Two Months After Stopping Testosterone (What Happened?!)

[@drewmiller8825]

Thank you for posting Laddie, I'm so proud of you and I'm so glad you're feeling better sooner rather than later 🥺

[@MxMorphling]

Thankyouuu🥺💜

@@MxMorphling 1st i say that i ain`t trying to judge here even when my words may give that picture. Now i speak: Ever thought of why trans agenda is pushed? Do we ever was able to "tradition" from one to another (ftm and mtf and back)? - NO, never was any soul able. Therefore they give us lies? - YES they did and sadly many believed. So the real reason for the agenda then? - to kill of mankind. By deceiving them enough that they believe in delusions and cut off their own procreating tools.

Thanks for being a compliant Guinea pig for us and for the sake of science haha! I don't plan on going off testosterone at all but I really do appreciate you doing this for all the people out there that do plan on either de transitioning or jist curious. Stay safe lad🙌

[@Meeko4eve39]

Thank goodness that you bounced back from that hospital stay. Being ill is never fun.But having to go to the hospital for it certainly doesn't make it any better (at least that's how I feel about it). Still super curious about what sort of changes you'll be able to document & how your journey moves on. Could be me reading too much into it or me just wanting to see things, but I feel like you are more relaxed now. Which might be because of being able to access/process your emotions differently now as you mentioned.

[@carterkentboi]

Thank you! I'm off T now too and it's rough. I, too, feel ill often. I look for others' experiences with this so how you're feeling is really helpful to me so I know it's not just me.

[@MxMorphling]

Don't worry it's not just you but hopefully feeling ill settles down for us after a while !

[@carterkentboi]

@@MxMorphling I'm for it! ☃️💓

@@MxMorphling We don´t change our gender, because we feel like it or feel wrong in our bodies: Ephesians 5:29 | View whole chapter | See verse in context For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: We are changing it /the gender) because we are made to believe lies, we were fooled / deceived. While standing face to face with our JUST JUDGE - GOD on the judgment day - all will be restored, meaning: all males standing as males and all females as females, none is "trans" there.

[@chonkybonky]

@@theharshtruthoutthere there’s a plank in your eye might want to check that out

[@theharshtruthoutthere]

@@chonkybonky ain`t bad advice. But with big possibility, in your eyes there is also 1. Let`s both check our eyes and vison out.

Sorry to hear about your illness Laddie, hope your recovery continues smoothly. And thank you so much for documenting this process - it's one of those things where resources are minimal and one person like you putting out information can make all the difference. Wishing you all the best for your continuing journey!

[@MxMorphling]

Thanks I'm much better now! And I'll try and get every bit of detail out there about how my journey goes off of T :)

[@theharshtruthoutthere]

