I use the estrogen patches. You will get the full dose of estrogen unlike the pills which you only get about 80%. The liver filters out about 20% of the estrogen from the pills. I recommend the parches because it’s 1 patch a week.
Stay away from the chasers, they don’t want you for anything but a hook up.. You will end up feeling like shit and they won’t care. All they want to do is use you. If you didn’t want to be used before your transition, you will hate it after. You have to respect yourself in order for others to respect you. Hooking up is not a bad thing, just make sure it’s not the only thing.
Thank you for this, Adea.. I seriously needed to hear this right now, it’s like we’re connected, because I’ve been thinking about this so much lately. Thank you for being honest and real. Love ya 💚👑🩷
She made a mistake about hormones in case you need to know 💚: hormones are bio identical so its natural ( 17 beta estradiol ) but of course its exogenous, not produced by our body in enough quantity. But birth control ( ethinyl estradiol ) is synthetic, not a natural molecule. Cis women take it. Some trans women too. But cis women who take hrt after ménopause or other reasons can take bio identical hrt too: injections patches gel pills etc
@@Aurora146wait u can use birth contrôl as hrt? Now it makes sense why this gay boy in my school started developing à female physique after he told us he was taking birth control
Yep, transitioning is for yourself and no one else!!! I do want to pass, but to me that has a different meaning, and that is wanting 100% physical change and being the woman and feminine being I know I am, and have known I was since early childhood, and being able to suffer through all the sadness, hate, and pain to do it, willing to get all the surgeries, and go through everything until I'm my authentic self, no matter how long it takes!!! This is forever, it's best to do it right!!! I'm not doing it for society or anyone else, I'm doing it for me!!!
@@Livvy_xo aww thank you love. I started when I was 25, came off hormones after 5 months then started again when I was 27. I’m nearly 29 now. We all have that feeling but, the thing that did it for me was, can I continue to age as a male or do I start hormones and try to fix that. I would have rather not been here than to age as a male. Hope everything goes well for you in whatever you continue to do
@@Louurilwhy did u come off hormones? And tbh this is the dilemma im also having rn...whenever I see middle aged males I look at myself ( 20 years old who still hasn't finished puberty and mostly can pass for both genders for now) and ask myself do I really want to age like that? Losing hair overtime, storing more fat in your belly? Develop broad shoulders and narrow hips??? No!! Idec to be "viewed"as a woman specifically I just do not like what comes with the Développement of the male sex, that's why I don't care for having boobs or anything but would like to have wider hips or just store fat in there, lose muscle mass and just have softer skin
@@tsuyuasui7297 I came off hormones because I had a toxic boyfriend at the time who basically forced me off them. To be honest, I kinda worded my previous comment a little badly. I’ve had gender dysphoria ever since I can remember, and the final straw to doing something about it was growing older as a man. I definitely wouldn’t be here if I was to not go through with it. I really would advise to look into the effects of transition and taking hormones before you do start them if you don’t have gender dysphoria, there are a lot of other things that come with it that someone without dysphoria would not like.
Your advice on men was very good especially for the younger girlies which will find it hard but if you have a good family support system they should protect you from those type of men! Mine had to step in and protect me. It’s confusing and hurtful because you’re taking higher than average estrogen /hrt so the attraction to men just rushes in your head since you are really activating those genes with hormone therapy.😮 just protect yourself! There’s lots of S/A that happens to us kinda girls we need to be careful ❤also choose your friends wisely they can set you up…. 😮or be jealous frenimies…it’s hard holding in your feelings sometimes for protection but it’s necessary .
I have to apologize, when i saw the first part of the video I got my back up a bit, because it sounded too much like ' if you aren't like me, young and pretty, didn't have the burning truth of 'I am trans', dont do it'. Your edit was really heartfelt, and leaving in the opening was smart, bc it shows how it is easy even for well meaning ppl to aay things that come out wrong. The key thing you did wss acknowledge that was your experience; w trans girls our stories are all different. I knew what trans was a long time ago, when I was questioning as a teen many decades ago . Already knew what was then called a tv and thought i was that (there also were signs that i wasn't, as well, that i didnt figure out, like why when I reverted back after dressing I felt so horrible; it was so bad I lived in tension, where i felt good about myself dressing up, but the pain of coming back was so bad it deterred me from dressing much). I also spent a lot of time as a teen reading up on trans ppl, this was roughly the time Renee Richards came onto the scene,which was kind of strange if i id'ed as a crossdresser. For people who have buried ut, there often isn't that Eureka moment, it took me years to work through the walls I put up emotionally. There is an expression that life is lived foreard but you understand it looking back. With me there were clues going back into early childhood, things that made no sense looked at individually but together unlocked emotions and helped me put it together And thank you about the community, that there isnt one. There are a lot of groups or sects, there are those that if you dont meet their definition, you aren't trans and treat you as such. There are those who think you only should do as they do, which is just ego. There are bitter ppl who will look at Adea and say 'What do you know? You had it easy, you are young and beautiful, men will throw themselves at you, people will never clock you'....and not know how hard they had it trying to find themselves, rejection pf loved ones, abuse, you dont know.Easy is a relative thing, it may be easier to rransition if you are young and pretty, physucally, but it isnt easy. With HRT agree. They do use natural hormones, or did ( premarin, estrace i believe) but they come from other sources , premarin was from mares, but most are synthetic. Any oral hormone puts a strain in the liver snd kidneys in processing it. Injectibles have the upside of going into the bloodstream, bypassing liver and kidneys, but they also cause mood swings on a huge scale and if not monitored properly can cause issues..patches are like injectibles but absorb through the skin so are slower. You also can take orals sub linguanally ( under the tongue) and that goes into the bloodstream, but idk how well that works. Health wise given what you are trying to do, the body is under a big load, it is not the same thing as a woman born that way, you are shifting basic biology. Drinking luts a large load on the body, so keeping alcohol moderate is inportant ( hard when many girls fiest experiences out can be clubs and bars). The other thing is smoking or vaping. With hrt of any kind there is the risk if blood clots and smoking/vaping makes it worse, much worse. Women born that way have an elevated risk of clots, women taking bc pills who smoke have a much bigger risk of heart attacks or strokes. adea, the most valuable thing you said was in the end, it is aboot your hapiness with yourself. Transition is a journey that starts with that first question and ends when you feel happy with itself. Peolle think transition is about the end goal.of living as a woman ( or man), it isn't imo ( and that is all this is). Transition is a process to take someone unhappy with themselves and figuring out what you need. You might find being in hrt by itself works, where you might dress part time or be androgynous or whatever. You may go further, eveb get breast implants, but then again be part time. You might find early on you are okay with dressing up regularly,maybe get your beard and body hair removed to make ut easier or do low dose hormones even. Wherever you stop, you likely will have changed for the better, whatever you decide you are or where you stop. Again, transition is a process of change , not the ultimate goal.
