Since the hairyness of T began…
Pulling bandages off pretty much any part of my body has become a lot more painful.
I’m a hairy mofo.
the-dino-atticus asked: Hey Cam, I'm Jac. I saw your post about joint pain after T. I have been on T for about 9 months and I get terrible joint pain, esp. the hips and knees. I don't know if it is from the T, or weight gain, or just me being old.
Hey Jac, thanks for your response. I’ve been on T for about 6 months and I get pain in those places too. I’m also slightly overweight and “old” lol so I don’t really know what’s causing it either heh. But I did notice it more after I began T. I’m wondering if maybe it’s because you’re growing more connective tissue around those areas? I’ve heard of guys getting thicker knuckles and stuff…

Joint soreness
Have any other trans guys out there experienced soreness of joints and muscles surrounding them after starting testosterone?

Voice changes
So, this doesn’t happen for every transguy (I have heard of it with only two other transguys I know), but for me, when my voice is about to drop, I get a terrible sore throat. And it’s a very specific kind of sore, different from the kind you get when you’re sick.
Anyway, the last two weeks or so, I had that sore throat. But there was no change in my voice yet, that I could detect. But tonight, I was ordering food at Chipotle, and it’s always really noisy in there, so I spoke up, and I was like WHOA that’s my voice. Before, you could tell my voice was lower than pre-T, and I could makemy voice go low, but it didn’t really have any um…I guess…resonance? I think that’s the right word. Anyway, IT’S COOL BEANS.

Got my gender change letter.
Sooo now I have to actually do something with it. Nervous.
Oh hey, 5 months on T
I don’t know if every week I forget that my shot hurts, or it’s starting to hurt more. Either way, I’m not a fan.
Also, I’ve noticed that the day before my shot, I’m somewhat of an emotional wreck.
More complaints about acne. I can’t find a skincare routine that will reduce the oil my skin produces, AND keeps me relatively clear of zits. It seems to be one or the other, not both. Does anyone have any advice? I am also wondering about facial moisturizer. When I’m going to be out and about, I moisturize with an SPF 15 lotion by Aveeno, but my face is practically dripping oil by the end of the day.
Aaaaaand then there’s my sex drive. It’s insanely fucking high. I feel like a slave to it. Like I’m not a person anymore. Just a cock with legs.
