Hay everyone, I'm Amber. I have recently been told that I can start HRT for male to female soon and I am crazy excited. I am 25 years old, and I have spent most of my life until now hoping for death because I was born in someone else's body. After I came out my life flipped, and suddenly I had a chance to live as myself (It feels sorta like waiting to be born).

This last month has been bothering me a TON however. I am constantly worried over my face, to which sometimes I break down crying. I am terrified of it, and for years I let my appearance slip because it just wasn't my face. I never have used my face as a profile picture, and for years (before I was out) I have coward away from mirrors (sometimes even covering them up to avoid looking at a stranger's face) I have sometimes been told that it is feminine (even before coming out) but I am very genuinely bothered by it.

Hopefully I am nervous over nothing (I may be drastically distorting my appearance, and on the bright side is I can stand to look at it since coming out) What does everyone think of it? Do you think I will need FFS? (I am required to have some degree of facial surgery for a deviated septum)

PS. My hair's on being bad right now. I intend to grow it very long :D

Welcome to Susan's Amber.  My advice would be to spend some time on HRT before making any decisions about any kind of facial surgery.  HRT alone can bring about some very nice facial changes and by the look of your photo I would say you've already got a good base to start with.

Hi Amber.  Worrying is only productive when it is a signal to take action.  In your case, you have already taken the necessary action.  You arrived here in this wonderful place, and will soon be starting HRT.  Now it is time to wait for and enjoy the results.

Hi Amber and welcome to Susan's. Please give hormones a chance. You are so young and your face is still so androgynous. I think you will be a lovely young lady in a relatively short time.

Take some courage with you, (I'll share mine), You will be a fine young lady in the eyes of all that get to meet the real you.

Hi Amber, Welcome to Susan's

Lots of good information here... I would hold off on any consideration of FFS until HRT is started and starts working its magic.... And you certainly have age on yourside...myou could be surprised.

Anyway Welcome, hope to see you about..