Yess love this! As I explain it simply to people: Gener dysphoria is a mental illness transition alleviates those symptoms. People who are born trans NEED to transition to live a full and happy healthy life, not all those who transition ARE trans, even thought that is a small percentage of transitioned peoples (even fewer then actual trans people who transition who ARE trans but detransition due to societal/personal pressures/issues. if that makes sense typed lol.) Personally I always saw myself as a girl and it wasn't until seeing Jaz Jennings on that 20/20 special when I was a preteen did it click, however bc of my religious upbringing and society I didn't think was possible until my 20s. IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO TRANSTION. It's not easy and it takes time,, a whole life time even. but it is worth living ur truth then denying it
Gender dysphoria is not a mental illness, it is gender variance due to brain biology likely, it is much like sexual identity is wired in the brain. The reason it is important not to use mental illness is that is a loaded term used by the nasties to disparage that trans ppl are real and to deny them a legitimate existence. First word out of the mouth of conservatives is ' they are mentally ill ppl, they should be locked up or sedated'.
Same over here I have a very religious family and community, ive been thinking of taking HRT at 20, and since male puberty is so harsh I don't want to delay my transition any time further
@@tsuyuasui7297 so happy for you! Take your time, research as much as possible, every transition and story is different. I recommend that everyone find there nearest LGBTQ center for all the info and help in your transition, helped me 10 fold. (Also to move out here to califoornia! lol. Insurance covers my transition entirely)
I'm slowly reaching my 6th trans anniversary and looking at the past years. Transidendity was probably the least challenging part of my life. I came full-time that's it. The rest came in its time when it became obvious to do it without a particular plan. I have time as my goal to be full-time was already full filled. On the other hand, bladder cancer was really challenging - the best place for trans people. It's a run against the clock: chemotherapy, immunotherapy and surgery should be completed in less than 6 months to have the best chance to win the battle against the 🦀. Thereafter I have to cope with annoying side effects plus living with Mrs Stomy.
Yes ive been transitioning for about 8-9 months and she is sooooo right dolls dont mess with these men in the beginnings i would say wait 2 years or so too finally start experimenting cause these men will only treat you like a fetish and they will most likely leave you in the gutter, adea u have been such a amazing guide for me and u are doing justice for are community! 🏳️⚧️🫶🏼
You’re an amazing human being. Very inspiring and beautiful. Keep shining. Also, I saw your response on the previous vid. Thank you for the response. I can totally see what you mentioned about doing a vid on putting nails. Looking forward for part 2 on this vid. Thank you for keeping things real as well. Have a great day. 😃
Transition is super challenging, definitely not easy as people think it is... Even Cis-woman can be hateful to trans women who are more feminine than them. Great advice:) ❤
Hi Adea. I first heard of you thru Maya where you all did a Brain Rot episode together. Enjoyed your interview and look forward to seeing whatever videos you do on your own.
For myself - it was mainly about the quality of life - how will I survive - how will I make my livelihood … skills / talents / credentials… - I refused to end up in poverty ! - a situation that could trigger severe depression… be careful about what you wish for ..
I can so much relate to the things you've said. I'm into the transition for about 3 years now, taking hormones for a bit over a year. I'm going my way and it was the best thing I could ever do for myself. I'm single for more than 4 years now and I'm going all the steps all alone, but that's fine. Don't need anyone else. Btw, I'm 57. Thank you for this video. 🧚♀️💜😊
Hi, thank you for your video. You hit a lot of pints that I am going through ,I am transitioning now and had a lot of problems to with friends and family ,but most friends and work friends they couldn't understand why I wanted to transitioning into a woman, but I am the most happy person now in my life just ,love being a transgender woman now ps please keep making your videos love Denise Stirling
literally ateee. I am so glad I did not go around dating any men in the beginning. I'm around two years into my transition and finally generally passing and stable, and I notice that I just do not let shit pass when I am looking for a guy. Compared to my trans sisters, I just feel healthy? despite having a lot other stuff to work through in therapy, waiting and getting an idea of what men actually are, and getting treated poorly by men simply because I exist(not even trying to date them) grounded me really well for what to look for in a man. Highkey made me wish I was fully lesbian rather than bi but oh well, there's good men out there, the are just not common
Years ago I was considering transition, one of the rules when asking for medical intervention was that you had to dress and live for two years in your preferred gender before being considered. Which for me was a good thing to do.
i just dont think this is realistic when MANY trans girls talk about them dressing like a women but still in feeling uncomfortable when still having the body of a man. many dont feel comfortable until they see their body change into their gender they prefer
Its really not a good thing thats torture. This is so embarassing to look like a guy in a dress plus you can get harassed that doesn't make sense and its dysphoria inducing
THANK YOU! I came out to my parents at 13 in 1975. People like you didn't exist. I'm 61 and I have a lot more "moving parts" in my life. I'll figure it out. But thank you for your videos! 🩷
Love this video. I grew up playing with barbiedolls, throwing a blanket on and calling myself a princess. I always ( and still) feel kinda uncomfortable when ppl call me "man". BUT I am so happy that my parents never transitioned me or gave me puberty blockers. I still feel some of those things but I would never want to be anything else. I am happy they were right about you and you were in fact born in the wrong body, but I just wanna make sure kids struggling in todays climate AND their parents know, that they should let a kid finish up puberty before doing something that will change them forever. So again, good video
I would like to clarify. Trans people weren't born in the wrong body. They are not wrong. Because of such rhetoric, society perceives trans people as a "copy" of the original, does not respect them, etc. Everyone today changes themselves in accordance with their vibe, inner feeling, etc.; people dye their hair, have plastic surgery, etc. but for some reason it is trans people who are subject to hatred for changing their body. In fact, their sex simply does not imply the gender they feel and therefore they change their body to correspond to their felt gender. Trans women are males, and they are still women; this is absolutely normal and not wrong, a woman does not have to be female to be a woman.And the words about the fact that someone was born in the wrong body says/suggests that you need to be a female/bio woman to be a woman, otherwise you are "wrong" and this distances trans women from being considered women for who they are.(I understand that you didn’t mean anything wrong by saying this, I just wanted to go deeper into the meaning)
@@Miilka-o6b"trans women are males but they are still women" interesting that u said this, bc there's a condition where people presumed afab actually have male xy chromosomes but bc their body is basically "immune" to testosterone they just develop female secondary sex characteristisc like any afab with XX chromosomes, most of the time women with this condition don't found out that they have XY chromosomes until their early/late teens since their undeveloped testes start developing issues.However would you start calling these women/girls "men" bc they biologically have XY chromosomes??? No! This really just proved to me that trans people are valid if it's even a natural occurrence in nature, however whenever you tell transphobes this they'll just say that those conditions are rare and only 1 out of millions are born that way.
