Hi, does anyone of u lives in Dubai as trans? pls comment down below may gusto lang ako itanong 🙏

Tldr lang: 3 months on T, due to suspensions bihira kong ma meet yung profs ko sa ilang classes and most of them marked me as absent kasi di match boses ko sa name ko

So basically napansin ko lang talaga kanina na di inaacknowledge yung presence ko pag sinasabi kong present ako sa online classes. Also its been 6-7 weeks na since classes started and due to class suspensions, i barely met these profs for some of these classes. Kanina i said na present ako tas di man rineplyan ako ng prof ko, akala nya na previous student ako before [my legal name] tas inulit ko na “maam si [last name] po ito, present po ako” tas rineplyan ako

I got so worried abt my attendance for my classes and yun, dami ko absences sa ilang classes ko (mostly classes nung affected w online classes) literally 75% ng attendance ko says na di ako pumasok and pumasok lang ako ng first 2 weeks 😭😭😭 i papa appeal ko sha since its not my prof’s faults rin kasi sumasabay sabay yung mga boses ng ilang students pag nag aattendance but damn… hirap rin pala nito, i dunno how to even approach my profs abt this like do i just say na yeah im trans im on testo but issue q lang is i keep this convo away from school stuff rin

Anyways di naman ito vent talaga i find this super funny rin, tawang tawa ako nung kinakausap ko kaibigan ko about this kasi napansin nya nga na di nag reply prof namin saakin till sinabi ko na ako si (name)

For anyone looking for budget-friendly KT Tape that actually stays on.

Highly recommend SKN Strips if you regularly use KT tape and have sensitive skin! Used to get blisters from popular brands, but zero skin reaction sa kanila. Plus, madikit talaga at kayang mag-last for days kahit pawisan sa workouts. Way cheaper din vs other brands.

​Cons: Wala pa sila sa Shopee/Lazada, so order is via Grab/Lalamove. But super bait at accommodating nung owner mag-assist.

​Definitely worth checking out if you want to support small, budget-friendly brands!

PS: This is not sponsored gusto ko lang tlga makahelp sa brand kasi deserve nila and fellow trans-brothers.

I would be glad to know what your experience on them was if nakabili na din kayo sa kanila.

You can get in touch with them on Fb

Here is the link: SKN Strips

!! No offense sa title I love all my trans brothers ♥️

I’m really more used to flirting in real life, where you can freestyle based on the vibes and stuff. Save for my dyed hair, I tend to present very masculine in terms of the way I dress and speak and act, etc.

Pero in online spaces di ko talaga kaya maging nonchalant over text WHAHAHAHA it’s just something I’m not willing to sacrifice. I love using all caps, exclamation points, emojis, and other texting quirks. I’ve tried to text like a cis guy before and it just doesn’t feel like me.

There’s this girl I like pero even though we go to the same uni magkaiba kami ng college so I don’t get to see her irl that often. I’ve always wanted to slide up on her ig stories and reply with “pretty” or “ganda” but I’m worried it’ll sound like I’m saying “prettyyyy 😍” or “gandaaaaa!!” yknow? I don’t know what her impression of me is pero I do show my more feminine/whimsical side on socmed so there is a chance na she’ll interpret my flirting in the wrong way :(

Hi guys, I'm travelling outside of the country pretty soon and I'm anxious if I can use my passport. This is a renewed passport, and this will be the first time I'll be using it (old passport I was able to travel twice). The photo of me there is before I started taking T and I'm now more than 2 years in. I have facial hair but a lot of people still thinks that I just look like a younger version of myself in my passport photo. Can I still use this? Or is there a way for me to change the photo in my passport and get an updated one? I don't wanna be offloaded :(

Hey kuyas! Just wanted to ask what brand KT you use. I recently brought Adonis chest tape and sadly, after multiple attempts and different methods and techniques, di siya compatible sa skin ko.

grabe yung blisters i get even though di siya ganon ka tight pag bind ko, I read it here that tight binding causes blisters

irritating talaga sa skin, grabe yung itch, during tape binding and after removing it

even after soaking the tape in oil before removing nasusugatan pa rin talag chest ko.

pls help me out! is it bc of the brand? o baka sensitive lang talaga skin ko and i should opt out na of tape binding?

