It's a rare case where a medically necessary proceedure requires a cosmetic proceedure that insurance refuses to pay.

Yeah

its would be weird to wake up without a dick

For you.

They won't do it on a whim.

You have to have psychological problems with it like I do.

It's not like those shallow plastic surgeries like boob jobs or nose jobs that they hand out like candy.

You need to be on hormones for a year before they'll even consider it. Which themselves take at minimum six months to get.

Isnt it like, you feel gender dysphoria, but after the procedure itself you feel other dysphoria because you changed your body so much?

Its a really massive thing to consider though like you cant reverse that kind of shit amoritr

Also inverting dicks must bw pretty weird for the surgeon guy

Not really. Very few surgeons do it so the few that do... it's basicaly all they do. So it's a normal day for them.

So you have to set it up months in advance.

The mere thought of genitals being castrated sends chills down my spine

I see

That's why they make you jump through hoops to get it. Because it's permanent and can't be undone.

I mean ive looked up rhino plasty and just a nose job heals for like a year or some shit so how much would that take to heal???!!

It's not something you can really put into terms someone else can understand. It's like trying to explain what color is to someone who was born blind.

A big reason it's medically necessary is that almost everyone who has it harms themselves.... right there, because they know it's not supposed to be there. It's deeply embedded into your pysche. You can't control it and it bothers you all the time. Making you feel terrible about it all the time.

Closest feeling I can compare it to is if you have a really big and painful splinter in your finger. It's driving you insane that it's there and you want so desperately to take it out.

And you're not going to miss that splinter when it's gone. Because to you it was foreign and didn't belong on your body in the first place.

Oh i get it

Not every trans person has this issue. Some do, some don't. It's seperate from being the wrong gender.

i castrated myself

jus 2 see if i still feel

Imagine if you couldn't take that splinter out of your finger and you had to live with it being there every day of your life for decades. That's what it feels like.

Yeah i get what you mean since i go nuts when i have a splinter

And it never reaches a point where you don't notice it or don't feel it.

Do people experience phantom limb when they get castrated

🤔

Not as far as I know. No.

Ok

That would be weird

Lol

Phantom limb issues often comes from your brain still thinking muscles in the missing limb are constricted and flexing.

Oh ok

Yeah i forgot about that aspect of it

Solutions for the problem usually amount to tricking your brain into thinking it's relaxing those muscles.

I feel like a ni🅱️🅱️a now
