Can't stand it at all

I get what your saying but Bio guys don't get thoes that's my point yea they use em but not for the same reasons, I get it though,  I really can't cope with being male and having thoes, Yea maybe temporarily but my thoughts are still there about everything, That's nasty feeling blood come out of you and it's fustrating, I can't really deal, And don't know how much longer I can take

Thats kinda the point, we arent bioguys, we have to make decisions and put things into place so that we can deal with things, sure it sucks, you bet your ass its unfair, but its life, and when youre stuck between and a rock and a hard place, you move that ->-bleeped-<-ing rock, if its too heavy, you ask someone to help you move it.

look into the pill, it'll stop it, problem solved, as others have mentioned theres zero hormonal alternatives, utilise them.

I'm on depo provera, a shot every 3 months and there is no problems. At the most there is a bit of spotting which you don't even need a pad for, you just need to wash your underwear a lot.

And no I haven't noticed any breast growth, I hear it makes you gain weight but I'm in the same size I was before I started depo. You exercise it won't be a problem. Think it's been 3 years now.

Brandon,

Can a mature women comment?

Life sucks.

It is hell for all of us, no one has it easy, no one has a smooth ride, there is nothing no one ever gives us.

It doesn't matter if you are trans or cis, straight or Gay, rich or poor, male or female.

Life sucks.

But you are lucky, luckier than most, you have men that I utterly respect and feel in awe of willing to help you.

You need to listen to them.

Yes your life is tough, yes you struggle but you are on a support site that wants to help you.

You are lucky.

But you have to let the help through.

Your life is tough?

I doubt that you would have survived 10 seconds of some of my past experiences when I was your age.

I had no advice. I had no one who cared.

I had an owner. He sure as Hell didn't care as long as I brought the money in.

I overcame it, you can as well.

I managed to be end up a happy and gorgeous woman; even if I have to say so myself.

You can be as incredible as the other guys are here.

If you listen to them.

Listen to them.

Please

Cindy

I use tampons which are best for me.  I don't want to take any form of BC, don't want any more hormones in me. Pads between your legs keep reminding you that you are bleeding and feel wet all the time.  I looked at those cups and decided quickly I couldn't handle those parts of me to get one in and out again, also it would be so easy to get the contents of the cup on your fingers and hands.  I get cramps the before I start so I know every month when it will happen and I can have a tampon ready to put in.  After that I can forget that I am bleeding, as I only know it is happening when I have to change.  I have a Sam's card and buy the large box of tampons so I only have to buy them every few months.  When I can start T they will be gone forever.

I'm not comfortable with using thoes, I don't want anything going up their that makes me cringe I don't even like the thought, I get cramps to so I know otherwise I forget that's he only reason I remeber, I keep forgetting that I still have to deal with thoes

Brandon, each one has to deal the problem with what works best for
them until they can stop the bleeding altogether.  I told what I do.  You can do what works for you.

I know I was just letting you know, But really I don't know what to do about that problem,  I'll probaly just start working out again to distract me from that, I mean it worked before but sometimes I just get to dysphoric and caught in my feelings that it stops me and makes me want to do nothing

Would it be possible to get your parents to order stuff online for you? There's always drugstore.com.

It depends on what it is, If it's to stop em then no but maybe for other things

I mean just the regular shark week supplies. Think of drugstore.com like a giant Rite Aid/Walgreens online.

What I am gathering is it's not the supplies that bother you. It's the fact that you have to deal with having the damned thing in the first place. I think we've all been in that situation. I know, I know you say it makes you cringe to think about using tampons but if you never have tried one it's worth it. There is no mess, no stains, no wetness, you can play sports, you don't really have to look at it, you can't feel blood leaking out, and none of that god awful smell. It is worth giving a try. Just go small and get plastic ones (the cardboard ones aren't nearly as comfortable).

Also, with birth control you don't go up breast size that is a myth. There are many different types and I think you would do good to talk to your doctor about it before you cancel it out. I work in a medical clinic and get to hear about all different types of med's including bc. There's shots, pills, even patches. There's a shot that you can get every 3 months that someone already mentioned and you hardly get any bleeding at all . Also there are ones with very low hormone doses which can lighten what you have to deal with.
