I am post top surgery since october 2012. I have bottom surgery consult with Dr. Crane on July 7th for a phalloplasty and most likely will have the surgery sometime early next year. Facial hair is growing in slow, but I do have quite a lot on my chin and side burns which are very long. It looks pretty scraggly but since I never had hair before I don't want to shave it. It takes about 3 weeks to grow back. I am not a hairy guy. I started my transition late in my life. I turn 50 next month, but I have not had any problems with my transition at all. All my paperwork and birth certificates indicate I am male, and that was all done in 2012 when I started my transition. All my friends and family have been very supportive. I am a retired police officer and I still work around a lot of officers that knew me before transition and though its a bit akward at times, I have not had any problems with them.
