This is just an update to my previous post about my appointment with Planned Parenthood.

That appointment went great! They just went through the standard Informed Consent stuff and some brief information about myself, and then made sure there were no conflicts with my current meds. They gave me the all clear, sent the prescription through to my pharmacy, and here I am!

Very psyched to embark on this journey

    Whoo! Good luck. I wish I was confident enough to know where I wanted to go about this, but I’m happy that you’re able to take this big step!

      Thank you! It is definitely scary for me, and the world is not in a very accepting place for trans people, but I feel like this is the right direction. I hope you end up living in whatever way makes you most happy!

        I know about the world not being very accepting for us. I live in the Deep Southern US and am about to leave a (shit tier) job, because a young transmasc asked about everyone’s thoughts on transgender bathroom rights when the manager came back and told us under no circumstances are we allowed to talk about it. I checked back later that day and they had taken the time to remove the google LGBT friendly emblem on their google overview.

        Young transmasc never came back and they intentionally didn’t fill the position, didn’t compensate for the extra labor, cut everyone’s hours, canceled linen service, got a truck delivery denied for non-payment, and the lists just go on.

        I should’ve noped out when the bathroom thing happened, but I was still doing the Stockholm Syndrome thing.

        I gave that place countless hours off the clock to keep it a float. After that I stopped. Didn’t even take a month for the place to be overrun with roaches and for our waste to go through the roof.

        Good riddance to bad garbage.

        I hope they enjoy their inbreed redneck clientele that thinks they are a bunch of price gougers for charging 80$ for a 3 lb tomahawk steak.

        They’ll get everything they deserved plus some.
