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

    For me, the negative effects of any surgery would mostly be the surgery itself, the cost, the pain, the healing…

      absolutely fair point, thats why im scared of it. but ultimately its a one time investment for long term benefit, i can kinda think about it the same way i think about having my blood drawn which also feels really bad every time. the cost would be a problem tho, i hope there could be some way to make my insurance cover it but im not optimistic about that