The trans community I feel is complex and hard to navigate because the community is a microcosm of the larger society in general through the many cultures, experiences, income levels, political ideologies, and traumas that make up the larger community. I'd say it is best to find a niche of the trans community that is where you are or understands where you are and where you're going. Always remember this as Adea stated, never transition for someone else and put yourself first.
I agree I’d say use your best judgement how do you feel some people do it for the appeal but it’s very much more than that it’s about assimilation the comfortability and your mannerisms and the thoughts
The problem is the way ppl look at transition, they see it as going full time, they focus on the medical and the like. Transition starts when you start questioning what you are and every step you take is part of the process and most of it is psychological, it is gaining the confidence in your decision , in yourself. The problem is lot of ppl skip this, they skip the emotional work, and jump into trying to get hrt. You need to explore, try presenting as you think you are in public. These days a lot of ppl dress at home, interact on the net/sm, and think they are doing the work bc someone tells them they look hot. My feeling was transition was a series of tests, where each step tells you more. HRT is a test, if the changes resonate with you, it is another step/ test. I have seen girls talking about ffs and grs before they even have been out as themselves. You also have to be ready for the hard parts, i see ppl on tik tok and you tube whining they got misgendered or 'triggered', crying it isnt fair. Guess what, this happens. I do agree that if you can find a way to be happy without going all the way and switch over to full time living, it may be worth staying at the point you are at and that is fine. There are ppl who live part time, and it works for them. It is a difficult process for most ppl, it is not to ge taken lightly. One of the big mistakes is assuming that transition and then going full time will magically cure all your problems, even if you are totally passable as a woman or even look really, really good. Growing up gender dysphoric can leave scars, depression, self doubt, paralyzing fears that wont magically be cured. There is a lot of antagonism to therapy which stems from the horrific experiences trans folks had back in the day, where a small cadre of 'experts' controlled the process and it was horrible ( among other things, their idea of trans authenticity was based in 1950s ideas of women). That is no longer true and the idea isnt to gatekeep but rather to make sure issues like depression or fears or emotional triggers are dealt with. The depression you have in your old self can be there in your new self. Transition to me is a process where you work on your emotions and physical self, throw away what is you, keep what is you, and then explore new things to go along with the new you.
U look absolutely gorgeous for one year hrt omg. Out of curiosity, what age did u start it because I'm just about to start my transition and am really worried I won't pass x
@@Livvy_xo I use to look bad when I put too much makeup on and was hyper-fem cause makes u more cocky at times. so defo dont over think it and have fun
When I first learned about what trans is my first thought was sth like "omg that's an option!?" but it took so long for me do connect the dots between that and insecurity / resenting girls I knew and saw. Once I realised I was in fact trans I was still on the fence about transitioning for fear and was balancing unhappiness for security. I'm glad now to be transitioning
Ayo I've seen Adea speak to animals one time and the only reason I was able to eaves drop is cause I hit a massive cone and my tinnitus reversed and I got super hearing for a few minutes while I was chilling on my mountain top but anyway they were sharing riddles with eachother like Adea and a deer and a literal Moose, idk how tf Adea figured out how to talk to Moose that actually kinda wigged me out plus the Moose was hella cryptic but it really sounded like they all knew eachother and had been talking for a long time so personally if I were ya'll I'd just smile and thank Adea for the video cause tbh she could probably be convincing your pet to kill you in your sleep if she got bored again who knows Thankyou Adea the people all chorus in perfect divine unison
My friend asked me for help because she was very confused with this but since i’m not trans I couldn’t give her any but ill be sending her this video :D
Funny, I went to my gender clinic expecting to get a diagnose "not transgender". I wanted to be a girl from a really young age, but always thought, other people are suffering way more than I do. After 2 hours consulting they found "classic transgender" and I started transition. It works for me. As for the liver, don't you have patches? I take Estradot 100mcg and heard, that it is way better for the liver. But I'm not a doctor, I was just wondering. Wish you all the best and good luck!
I think, if somebody’s questioning their gender, I think the first question they should ask themselves is, how do I feel about my genitals? I would ask them to think about how they feel being perceived as the opposite gender. I think these are two very important questions to ask oneself before transitioning because I see a lot of people who call themselves trans are not actually trans.
Hmm well at first I really did not like my génitals ( around 15-18) but now at 20 im pretty indifferent about it, if I had the choice to be born in a female body and start life all over again I définitely would take it, but for now I just want to get rid of the things that come with male puberty ie: broad shoulders, narrow hips, fat distribution to the belly ETC. Whenever I look at à male that's done developing, I look myself in the mirror and ask lyself "is this what I want?" NO I don't, I would much rather prefer to have female développement, I don't even care for boobs etc, I would just like to have a more female presenting body ie ( narrow waist ans wider hips etc)
I am in my late 20s and i have been really considering to medically transition but at the same time i am having doubts and fears that i will miss my old boy self. Been battling with those thoughtsfor a month now and yet i am not able to decide whether i really want to transition or not. Anyways, thanks for your video, it really is very informative
being trans is to in transition and complete the journey. with social media and stuff now days there are lots of AGP/transmaxxers who do it for a living like porn/fetishes and they are not transgender at all its all to keep up with the cool or hip fad right now. There were no trans kids in all 12 years i went to school because there was no internet and no outside influences to get people on board. By the way My grad year was 1995 came out in 1989 went full time in 2019. Don't pass yet, having FFS 10/9/24 but had SRS on 7/9/24 then VFS 4/21/25
You need to look at the actual science and not PinkNews' opinion on the science. I think the brain study is really flawed where they didn't correct for hormone use or possibly also not sexuality. The one thing I remember reading is that they looked at a small part of the brain that's supposedly different in size between female and male and that T are somehow closer to what they think they should have been, but I think it has all these flaws, and it's done post mortem, soooo. And you know what, as a biologist I know that there's no black/white difference between the sexes when it comes to brains, there might be a range of sizes if different areas, for instance. Seeing an area that is maybe more similar to the female average in a male doesn't mean he has a woman's brain, it just means he's not as close to the male average, but he's still male. It's not possible to have a female brain in a male body. Your brain is inside your body and you are male.
