Getting a Hysto and stopping T?

[Cody Jensen]

I was just wondering, if you stop T, you get your period again, right? SO what if you get a hysto then it would be impossible for you to get your period ever again, and all the male characteristics (hair, growth downstairs, deep voice, muscle bulk) will still stay if you stop T. So you would technically be like any other biological male and on top of that you don't have to take T anymore, correct? 

EDIT: Also, for those who've had a hysto, how painful are they (scale of 1-10, 10 being very painful) and how long does it take for the scarring to heal?

if the egg machines are still there, then yes, you could stop T without much bone health risk, that said, muscles made will be much harder to maintain, and future growth (fur or the little guy) will pretty much stop.

If you still have the ovaries, then you'll go back to estrogen for maintenance.
If you don't have them, then you'll need to continue to take some sex-hormone in order to keep your bones healthy.

Do not want 'em anyway!

Not entirely accurate. The muscle bulk will not stay. And the fat redistribution won't either. If you have your ovaries out with the hysto, you'll have a choice to take either E or T (you have to take one or the other) and you get the muscle/fat distribution characteristic of the hormone you take; if you keep your ovaries, they make E, so unless you take T to override it, you get female muscle/fat distribution. Going off T/going on E also leads to significant reduction and softening of body hair.

Also, hormones have major effects on the brain, blood, skin, and a number of other systems. And if you keep your ovaries they still do their normal monthly cycle even without a uterus. You may be externally passable as male without T, but your body won't work like a male body.

I think depending on how long you were on T depends on how long your effects linger with some being permanent
