Hi all! This is less of an introduction and more of an "I'm back!" I used to frequent this board around 2 years ago, but found that most of the FTM members were in similar situations to my own—young, pre- most things, and just overall inexperienced. Since I was often left with more questions than answers, I found a different community that was more right for me at the time. But now that I'm (hopefully) post-transition, I've come to offer this community what it didn't seem to have for me, in the hopes of spreading better information out there for new/young transitioners.
I guess as just a catch-up, since I last logged on I've had my hysto about a year ago, and, just 6 weeks ago, I finally had phalloplasty and have steadily been recovering since. I'm at a point with my transition now where everything from here on out is hopefully just maintenance and the like, to where I can gently coast away from how transition-oriented my life has been the last 3 years—continuing with T (super close to my 3-year anniversary!), engaging with the community (and giving back more than I receive, at this point in my transition), etc. Oh, and I grew a beard, and went bald! haha
I'm happy to be back, and look forward to getting to know the community as it's changed since I left! I'll be curious to see if I recognize any usernames from way back then.
