      If I hadn’t treated that 18 year old FTM who was 78 lbs and 5’8 for their 11b hydroxylase deficiency, they would have literally died.

      But treating them, accidentally resolved their dysphoria, and now they are healthy and “normal”.

      There is no “cure” for gender dysphoria, but there are treatments and cures for medical conditions that CAUSE gender dysphoria (sometimes). There are certain mutations that cause it that are utterly untreatable and unfixable (with current technology). But I will tell you that I’m getting that request more and more often lately, and I am getting better at doing it successfully.

      What the fuck???

      Dr. Will Powers seem so werid to me. Also this is feeding my detransition conversion therapy brain worms if I’m being honest. So what the fuck is it? What can I trust when it comes to him? Is his stuff actually trustworthy?

      See, I agree in concept that it likely is something similar to this, BUT I am a flat tranny who is confirmed Fast COMT (the best variant for estrogen receptibility/breakdown/turnover/etc), so it can’t be just that.

      What I will say is if we ignore boobs, I think me and a friend (also fast COMT) had the most drastic changes amongst the trans people we know, so there is anecdotal validity there. BUT again neither of us grew boobs and are both dysphoric over being flat.

        BUT BUT BUT both of us had orchis super early into transition, which I theorize is the true culprit as I mentioned yesterday.

            lower androgens than a cis woman. When I went insane and microdosed testosterone I finally developed breast buds as a side effect

              Had no clue that was an influence (I’m 15 years in no orchi or srs) very interesting guess I’ll try to keep that in mind for any young girls I meet to help them

    The genes associated with having dysphoria over having no boobs also fuck with the estrogen receptors in that area of your body or something most likely. Phenomenon similar to how trans girls are more likely to bald younger.

                  “yes they do have a choice but they chose not to and complain about being flat because of patriarchy, they also dont want boobs because of patriarchy”

                  also trust me you cant just “chose” to want breasts i speak from experience, thats retarded

              I think some ladies just like their biology and stuff. Maybe that’s my anecdotal experience, though.

                nah. cis women only like their bodies if they think of there being no choice.

                even if they do like their bodies, they dont like being subjugated to the woman role unless, again?, theg think theres no choice
