Title: First shot
Post by: Exus on April 21, 2014, 09:14:46 PM
I just got my first shot today. My mom gave it to me, she's still not very happy that I'm taking T but "oh well"..
I took ___ that's what he prescribed me, he told me that starting slow is better than fast to help with the moodiness and whatnot. After my first 3 months we can advance to a bigger dose.  :laugh:
Can't wait for the changes, all I have to do now is change my birth name and whatnot, It's still 2 months away since I wanna do my driver license exam first and have that changed too.

Hi Matt, it's great you've started treatment - all the best! Just a reminder though that forum guidelines do not allow discussion of actual dosages. :)

It would be cheaper to change your name and then get one license. If you get a license first then change your name you would be paying for two license.

I'm already taking the test online :/ Idk if I can show up and say "Had a name change and sex change so can you guys just go by my new name and whatnot" it's voice activated. Well, since I'm starting very slow, I guess I will maintain my voice for the next 3 months. I can finish it up (I do it on the weekend) and explain my situation.
