Oh! I thought it may have just been something that you could pick up at your local pharmacy.

I don't know where in Alaska you are. Right here in Anchorage there are plenty of T-girls. I've even noticed a few that live in my neighborhood. We also have a GLBT community center, four GLBT bars (well, that's not a lot--but it's better than nothing), and a few churches that embrace GLBTs.

It's good to know that I'm not alone up here. smile

Thank you both, for your supportive information.:)

I don't know how comfortable you are with your classmates, but local high schools have a Gay-Straight Alliance, UAA has the Family, and APU has something whose name escapes me. Since you're still a teen, you'll have to wait awhile for the bars--but there is an underage club in town. And some of the young gays I know go to raves whenever they can.

God please Perfect_Dark, don't try to remove anything yourself. For one, you could die, really you could, if not from bleeding than from infection, and that would be no good at all. You're likely going to WANT and NEED the stuff down there later if you ever want SRS, the last thing you want is to have to have everything removed because of infection.

See a shrink for a few months, get him/her to write a letter to a doctor, get anti-androgens, and you won't need to hurt yourself. Let the drugs do their thing, you're so young you'll do just fine. Waiting a few months will be alright, but I know it feels like forever. Save up and eventually have surgery, and they'll take care of things the right way. It will feel like forever, but it won't be.

Anyway welcome to the forum! You'll find lots of good advice and help here. You're in the right place.

Your 17! So Perfect Dark Your by far ahead of the game. The sooner one starts Transition the better the results are. So your wanting to remove The nasty Androgen producing Gonads.

The best way to do so is go though the proper channels. Unfortunately It my take some time to get an "Orchie" (Castrastion), Cannot spell correct medical term.

Patience young one.