@@MxMorphling Let me share you also how not to read the bible and how do read the bible: Be ye not deceived nor do not end up misreading the gospel. I received an agreement to use someone's comment that i find useful to use as an example of how people misread the gospel. If one read the bible like that - then one misreads the gospel. This is the comment i was allowed to use: Hello there! I appreciate your input from the perspective you come. There are a few things I'd like to run by you, that may clear up some misunderstandings. First, if I understand you correctly, you are saying that sex and gender are the same thing, and that because God says no one has ever hated their own flesh, the reason for people who claim they are transgender hate the bodies they are in is because they have been deceived by outside forces. If I have understood you properly (and please correct me if I have not), I have these points: By definition, gender and sex are not the same thing. Gender as we currently have it defined in the dictionary is a bit confusing because of how broad it is, but the difference is still major between the words "sex" and "gender". The vast majority of people who actually benefit from transitioning- what most people call transgender- do not actually believe that they are changing their sex, or their gender; they're simply aligning themselves with what they feel is the best outward expression of themselves. They're all born with this particular set of characteristics, of which some are refined or influenced in context of culture or social norms, but not dictated by them. Those who are fooled by society are not experiencing the medical version of transgenderism, so while you may be talking about people who ultimately end up detransitioning because yes, they were fooled, you are not talking about those who were born with the feeling of discrepancy within their body. It's interesting to me though that in Genesis 5:1-2, "When God created mankind, he made them in the likeness of God. He created them male and female..." If you read the literal words and do not take an interpretation, as is often used to manipulate a point someone is trying to make, if God created males and females in his likeness, then God is both male and female, and to be more Godly would mean to be both male and female. The Bible forbids man to exalt himself in this way ("Thou shalt have no other Gods before me"), and makes achieving that status in that way impossible to all but hermaphrodites, to which he then also calls them unworthy of being Priests, Leviticus 21:16-23, "For the generations to come none of your descendants who has a defect may come near to offer the food of his God. No man who has any defect may come near: no man who is blind or lame, disfigured or deformed; no man with a crippled foot or hand, or who is a hunchback or a dwarf, or who has any eye defect, or who has festering or running sores or damaged testicles." This creates a very specific hierarchy which discludes the vast majority of people from being worthy as God's chosen people, lowering many to a status less than desirable, stripping away their percieved power. That doesn't sound very loving or inspiring for improvement, does it? And if you were to say that Leviticus is part of the Old Testament and no longer in the new Christian teachings, and therefore irrelevant, who decided that they were worthy to edit the word of God, exactly? Especially since according to the Bible, none of us are Gods. While the Ephesians quote you gave me says that "no man ever yet hated his own flesh", and instructs us to love ourselves, in the New Testament we have Luke 14:26 which says "If anyone comes to me without hating his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, *and even his own life*, he can not be my disciple." It's a precondition to coming to the Lord to hate yourself, seemingly, and to find salvation by accepting Him only. Seems a bit like railroading to me. Why not find comfort in being able simply just to love yourself, without needing to outsource the work to an omnipotent being to do that for you? It seems to me that the danger in giving someone that permission is that perhaps they will use this God-like feeling to do "evil" things, but evil things are often done in the name of God anyway; humans will choose to do what they will, and justify it in the name of whatever they please. Removing self-empowerment is as poor an answer to curbing "evil" as allowing someone of poor conscience to act as they please with no consequence. Those who feel powerless can and often feel motivated to action by resentment and oppression to get justice. That's what victimhood mentality produces, too. Perhaps on the theoretical judgement day, when all is restored as you say, people will stand in front of God as he created them in his likeness: as a being that is both male and female, instead of either or, and we will realize that we are all God. The soul, who has written that comment, says that baphomet - who is satan - the old devil is the god. Well, the soul is correct in one thing: for satan is also knowns as god (with little g) and with a kingdom - this fallen earth is satan`s kingdom that has but a short time and will burn up and will be no more. This is my reply: Thanks for bothering to write back. BUT: Genesis 5:1-2, - you are misreading in here: Do read that verse with understanding means: GOD created us/humans in 3, (in short: Spirit created SPIRITS) SPIRIT = Me SOUL = consciousness = being creates as an conscious being BODY =clothing (something to dwell in) The way you read that verse, dose proof that satan has messed up or proofs that - that one reads bible without understanding. For the BIBLE is a book from SPIRIT to SPIRITS aka FROM GOD TO HUMANS. And being created as male or female meaning: being able to multiply. The word : multiply means: to create new generations. Luke 14:26 - the real meaning, meaning of the verse: you cant serve CHRIST/GOD while hanging out with unsaved/ still wicked sinners. = you`ll be still found as a wicked sinner and not a saved soul. And to love GOD 1st - He give us our existence. He created us in spirit 1st - then give us a body (carnal for now but spiritual later). Why shouldn`t i love GOD 1st and not my parents? - For i`m GOD`S creation and not my parents (earthly parents). - GOD is the Father of the whole mankind. (Therefore a parent/Heavenly Father to me as i`m a born again soul who`s sins are forgiven and to never again remembered). let`s put it that way (maybe help better to understand) - There is unsaved souls - unrepented souls who haven`t get things right with GOD (sins forgiven) and there is saved souls - saints - the true Christ followers. Luke 13:5 | View whole chapter | See verse in context I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. Luke 13:3 | View whole chapter | See verse in context I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. And there`s also 3 verse that i didn´t find but the wording goes like that: GOD HAS CALLED EVERY MAN EVERYWHERE TO REPENENCE. The questions i ask here is: Why are leaving satan - the old devil - the serpent out of the life picture? The reason for you to misread the gospel is: you are missing the helper and the comforter : THE HOLY SPIRIT who: John 14:16 | View whole chapter | See verse in context And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; John 15:26 | View whole chapter | See verse in context But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me: John 14:26 | View whole chapter | See verse in context But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. The way you read the gospel now is the way satan wants us to read. Receive the helper: THE HOLY GHOST and say to satan: get behind me satan, never tempt me again.