Thank you for the video. Women’s clothing have no gender. Gender is assigned to the clothing By design women’s clothing make you feel pretty That is a feeling not a gender I love being a man I also love wearing a dress on occasion If I transitioned it would be tragic
I don't mean this to sound like I am mad about my results but it's been crazy for me. Iv been on hrt for 2 months and my body is changing fast, is it weird to be overwhelmed with dealing with the public?
Amen 🙏 I’m in transition but I chose not to go on hormones I want to do surgery instead ❤️ and it’s hard cause I have no surgeries yet but I’m in the process I’m saving up money right now for implants and face surgery reconstruction
I will give this advice. If you have underlying mental health issues, you might only be fixing one of the surface issues. I've known people who transition because they think it will make everything better. Then they still had all those underlying issues. There really is no problem here. If gender is an issue, by all means, fix it. But if part of your reasoning for fixing it was to fix other issues you didn't realize were separate. You may not be getting all you bargain for and had you known that, you might have thought differently about transitioning. . Like buying a house you don't like 100%, but everyone says it's a great deal. And then you find out it wasn't even a great deal. Now you're stuck with a house you are not competent happy with and it's not even a great deal.
My wife strongly suggested I go on estrogen as I was into wearing dresses. When I was on estrogen, she noticed I was a lot calmer. When I was irritable, she would say something like, "John, you need to take your hormone". I am a lot happier with estrogen, and I no longer drink to excess. I take my estrogen by injection so I don't have liver problems. I have been on estrogen for over 12 years. I have acquired a feminine appearance, along with breasts with a bra cup size of DD. I wear dresses and present en femme all the time. I still regard myself as a man, and I sing second bass in my church choir. My dear wife passed away last year, and I sure would like to marry a loving woman. John
If you've been thinking about it for days? That should be most of your life. Not just days. You shouldn't be able to accurately count how long it's been on your mind.
I have news for you, not all people are the same. Some need more time, a month, a year or ten years. We are all unique and different, with different lives. Not only people who transition young are valid. Those that need more time are also valid.
@@Adeaof course, but the beginning was so out of place that it surprised me. Also coming from you. It's okay to take your time and think about it. It's not that easy for everyone.
Look up Julie Newmar and her lifestyle. The Lady has got it right. She's one smart cookie and I wish I knew more about her when I was young. At your age now you could start with your own makeup line. See what others have done like Jeffery Starr. Become a brand name sweetie!
I want to transition, at the same time I don’t. I envision having a wife and kids. I feel okay in my body as is. Honestly Really just want to be in heaven already so I don’t have to think like this anymore. God help me.
Adea, no hate but males and females do not have very different brains. There are some small differences, such as men tend to have a larger brain, men typically have more white matter. However there is overlap. There can be subtle differences but it's a vast difference as you implied. I'm certainly not questioning your identity, but the only study I've seen with any validity has only shown some change after long term cross sex hormones. Of course that would be expected. If it was as simple as you stated, a simple brain scan would validate someone's trans identity. There is not one test to confirm someone is trans.
It is not that simple. I am someone who was able to repress who I was for years. It was different thirty years ago. The word transgender did not exist. There was no Internet. The idea that a person could be born in the wrong body was preposterous. I finally started transitioning two years ago. It was like Adea says I had no choice. But, that does not mean I am not trans because when I was younger, even though I craved a woman's body, I did not transition. Back then, even the word transition did not exist - we used the expression going full-time if someone was serious about living opposite their birth gender. I had dysphoria then and still have it since I have to face the reality about how far I can get with my transition. The most important thing is I am accepting who I am and I can finally say I am a happy person. Even today there are so many reasons why someone does not transition and must find a way to cope with their dysphoria. Just because a person chooses not to transition does not mean they do not have the same feelings as those of us who began the process. Do not judge until you hear a person's full story.
im thinking myself a lot theses days about start doing it or no. i actually like and deslike being a man but i also would love SO MUCH TO be a woman. i wish to wear clothes and put make up and be so girly and also so cool but i dont know if it would fit nice on me i have real fear if i really would be nice or if some girl will like me. and i have scare if i be weird too... but i would love so much to start doing it and live the life that i want to live. but maybe ill just accept being a man and just that... i dont know.
@@IsaacRegalado i sure want to start with hormones but i also have fear of a life that i can lost in both ways i want to dress cute and be happy but its a long way to do that maybe i will just accept my faith and be a man, after i work and live as i want ill do therapy and see what is the truth.

I do want to pass, but to me that has a different meaning, and that is wanting 100% physical change and being the woman and feminine being I know I am, and have known I was since early childhood, and being able to suffer through all the sadness, hate, and pain to do it, willing to get all the surgeries, and go through everything until I'm my authentic self, no matter how long it takes!!!

Omg ur so stunning. What age did u start transitioning cos I'm about to start and am worried I won't pass
@@Livvy_xo aww thank you love. I started when I was 25, came off hormones after 5 months then started again when I was 27. I’m nearly 29 now. We all have that feeling but, the thing that did it for me was, can I continue to age as a male or do I start hormones and try to fix that. I would have rather not been here than to age as a male. Hope everything goes well for you in whatever you continue to do
@@Louurilwhy did u come off hormones? And tbh this is the dilemma im also having rn...whenever I see middle aged males I look at myself ( 20 years old who still hasn't finished puberty and mostly can pass for both genders for now) and ask myself do I really want to age like that? Losing hair overtime, storing more fat in your belly? Develop broad shoulders and narrow hips??? No!! Idec to be "viewed"as a woman specifically I just do not like what comes with the Développement of the male sex, that's why I don't care for having boobs or anything but would like to have wider hips or just store fat in there, lose muscle mass and just have softer skin
@@tsuyuasui7297 I came off hormones because I had a toxic boyfriend at the time who basically forced me off them.