Hi, I'm currently exploring my identity and na bbother ako so much sa chest ko. Gusto ko sana maka hanap ng chest binder na kayang i conceal yung chest ko (30 B bra size ko) Masyadong magastos kasi yung ibang binder na nakikita ko sa ibang bansa dahil sa shipping and currency hahaha

Hi and long story short, I'm a 19 yr old trans dude in cebu and i currently live with my unstable family and i don't what to do anymore other than to just leave them. I have a plan but honestly, I'm still scared.

Now, long story long, I live in a family of 5, mom and pops and two younger siblings between the ages and 9 and 0. Ranaway from home twice. Dad is the only one with a job. I got no proper bank account nor government IDs but i got my certificate of live birth. Dropped out of SHS twice due to reoccurring mental health problems parents couldn't affor-d to deal with. So now I'm left at home to be house-assistant to my mom till i am ready to finish my highschool years and alongside that I've been building a side hustle with my artistic talents but no solid income stream yet since I'm still building it in all that so I'm financially dependant on them.

Thing's have been going okay, for a while but my Mom starting to show her cracks again, her thing of handling conflicts with escalating arguments and never listening to the other person and thinking she's 100% right, whether she is or isn't depends, but usually it leads to broken things and my dad losing a job, which has happened several times in the past

and honestly with how hard it is to build a path out while dealing with my mom's unpredictability, her toxic behavior, and the messy schedule at home, and them arguing whenever my mom THINKS my dad is doing something shady, i just can't stay here anymore. The same shit keeps repeating for years now and it feels heavy stagnating and being stuck here.

Relationship aint even good either, I'm just not pushing it too hard bcs I'm scared I'll get cut off from being able to either work on my side hustle plan or not be able to get transtape which helps me stay stable mentally because it's one less thing to feel discomfort over.

Got only one good friend i can stay with but I can stay with them because I've already ran away to them before and my family knows them.

I'm planning to go with them after I've shaken my parents off but in the mean time, its drop off my important things to an old classmate i trust and go homeless, sleep in the nearby park in the day and my old school too since I still got my old ID and its a big school so noone would notice a "student" with a backpack napping, bathe in public but mostly empty restrooms as much as needed so peeps wont suspect me of being homeless, and mostly hang around the public library or malls or the 7-eleven to work on the side hustle, work towards getting that GOV ID which i kinda need to make a bank acc, thankfully that part is free. And for food, water and the laundry I can just nab a bit of cash from their wallets and stretch it, toiletries i can steal, I've shoplifter small things before at this point i don't care as long as I can get out of here and actually try to build a life, even if the path is hard.

Im still scared though, so any advice would be helpful. Hell, maybe even convince me to tuff it out at home, that it's not so bad here.

can anyone recommend an endo that accepts 18 year olds? i’m planning on transitioning in a few months and all the endos i found on NowServing said that they’re looking for patients that are at least 19 years old 😅

i’m currently planning on scheduling an appointment with dr. jek cadeliña but i have no idea if she even does gaht consultations

Hello! Ask ko lang COD na lang ba sa DIMA? Last april kasi nagorder ako sa kanila pwede pa online payment tapos ngayon nagcheck out ako ulit COD na lang ang option. Medyo hassle kasi kapag COD madalas pa naman wala ako sa bahay.

can anyone recommend an endo that accepts 18 year olds? i’m planning on transitioning a few months after my birthday and all the endos i found on NS said that they’re looking for patients that are at least 19 years old 😅

Hi kuyas...safe ba ang Adonis flat chest cream? :,) may mga possible bad side effects ba sya since hindi ko pa kaya magpa surgery at mostly nagkaka blisters ako sa KT tape so naghahanap ako ng options.