Really interesting to see your journey! I'm also over two months off T now. I definitely cry more often now and I process emotions better. I felt kinda.. emotionally constipated on T. Also less hunger. Hair growth is slower too. My face looks very feminine now, which is, together with my menstruation, the only change I'm not happy about 😅 but good to know my E works properly. Looking forward to see more of your journey!

[@spoons2075]

Proud of you! Doing what you feel is best for you inside and out. We all get one shot on this earth, we all deserve to live happy!

EBV (which is the virus causing glandular fever) is nasty - I had an illness in my second year of uni which was probably EBV, and after a couple of weeks of fever and tonsillitis, I had heart, thyroid and neurocognitive problems for 2 years. I went from being super fit to being unable to walk to the bus stop. I'm glad you're out of hospital, I hope you make a smooth recovery from it.

[@MxMorphling]

Yeah it's been rough to have that and also some hormone withdrawal but hopefully I'll be ok🥴🥴 glad you're finally feeling better!

[@oXTheSkyIsFallingXo]

Thanks so much for talking about this

[@ashharryfearnley8955]

My (very minimal) facial hair still grows back, moustache hairs are lighter but chin hairs still come in (approx 7/8 months off T). I've shaved my legs a few times and have gradually grown back lighter and lighter. I'd say it looks back to pre-T hair! I've had some bleeding but not a proper cycle yet. However I am on the mini pill contraceptive so that may also be interfering. I was incredibly fatigued the first few months off T. Will look forward to your updates!

[@MxMorphling]

Thanks for the info!

[@alanb750]

Wishing you the best in your journey off T. Thanks for sharing Laddie.

[@zSwagsterz]

I'm sure you didn't go cold turkey like I did. I went off for two weeks and was clockable again. Most terrifying moment of my life. I even felt feminized after a week off after losing my insurance. At the end of the week I get exhausted, irritable and working out is harder but helps. I just wish one day we can just produce the right levels

[@MxMorphling]

I have gonna completely cold turkey since November which is when I didn't take my last shot. I'm sorry that going off T effected you in that way though!

[@tinyty6570]

I’m switching soon to the testosterone gel but if that doesn’t work for me (like if I’m allergic cus I was to the patches) then I’m done I’m going to have to stop T I don’t know if HRT can cause vitamin issues cus I’m having them badly .. my vitamin B12 was so low they told me I could of ended up permanently in a wheelchair and we have no idea why it happened. I’m not vegan so it’s very strange they said . Only change I’ve had in 2 years is my testosterone and planned parenthood got defensive with me just asking if it could be the T

[@mackzok5154]

how has gel been for u man?

[@tinyty6570]

@csreindeer I have a severe b12 issue with nerve damage and don’t drink energy drinks

[@tinyty6570]

Also , do you feel like maybe you will try a birth control of some kind to help with shark week? I was thinking if I ever have to get off to try a birth control of some kind because I can’t stand the shark week . On T my shark week went away quick

[@neonblkhole]

definitely a spine issue btw. do you not have back pain??

[@myrkflinn4331]

Just be careful with your health. I'm still hoping my body won't cave . I've been sick two months but it's more like a very annoying cold like thing and I just gotta keep up. Sometimes i get pains in the shark organ but it is varies. Sometimes i have it more than others. I don't have atrophy that much yet but yeah... I hope we all get better cos things like this are scary

[@MxMorphling]

Hope ya feel better! Yeah I've been up and down with health but generally ok despite everything so hopefully that continues

[@michellejessey8654]

Did you take estrogen blockers with your test?

[@hmmmmssz870]

hey, can you not have hysto without taking away the ovaries though, so then you wouldn't be dependent on T really? Sorry if I got something wrong. I'm non-binary and this is really, really relevant and interesting; going on T soon!!

[@MxMorphling]

I think that ovaries aren't always removed during a hysterectomy but it often does occur if it would cause later complications

[@nazmindeen1457]

Yeah you have an improper posture that’s why your hips are not symmetrical

[@MxMorphling]

I had issues with hip dysplasia from birth which is my main issue