To be honest, I kinda worded my previous comment a little badly. I’ve had gender dysphoria ever since I can remember, and the final straw to doing something about it was growing older as a man. I definitely wouldn’t be here if I was to not go through with it.
I really would advise to look into the effects of transition and taking hormones before you do start them if you don’t have gender dysphoria, there are a lot of other things that come with it that someone without dysphoria would not like.
@@tsuyuasui7297 girl start now
Your messages inspire, empower and rain down hope...I subscribed.
Your advice on men was very good especially for the younger girlies which will find it hard but if you have a good family support system they should protect you from those type of men! Mine had to step in and protect me. It’s confusing and hurtful because you’re taking higher than average estrogen /hrt so the attraction to men just rushes in your head since you are really activating those genes with hormone therapy.😮 just protect yourself! There’s lots of S/A that happens to us kinda girls we need to be careful ❤also choose your friends wisely they can set you up…. 😮or be jealous frenimies…it’s hard holding in your feelings sometimes for protection but it’s necessary .
So true!!!

I already started a couple of years ago, but I've been watching your vids since you started. I love that you're posting more often, queen.
Yayyy I love it too! I love my TH-cam people
Я очень хочу с тобой познакомится и переписыватся советоваться чтобы была моим консультантом❤@@Adea
I have to apologize, when i saw the first part of the video I got my back up a bit, because it sounded too much like ' if you aren't like me, young and pretty, didn't have the burning truth of 'I am trans', dont do it'. Your edit was really heartfelt, and leaving in the opening was smart, bc it shows how it is easy even for well meaning ppl to aay things that come out wrong. The key thing you did wss acknowledge that was your experience; w trans girls our stories are all different. I knew what trans was a long time ago, when I was questioning as a teen many decades ago . Already knew what was then called a tv and thought i was that (there also were signs that i wasn't, as well, that i didnt figure out, like why when I reverted back after dressing I felt so horrible; it was so bad I lived in tension, where i felt good about myself dressing up, but the pain of coming back was so bad it deterred me from dressing much).
I also spent a lot of time as a teen reading up on trans ppl, this was roughly the time Renee Richards came onto the scene,which was kind of strange if i id'ed as a crossdresser.
For people who have buried ut, there often isn't that Eureka moment, it took me years to work through the walls I put up emotionally. There is an expression that life is lived foreard but you understand it looking back. With me there were clues going back into early childhood, things that made no sense looked at individually but together unlocked emotions and helped me put it together
And thank you about the community, that there isnt one. There are a lot of groups or sects, there are those that if you dont meet their definition, you aren't trans and treat you as such. There are those who think you only should do as they do, which is just ego. There are bitter ppl who will look at Adea and say 'What do you know? You had it easy, you are young and beautiful, men will throw themselves at you, people will never clock you'....and not know how hard they had it trying to find themselves, rejection pf loved ones, abuse, you dont know.Easy is a relative thing, it may be easier to rransition if you are young and pretty, physucally, but it isnt easy.
With HRT agree. They do use natural hormones, or did ( premarin, estrace i believe) but they come from other sources , premarin was from mares, but most are synthetic. Any oral hormone puts a strain in the liver snd kidneys in processing it. Injectibles have the upside of going into the bloodstream, bypassing liver and kidneys, but they also cause mood swings on a huge scale and if not monitored properly can cause issues..patches are like injectibles but absorb through the skin so are slower. You also can take orals sub linguanally ( under the tongue) and that goes into the bloodstream, but idk how well that works. Health wise given what you are trying to do, the body is under a big load, it is not the same thing as a woman born that way, you are shifting basic biology. Drinking luts a large load on the body, so keeping alcohol moderate is inportant ( hard when many girls fiest experiences out can be clubs and bars). The other thing is smoking or vaping. With hrt of any kind there is the risk if blood clots and smoking/vaping makes it worse, much worse. Women born that way have an elevated risk of clots, women taking bc pills who smoke have a much bigger risk of heart attacks or strokes.
adea, the most valuable thing you said was in the end, it is aboot your hapiness with yourself. Transition is a journey that starts with that first question and ends when you feel happy with itself. Peolle think transition is about the end goal.of living as a woman ( or man), it isn't imo ( and that is all this is). Transition is a process to take someone unhappy with themselves and figuring out what you need. You might find being in hrt by itself works, where you might dress part time or be androgynous or whatever. You may go further, eveb get breast implants, but then again be part time. You might find early on you are okay with dressing up regularly,maybe get your beard and body hair removed to make ut easier or do low dose hormones even.
Wherever you stop, you likely will have changed for the better, whatever you decide you are or where you stop. Again, transition is a process of change , not the ultimate goal.
Trans Is beautiful Always and Forever 🏳️⚧️ be proud ok...be beautiful
Yess love this! As I explain it simply to people: Gener dysphoria is a mental illness transition alleviates those symptoms. People who are born trans NEED to transition to live a full and happy healthy life, not all those who transition ARE trans, even thought that is a small percentage of transitioned peoples (even fewer then actual trans people who transition who ARE trans but detransition due to societal/personal pressures/issues. if that makes sense typed lol.) Personally I always saw myself as a girl and it wasn't until seeing Jaz Jennings on that 20/20 special when I was a preteen did it click, however bc of my religious upbringing and society I didn't think was possible until my 20s. IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO TRANSTION. It's not easy and it takes time,, a whole life time even. but it is worth living ur truth then denying it
Gender Disphoria is not a mental illness.
Gender dysphoria is not a mental illness, it is gender variance due to brain biology likely, it is much like sexual identity is wired in the brain.
The reason it is important not to use mental illness is that is a loaded term used by the nasties to disparage that trans ppl are real and to deny them a legitimate existence. First word out of the mouth of conservatives is ' they are mentally ill ppl, they should be locked up or sedated'.
