JAKe, I’d like to “friend” you and to communicate further. Amazing that this connection could be made so quickly!
I met with a (presumably) trans-friendly surgeon just recently. I wanted to schedule an orchiectomy asap. He said no for now, no for 6 months from now, and maybe no in a year. He is on the old SOC path of having me live as a woman for a year first because the surgery is “permanent.” I wanted to avoid taking spironolactone. So… I’ve just started on spiro last week. I have one other appointment with a surgeon and other recommendations for this. At the same time, it’s maybe better for me to go way slower than I might want because it’s important for me to maintain ( maybe improve?) my relationship with my spouse who I love, respect, and like living with.
