How can anyone have the confidence to tell a doctor or anyone for that matter that they have gender dysphoria while they still have facial hair and generally just don't pass at all?

I can only imagine femguys are comfortable with taking that first step

I walked into my endo's office
>light patchy pubebeard
>18" shoulders
>6' tall
>faggy voice
>head shape of Zinedine Zidane (100% confirmed by pictriev)

This is what he said
>"Puberty barely touched you"
>"This is going to be so easy for you"
>"Compared to most, you are pretty lucky"

Even if you walked into your doc's office as a hulking lumberjack, you'll be fine. They simply don't care at all lol

Aren't those the types to gatekeep you?

I know this feel so much, it's why I done want to tell anyone I'm trans until I'm at least part way there so they don't just laugh at me

>>6814841
well they are probably used to 40 year old bald men so a 2x year old is probably a welcome change

I did it, but i definitely wasn't confident. I obviously shaved my beard, but i am definitely not feminine, i ma a disgusting man by anyone's standards, my voice is deep as fuck and was going bald. You just have to think of it as a medical problem. That is how they see it too.

I basically made an appointment with a new doctor, she lead me in to her office, i sat down then she said "so how can i help you?" and i said "i need a referral to a psychiatrist, one that deals with gender issues.." then she said "gender issues?" and i'm like "er... yah... i have gender dysphoria". there is a slight pause and i am super scared and trying to look for a reaction in her face. Then her phone rang and i think oh fuck oh fuck, and she says sorry and answers it and then gets up to wheel some ultrasound machine or something out of the room while i am sitting there feeling super mega fucking terrified about what her response is going to be. Then she sits back down and i am woried she is gonna tell me to fuck off, but she desnt. She asks me the typical questions to evaluate me, basically described my dysporia also answered other questions to help her rule out schizophrenia etc Then she took my done doctor stuff like check my heart beat and feel my ribs etc, then she says "i would like to examine your scrotum" then i am like fuck that!, but say "ok lets do it and get it over with" she feels my balls and i try not to look, it was horrible, then she finishes and says "well done" i am like wha? are my balls big or something? then realize she meant well done for getting through it, she then gives me a referral to psychiatrist, psychologist, and another GP specialists in sex conditions and has experience with transgender patients.

Try to be brave, and remember gender dysphoria is just another medical condition. It helped me to practice saying what i wanted to say in the mirror, trying to keep eye contact..

Psychiatrists are the gatekeepers, endos only give you hormones no matter how bad and masculine you look.

>i would like to examine your scrotum
why do they always do that?
at least they did that to me too
>>
>>6814909
chances are your insurance will be fine with any psychologist and all you'd need is a referral for depression or something...
then you just find a psychologist who deals with gender shit.
i never told my doctor

I'm in the military and had no choice, but to do that. It's probably the most nervous I've ever been telling someone about it as it's a doctor I've only seen once before. He was pretty chill about it all considering and was willing to learn more. Still foching nerve racking though.

Not really

I'm sure they'd be enraged if they learned I've been using blackmarket drugs willy nilly

And they might try and order me and then threaten me into either socially going mtf or turning into some caveman.

And I can't ever bring myself to ever go talk with them about this. I know they'll try and take controll of my life and push me to either extreme and force me to give up something about myself I like.