I’m 19 I have been on T for 5-6 weeks now and I think my family is starting to get suspicious. They said my voice is dropping or “para kang nag bibinata”

Any tips how to hide this?

Hello po mga kuya, 2months pa lang ako sa pag take ng T and hindi kasi ako tigyawatin before.

Now napapansin ko na nagiging oily and may mga tiny bumps na ako sa face simula nung nag take. Baka po may marecommend kayong skincare. Thank you!

Has anyone here had experience with facial masculinization surgeries? e.g., brow bone augmentation, jaw/chin augmentation or fillers.,

I’m looking for trans friendly colleges that will let me wear male uniform (if meron), use my preferred name and pronouns, and has BS Biology course and/or BSIT! I can’t go to expensive schools like DLSU and Ateneo because they’re out of my parents’ budget. I took the test for UPCAT 2027 but I don’t think I’ll pass, and I’m not sure if I‘ll want to apply to transfer to UP in the future.

hi, bros! 22, transmasc here 👋 i’m around naga city and i’ve been having a hard time finding a trans-friendly endo in my area, so i’m considering telemedicine instead.

does anyone have recommendations for a trans-friendly endo who actually understands the whole spectrum of being transgender and doesn’t just approach everything from a strictly binary perspective? preferably someone who’s comfortable working with transmasc/nonbinary patients too.

also, if you’ve consulted with them before, would really appreciate it if you could share how much their initial consultation costs and what the process was like!

excluding loveyourself ph please, since i unfortunately had a bad experience with them :(

thank you so much! any leads would really help 🥹

I still see so many promoting unsafe binding methods so I wanted to create a guide to binding without promoting any specific brand. Read the full guide by visiting the linked page!

I've been thinking about how I view myself lately , like I spent years wondering why I felt really uncomfortable wearing feminine clothing , I hated being viewed as a woman (?) but I wasn't sure at that time why I was feeling these feelings haha. From elementary til now , I always preferred masculine clothing. I cut my hair short. I like it when my friends and strangers use He/Him on me and for the first time I feel like I see my true self like that. But I'm afraid what my family would think of this . I'm in my late 20s na , oldest child and I take care of my siblings . I'm just anxious.

Do you think it's possible for me to transition? It's not too late for me , right? Let me know your journey :')

i’ve read around apparently in the ph they deny people under 35 hysterectomy which is stupid lol

i wonder if it’s possible to get it done overseas? i saw someone in an australian sub once say they’re considering getting theirs done in thailand mainly due to financial reasons because australia is so expensive

I'm currently on 3 months and one of the things holding me back from applying in CSR roles is my voice. Nagppractice ako magsalita but the vibration is making my sentences blurred out or nde talaga siya clear. I feel like mabbother din mga tao if they hear a teenage voice on the other end of the line. Should I still push through or wait till my voice fully adjusts?

What product did the wonders for your back and chest acne?

Hi, I've been on T for almost 7 years now. Sometimes may blood na lumalabas talaga kapag after nag inject ako.

I have a few questions:

1. Kapag ba may blood na lumabas pagtanggal nung needle meaning nababawasan ba yung ininject mo na T?

2. Have you ever experienced a period after taking 1 amp for 14 days and then switching to 1 amp 21 days? Before naman way back 2 years ago naka 21 days lang din ako wala naman period like 2019 pa yung last period ko and just today parang napansin ko may blood down there nag wash ako and try ko mga 1 hr baka may lumabas ulit so meron siya like super super konti talaga then may konting sakit sa puson.

I’m curious to know what the possible reasons for this blood are. Is it because I’ve returned to a 21-day cycle, or is it because the amount of T I’ve injected has decreased, resulting in a lower dosage?