Same over here I have a very religious family and community, ive been thinking of taking HRT at 20, and since male puberty is so harsh I don't want to delay my transition any time further
@@tsuyuasui7297 so happy for you! Take your time, research as much as possible, every transition and story is different. I recommend that everyone find there nearest LGBTQ center for all the info and help in your transition, helped me 10 fold. (Also to move out here to califoornia! lol.

Thank you for your perspective, Adea. This is a great video. Please share more of your personal experiences. We love you❤
Starting hrt was the best decision I ever made. I feel so much happier and more my self than I have my entire life.for me absolutely the best!!
I'm slowly reaching my 6th trans anniversary and looking at the past years.
Transidendity was probably the least challenging part of my life. I came full-time that's it. The rest came in its time when it became obvious to do it without a particular plan. I have time as my goal to be full-time was already full filled.
On the other hand, bladder cancer was really challenging - the best place for trans people. It's a run against the clock: chemotherapy, immunotherapy and surgery should be completed in less than 6 months to have the best chance to win the battle against the 🦀. Thereafter I have to cope with annoying side effects plus living with Mrs Stomy.
Love this video sister, especially when you said that you will be ready when you love yourself
Yes ive been transitioning for about 8-9 months and she is sooooo right dolls dont mess with these men in the beginnings i would say wait 2 years or so too finally start experimenting cause these men will only treat you like a fetish and they will most likely leave you in the gutter, adea u have been such a amazing guide for me and u are doing justice for are community! 🏳️⚧️🫶🏼

Transition is super challenging, definitely not easy as people think it is... Even Cis-woman can be hateful to trans women who are more feminine than them. Great advice:) ❤
Hi Adea. I first heard of you thru Maya where you all did a Brain Rot episode together. Enjoyed your interview and look forward to seeing whatever videos you do on your own.

Hey Adea, tysm for making this video, luv you sm!
Ily too!!!
For myself - it was mainly about the quality of life - how will I survive - how will I make my livelihood … skills / talents / credentials… - I refused to end up in poverty ! - a situation that could trigger severe depression… be careful about what you wish for ..
I can so much relate to the things you've said. I'm into the transition for about 3 years now, taking hormones for a bit over a year. I'm going my way and it was the best thing I could ever do for myself. I'm single for more than 4 years now and I'm going all the steps all alone, but that's fine. Don't need anyone else. Btw, I'm 57. Thank you for this video. 🧚♀️💜😊

Hi, thank you for your video. You hit a lot of pints that I am going through ,I am transitioning now and had a lot of problems to with friends and family ,but most friends and work friends they couldn't understand why I wanted to transitioning into a woman, but I am the most happy person now in my life just ,love being a transgender woman now ps please keep making your videos love Denise Stirling
literally ateee. I am so glad I did not go around dating any men in the beginning. I'm around two years into my transition and finally generally passing and stable, and I notice that I just do not let shit pass when I am looking for a guy. Compared to my trans sisters, I just feel healthy? despite having a lot other stuff to work through in therapy, waiting and getting an idea of what men actually are, and getting treated poorly by men simply because I exist(not even trying to date them) grounded me really well for what to look for in a man. Highkey made me wish I was fully lesbian rather than bi but oh well, there's good men out there, the are just not common
Years ago I was considering transition, one of the rules when asking for medical intervention was that you had to dress and live for two years in your preferred gender before being considered. Which for me was a good thing to do.
i just dont think this is realistic when MANY trans girls talk about them dressing like a women but still in feeling uncomfortable when still having the body of a man. many dont feel comfortable until they see their body change into their gender they prefer
💯
Its really not a good thing thats torture. This is so embarassing to look like a guy in a dress plus you can get harassed that doesn't make sense and its dysphoria inducing
@@Adea ?
Yeah I believe this
This is really good advice and point of view. Has your point of view changed over time or has your journey had an effect?
Oh 100% i mean i was desperate for a bf in the beginning stage and i was treated so poorly! Wish someone would have told me what i know nos
Great video, thanks Adea! Any tips on weight loss and mental health are so much appreciated ❤
THANK YOU! I came out to my parents at 13 in 1975. People like you didn't exist. I'm 61 and I have a lot more "moving parts" in my life. I'll figure it out. But thank you for your videos! 🩷
This is actually a really nice video🙏🙏
Awe tysm
Love your videos, the end so true!!
You hit so many point on the head in me figuring out my own transition
❤
I’m still figuring out, I’m pretty sure I’m genderfluid, and you’re helping sm💕
Love this video. I grew up playing with barbiedolls, throwing a blanket on and calling myself a princess. I always ( and still) feel kinda uncomfortable when ppl call me "man".
BUT I am so happy that my parents never transitioned me or gave me puberty blockers. I still feel some of those things but I would never want to be anything else.
I am happy they were right about you and you were in fact born in the wrong body, but I just wanna make sure kids struggling in todays climate AND their parents know, that they should let a kid finish up puberty before doing something that will change them forever. So again, good video
!!!!
I would like to clarify. Trans people weren't born in the wrong body. They are not wrong. Because of such rhetoric, society perceives trans people as a "copy" of the original, does not respect them, etc. Everyone today changes themselves in accordance with their vibe, inner feeling, etc.; people dye their hair, have plastic surgery, etc. but for some reason it is trans people who are subject to hatred for changing their body. In fact, their sex simply does not imply the gender they feel and therefore they change their body to correspond to their felt gender. Trans women are males, and they are still women; this is absolutely normal and not wrong, a woman does not have to be female to be a woman.And the words about the fact that someone was born in the wrong body says/suggests that you need to be a female/bio woman to be a woman, otherwise you are "wrong" and this distances trans women from being considered women for who they are.(I understand that you didn’t mean anything wrong by saying this, I just wanted to go deeper into the meaning)
@@Miilka-o6b"trans women are males but they are still women" interesting that u said this, bc there's a condition where people presumed afab actually have male xy chromosomes but bc their body is basically "immune" to testosterone they just develop female secondary sex characteristisc like any afab with XX chromosomes, most of the time women with this condition don't found out that they have XY chromosomes until their early/late teens since their undeveloped testes start developing issues.However would you start calling these women/girls "men" bc they biologically have XY chromosomes??? No! This really just proved to me that trans people are valid if it's even a natural occurrence in nature, however whenever you tell transphobes this they'll just say that those conditions are rare and only 1 out of millions are born that way.
