im usually pretty scared of surgical stuff, but ive been thinking about this and realized there would be a lot of benefits.

i would 100% stop producing sperm (while i am on hormones, its never quite 100%) so i can stop worrying about that

i would produce less testosterone which would probably be good

tucking and stuff would become easier / i could more easily wear fem clothing

i have yet to think of any negative effects so…

if any of you have experience with this or anything, please let me know so i can hopefully make an informed decision

This is me rn
I developed a painful varicocele and they want me to get a varicocelectomy, but like if I have to get surgery down there I’d rather they just remove them. The problem is I haven’t socially transitioned yet and I’ve heard the docs would be reluctant to give an orchi to someone that hasn’t

ugh thats so annoying, why do people want us to socially transition when our bodies arent ready to be perceived as female yet, kinda feels backwards to me
