too much belly hair now lol

Did the thing where I injected testosterone into the fatty layer just beneath the skin on my belly.
I've been having a tough time getting it not to hurt lately. Looking forward to figuring out the cause and stopping that from happening.
Can verify this time it wasn't that I still had alcohol that hadn't dried.

Oh well, have topped up my levels of boy juice and slapped on a bandaid that's *out of this world* (space themed lol). So I'm happy.

well, it's my 11 month hrt-iversary!

Still loving that sweet sweet boy juice

I discovered an acquaintance started transitioning about the same time and already has a full chin of facial hair. I am *envious.* Technically I do too but it's all so pale that it's not really visible. Contemplating some Just for Men.

I'm growing a thicket of shoulder hair and succumbing to male pattern baldness. Figures. 😅

Got a new shaving brush and stand for it a few weeks ago. (I'd been using leftover cans Barbasol from a pie throwing class for ..the entirety of my adventures with #safetyRazors up until now)

Slapping foam onto my face with this thing and shaving my sad excuse for a beard is a great #MasculineJoy moment :) I used a mug I got when I was in Germany to foam up the suds and it was a lot of fun!

Aaaaand it means that my mask seals properly when I have to go to the store!

edit to add #tDiary and #testosteroneDiary tags as I suddenly remember that if I wasn't on it, I wouldn't have grown the facial hair I have lol.

I did my T shot yesterday, I just wasn't here enough to share it!
I don't know if I rushed it and did it while the alcohol was still wet on my skin or what but it stung quite a bit :(
But, a cute space bandage was applied, and I'm happy!

There's nothing quite like commiserating with your cis younger brother over impending (and beginning) hair loss.

There's also nothing quite like realizing that the men in one particular line of your family *don't* lose their hair, and that yours is much more like that line's than your brother's already thinning hair is.

lol

I happened to be talking this morning to a couple other people taking testosterone, about the effects it was having on our chests specifically, and when someone said "I think it's made the skin thicker," it was all I could do not to say "some of my internet pals have decided my name could be Thickernippleskin! 😆

(Is it even fair to tag this as #tDiary)

Stabbed myself again!

Today went really well, practically didn't hurt at all, and I probably didn't even need this bandaid with planets on it.. but it's a bandaid with *space* on it.. so I used it anyway!