The trans community I feel is complex and hard to navigate because the community is a microcosm of the larger society in general through the many cultures, experiences, income levels, political ideologies, and traumas that make up the larger community. I'd say it is best to find a niche of the trans community that is where you are or understands where you are and where you're going. Always remember this as Adea stated, never transition for someone else and put yourself first.
I agree I’d say use your best judgement how do you feel some people do it for the appeal but it’s very much more than that it’s about assimilation the comfortability and your mannerisms and the thoughts
The problem is the way ppl look at transition, they see it as going full time, they focus on the medical and the like. Transition starts when you start questioning what you are and every step you take is part of the process and most of it is psychological, it is gaining the confidence in your decision , in yourself.
The problem is lot of ppl skip this, they skip the emotional work, and jump into trying to get hrt. You need to explore, try presenting as you think you are in public. These days a lot of ppl dress at home, interact on the net/sm, and think they are doing the work bc someone tells them they look hot.
My feeling was transition was a series of tests, where each step tells you more. HRT is a test, if the changes resonate with you, it is another step/ test.
I have seen girls talking about ffs and grs before they even have been out as themselves.
You also have to be ready for the hard parts, i see ppl on tik tok and you tube whining they got misgendered or 'triggered', crying it isnt fair. Guess what, this happens.
I do agree that if you can find a way to be happy without going all the way and switch over to full time living, it may be worth staying at the point you are at and that is fine. There are ppl who live part time, and it works for them. It is a difficult process for most ppl, it is not to ge taken lightly.
One of the big mistakes is assuming that transition and then going full time will magically cure all your problems, even if you are totally passable as a woman or even look really, really good.
Growing up gender dysphoric can leave scars, depression, self doubt, paralyzing fears that wont magically be cured.
There is a lot of antagonism to therapy which stems from the horrific experiences trans folks had back in the day, where a small cadre of 'experts' controlled the process and it was horrible ( among other things, their idea of trans authenticity was based in 1950s ideas of women). That is no longer true and the idea isnt to gatekeep but rather to make sure issues like depression or fears or emotional triggers are dealt with. The depression you have in your old self can be there in your new self. Transition to me is a process where you work on your emotions and physical self, throw away what is you, keep what is you, and then explore new things to go along with the new you.
You are such a beauty ❤
You are so intelligent and lovely. Well done and good luck.
i started HRT a year ago and to any new dolls.. DONT DATE just focus on u. and stay the fuk away from grindr lol
Grindr is SO toxic!!
U look absolutely gorgeous for one year hrt omg. Out of curiosity, what age did u start it because I'm just about to start my transition and am really worried I won't pass x
@@Livvy_xo i’m 25👉🏻👈🏻
@kiwievie omg no way so u started hrt at 24 and are that pretty!!!!
@@Livvy_xo I use to look bad when I put too much makeup on and was hyper-fem cause makes u more cocky at times. so defo dont over think it and have fun
When I first learned about what trans is my first thought was sth like "omg that's an option!?" but it took so long for me do connect the dots between that and insecurity / resenting girls I knew and saw. Once I realised I was in fact trans I was still on the fence about transitioning for fear and was balancing unhappiness for security. I'm glad now to be transitioning
Look I'm just into you,your energy,your vibe.I don't care about this stuff.You be u.I love all your videos.
Ayo I've seen Adea speak to animals one time and the only reason I was able to eaves drop is cause I hit a massive cone and my tinnitus reversed and I got super hearing for a few minutes while I was chilling on my mountain top but anyway they were sharing riddles with eachother like Adea and a deer and a literal Moose, idk how tf Adea figured out how to talk to Moose that actually kinda wigged me out plus the Moose was hella cryptic but it really sounded like they all knew eachother and had been talking for a long time so personally if I were ya'll I'd just smile and thank Adea for the video cause tbh she could probably be convincing your pet to kill you in your sleep if she got bored again who knows
Thankyou Adea the people all chorus in perfect divine unison
Thank you❤

My friend asked me for help because she was very confused with this but since i’m not trans I couldn’t give her any but ill be sending her this video :D
Don't worry I've never dated. So I am focused on my own transition.
Funny, I went to my gender clinic expecting to get a diagnose "not transgender". I wanted to be a girl from a really young age, but always thought, other people are suffering way more than I do. After 2 hours consulting they found "classic transgender" and I started transition. It works for me.
As for the liver, don't you have patches? I take Estradot 100mcg and heard, that it is way better for the liver. But I'm not a doctor, I was just wondering.
Wish you all the best and good luck!
reminder for me: only start dating when I love myself💖
I think, if somebody’s questioning their gender, I think the first question they should ask themselves is, how do I feel about my genitals? I would ask them to think about how they feel being perceived as the opposite gender. I think these are two very important questions to ask oneself before transitioning because I see a lot of people who call themselves trans are not actually trans.
Hmm well at first I really did not like my génitals ( around 15-18) but now at 20 im pretty indifferent about it, if I had the choice to be born in a female body and start life all over again I définitely would take it, but for now I just want to get rid of the things that come with male puberty ie: broad shoulders, narrow hips, fat distribution to the belly ETC. Whenever I look at à male that's done developing, I look myself in the mirror and ask lyself "is this what I want?" NO I don't, I would much rather prefer to have female développement, I don't even care for boobs etc, I would just like to have a more female presenting body ie ( narrow waist ans wider hips etc)
Make the health routine!!!!!
Okay!!!
