I just had a consultation about my surgeries with #Psytrans.
There are some really good news (#transjoy) and some instances of #DutchHellCare:
Let’s start with the good stuff:
My endocrinologist actually did a nice thing and accepted my detailed records about how I did #OpenHRT combined with the one bloodtest I payed myself as sufficient evidence to accept my actual starting date as starting date for HRT.
Thank you Gina, I really and actually appreciate that! (#NameAndPraise)
This means that the Dutch healthcare system now accepts that I’ve actually completed my first year of HRT, which is the requirement to start the process for #BottomSurgery. 😊
In that regard I’m pretty clear on what I want and at the same time very open about the details: Full #vaginoplasty, no half-meassures like pure #orchiectomy or zero-depth. How exactly they are doing it is something that I don’t particularly care about, which is good, because this is also pretty much the extend to which they let you choose.
Accordingly this part of the conversation was over pretty quickly and we moved to #FacialFeminisationSurgery…
And the first issue is that it is relatively hard to get it covered. You essentially need to have issues passing, because otherwise it would be considered a cosmetic surgery which isn’t covered. Annoying, but on the other hand also somewhat understandable. The more annoying thing is that hair-transplants are almost never covered anyways,
Which brings us to cost…
So first of all Dutch hell-insurance only pays up to Dutch rates which are not cost-covering for bottom surgery (in case anyone was wondering why the waiting-lists are long: This is one of the reasons, hospitals loose money on it), so of the 20.000€ that one could expect to pay in Thailand, Dutch insurances would only pay 14.000€. So a 6000€ difference probably + travel cost. A lot of money, but I could cover that without too many issues.
Now full FFS can apparently get to 40.000€…
Which would not be completely impossible, but in “pillage retirement-savings”-territory…
Well, in the end I decided to go onto Radbout’s waiting list for a combined surgery (which would also be fully covered by health-insurance, which would be a huge benefit), so if I manage to hit the weight-targets, I might get surgery in maybe like two years or so?
Speaking of it: I really need to loose weight, that will definitely be the biggest problem going forward…

CW: trans, surgery question, voting
A question for those who've undergone orchi. Mine is 31-Oct. Election is Nov-5. I'm in a rural area, with the original plan being to vote in person on the day. Likely won't be long lines. Am I going to feel okay to do that?
Thanks in advance.

CW: Trans, Gender affirming surgery
I just got home from a surgery consult for an #orchiectomy. I like the surgeon. Once I have my letters I will be starting the process. My therapist is on vacation this week.
We've already discussed my intention, so I imagine the letters are pretty much a foregone conclusion. Then it's a matter of scheduling the pre-op appointments, and scheduling the actual surgery. 🎉

CW: Gender affirming surgery?
Fingers crossed. 🤞
I've begun searching for a surgeon for an #orchiectomy. I am cautiously hopeful I might be able get that done early next year.
I heard back from one surgeon's office this afternoon. I have a consult on 26-Sep. Another hasn't returned my call yet. Both are in network with my insurance.

CW: hornyposting
Can’t wait to get neutered and be teased for having such a big beautiful cock, dripping with need, as they finger my nutless sack like the pussy it’s meant to be. Maybe one day it’ll become just that.
Even without all that testosterone flowing through me, my libido couldn’t be higher. That instinctual drive to breed growing stronger. That longing to put a litter in someone. Mind growing hazy from the heat. And yet, not a drop of potency left.

CW: Keeping testes after orchi
I found out tonight that apparently you can request to keep your testes for "religious reasons" after an orchidectomy (aka orchiectomy) and it's very difficult for a surgeon to say no if you live somewhere with religious anti-discrimination rules.
Do with this information what you will 😏🤭

I was able to get my #estrogen #prescription raised to 4mg and today will be my second day at that level.
Already I can feel some positive changes going on and I am excited to see what happens from here.
Now, back to searching for a #urologist that will do an #orchiectomy and be covered by insurance.