I am in my late 20s and i have been really considering to medically transition but at the same time i am having doubts and fears that i will miss my old boy self. Been battling with those thoughtsfor a month now and yet i am not able to decide whether i really want to transition or not. Anyways, thanks for your video, it really is very informative
Wake up bae posted
Haha
off topic but i love your jacket where is it from 😭🙏
being trans is to in transition and complete the journey. with social media and stuff now days there are lots of AGP/transmaxxers who do it for a living like porn/fetishes and they are not transgender at all its all to keep up with the cool or hip fad right now. There were no trans kids in all 12 years i went to school because there was no internet and no outside influences to get people on board. By the way My grad year was 1995 came out in 1989 went full time in 2019. Don't pass yet, having FFS 10/9/24 but had SRS on 7/9/24 then VFS 4/21/25
You came out as trans 30 years before you transitioned? Respectfully, that’s wild.
ugh im so early into this transition like i still cant get over taking meds for the rest of my life UGH i feel so behind
Meds or drugs

You need to look at the actual science and not PinkNews' opinion on the science. I think the brain study is really flawed where they didn't correct for hormone use or possibly also not sexuality. The one thing I remember reading is that they looked at a small part of the brain that's supposedly different in size between female and male and that T are somehow closer to what they think they should have been, but I think it has all these flaws, and it's done post mortem, soooo. And you know what, as a biologist I know that there's no black/white difference between the sexes when it comes to brains, there might be a range of sizes if different areas, for instance. Seeing an area that is maybe more similar to the female average in a male doesn't mean he has a woman's brain, it just means he's not as close to the male average, but he's still male. It's not possible to have a female brain in a male body. Your brain is inside your body and you are male.
where's the jacket from?? the ribbon details/laces are so cute
Well beauty is in the eyes of the beholder
Thank you for the video. Women’s clothing have no gender. Gender is assigned to the clothing By design women’s clothing make you feel pretty That is a feeling not a gender I love being a man I also love wearing a dress on occasion If I transitioned it would be tragic
How much is a bbl?
Lmaoo 😂
I don't mean this to sound like I am mad about my results but it's been crazy for me. Iv been on hrt for 2 months and my body is changing fast, is it weird to be overwhelmed with dealing with the public?
Amen 🙏 I’m in transition but I chose not to go on hormones I want to do surgery instead ❤️ and it’s hard cause I have no surgeries yet but I’m in the process I’m saving up money right now for implants and face surgery reconstruction
Why no hormones? ? Not even blockers? You might look uncanny
I will give this advice. If you have underlying mental health issues, you might only be fixing one of the surface issues. I've known people who transition because they think it will make everything better. Then they still had all those underlying issues.
There really is no problem here. If gender is an issue, by all means, fix it. But if part of your reasoning for fixing it was to fix other issues you didn't realize were separate. You may not be getting all you bargain for and had you known that, you might have thought differently about transitioning. .
Like buying a house you don't like 100%, but everyone says it's a great deal. And then you find out it wasn't even a great deal. Now you're stuck with a house you are not competent happy with and it's not even a great deal.
My wife strongly suggested I go on estrogen as I was into wearing dresses. When I was on estrogen, she noticed I was a lot calmer. When I was irritable, she would say something like, "John, you need to take your hormone".
I am a lot happier with estrogen, and I no longer drink to excess. I take my estrogen by injection so I don't have liver problems. I have been on estrogen for over 12 years.
I have acquired a feminine appearance, along with breasts with a bra cup size of DD.
I wear dresses and present en femme all the time.
I still regard myself as a man, and I sing second bass in my church choir. My dear wife passed away last year, and I sure would like to marry a loving woman.

If you've been thinking about it for days? That should be most of your life. Not just days. You shouldn't be able to accurately count how long it's been on your mind.
Damn! I clicked thinking you were gonna talk about fitting the tone and mood of videos using transitions...
I have news for you, not all people are the same. Some need more time, a month, a year or ten years. We are all unique and different, with different lives. Not only people who transition young are valid. Those that need more time are also valid.
Did you watch the video babe?
@@Adeaof course, but the beginning was so out of place that it surprised me. Also coming from you. It's okay to take your time and think about it. It's not that easy for everyone.
Spoken god’s word. ❤ I agree a lot with this.
Look up Julie Newmar and her lifestyle. The Lady has got it right. She's one smart cookie and I wish I knew more about her when I was young. At your age now you could start with your own makeup line. See what others have done like Jeffery Starr. Become a brand name sweetie!
Where can I get that jacket????
Namedcollective
U were not egotistic … it’s true !
All I see and hear is sweeeeet :)
I want to transition, at the same time I don’t. I envision having a wife and kids. I feel okay in my body as is. Honestly Really just want to be in heaven already so I don’t have to think like this anymore. God help me.

You are Gorgeous! 😍😍😍😍
Adea, no hate but males and females do not have very different brains. There are some small differences, such as men tend to have a larger brain, men typically have more white matter. However there is overlap. There can be subtle differences but it's a vast difference as you implied. I'm certainly not questioning your identity, but the only study I've seen with any validity has only shown some change after long term cross sex hormones. Of course that would be expected. If it was as simple as you stated, a simple brain scan would validate someone's trans identity. There is not one test to confirm someone is trans.
Brain scans do show differences. Have you never been on a date before if you say men and women's brains are not different?
It is not that simple. I am someone who was able to repress who I was for years. It was different thirty years ago. The word transgender did not exist. There was no Internet. The idea that a person could be born in the wrong body was preposterous.
I finally started transitioning two years ago. It was like Adea says I had no choice. But, that does not mean I am not trans because when I was younger, even though I craved a woman's body, I did not transition. Back then, even the word transition did not exist - we used the expression going full-time if someone was serious about living opposite their birth gender. I had dysphoria then and still have it since I have to face the reality about how far I can get with my transition. The most important thing is I am accepting who I am and I can finally say I am a happy person.
Even today there are so many reasons why someone does not transition and must find a way to cope with their dysphoria. Just because a person chooses not to transition does not mean they do not have the same feelings as those of us who began the process. Do not judge until you hear a person's full story.
I love you so very much Adea
What do you call a straight guy who says Adea isn't cute as hell??? Answer in reply.
A fuckin' Liar 😀
im thinking myself a lot theses days about start doing it or no.
i actually like and deslike being a man but i also would love SO MUCH TO be a woman.
i wish to wear clothes and put make up and be so girly and also so cool but i dont know if it would fit nice on me
i have real fear if i really would be nice or if some girl will like me.
and i have scare if i be weird too... but
i would love so much to start doing it and live the life that i want to live.
but maybe ill just accept being a man and just that... i dont know.
I know exactly how you feel. Life is heavy right now.
Constantly telling myself to stay strong and carry on
@@IsaacRegalado i sure want to start with hormones but
i also have fear of a life that i can lost in both ways
i want to dress cute and be happy but its a long way to do that
maybe i will just accept my faith and be a man, after i work and live as i want ill do therapy and see what is the truth.
Yeah job transitioning is hard. Trying to find something that fits.
