Vaginal Changes on Testosterone  

Dr. Ben, you are an inspiration. As a trans man, it is so meaningful to me to see representation in the medical field. Thank you for sharing this information.

PLEASE PLEASE I love this medically-focused trans content!! I'd particularly love it if they were structured like classes, I'd pay for that!!! I'm a trans man student in the health area, not medicine, though, but I'm very interested in knowing about how the body works. I trust a trans man speaking about ftm hrt, more than any other source.

thank you for the information! it's hard to find good, medical videos on lesser-known transgender issues. also, that's so cool to see a trans MD! I am a ftm nursing student :)

As a trans guy 11 months on T I keep struggling with lower abdomen pain. It feels like the pain you get when your period is about to start but the pain is often really damn strong. I haven't had my period in a solid year because of progesteron pills I still continue taking to this day as contraception. I'm scared of going to the gynaecologist and with top surgery right around the corner (literally) I'm just very anxious about everything rn, being a nervous wreck so I feel like I'm overthinking things

This video is so incredibly helpful, thank you for sharing the information that you do

So great you're making these videos and putting the information out there :)

Thanks for the informative video!

I am nearly a year out on testosterone and loving it. I do have some atrophy and other negative changes as mentioned here, but at my next appointment I will be asking about topical estrogen to manage those symptoms. Some trans women also take topical testosterone to keep genital atrophy at a minimum, so it isn't crazy for me to hear that the reverse is also a common option taken.

I am officially in love with your videos- These helps so much-AND WE HAVE THE SAME NAME!(Well I go with Benjamin, Ben, and Benny)

Thanks for this video! I’m a trans man and I have my first gender clinic appointment in two weeks

this man is a sweetheart omg!!!

thank you for this super informative video! can you share some of the research for this video so i can check it out in more detail?

Thanks. I am taking testosterone for energy and life libido. But I’m close to perimenopause probly. I am using topical progesterone also. But believe I need to use the topical estrogen that I have as well

HIIII ! i'm an enby transmasc person who's about to start T, i'm also Bipolar and on Mood regulation pills (Quietiapine). Can Testosterone and my treatment cause some bad mix symptoms, are they compatible ? (thanks in advance if you answer)

FYI, bacterial vaginosis is a vaginal infection yes but it’s bacteria and yeast is a fungus. A yeast infection is completely different from bacterial vaginosis and are you really a doctor because you should know that

great video! I'm surprised that topical estrogen only has effects in the area applied. wouldn't a hormone have to get into the blood stream to have an effect and then once in blood stream, could have effects everywhere. it's absorbed in through the skin and gets to the relevant tissues but not via blood? any thoughts?

Such a great video! Keep it up Doctor Ben Haseen!!

hey, as a transgender man i had some questions about some things i think youd know better about as a doctor and trans man yourself. but theres no way of contacting you anywhere so im just leaving this here. i understand we have a risk, trans or otherwise for cervical cancer. i, and probably many other trans guys dont see myself getting tested cause its too much anxiety and dysphoria. especially where im from, being trans is extremely uncommon. so, with that being said as a trans guy and doctor yourself whats your experience ? do you get tested regularly ? and would you recommend something like a hysterectomy and trachelectomy to remove the cervix and uterus altogether to prevent cancer in the future ?

This vid is helpful as I suspect I may have atrophy. Im just wondering, as a trans doctor what is your opinion on transmedicalism? Do you believe dysphoria is the inate condition which makes us trans, or something else?

Would love to see you on the Trans Atlantic Call In Show with your name twin 💙

Thank you Dr .Ben

Been very curious about this as someone with vaginismus

Video actually starts at 1:00

So helpful!!

Hello! My 13 yr friend is going to be taking testosterone soon. I really want to take some as well, I want all effects from it apart from facial hair and a too deep voice. Is there any type of testosterone you know that can do that? :) I’m ((13-16))

Does testosterone make your eyebrows grow thick?

where to buy testosterone?

bro yeast infections and bv are NOT the same thing

You should also explain that gender identity is not the same as sexual orientation, Also you should also mention vigianal an trophy if you haven't had an hysterectomy

Im not trans anything but i used to be a CMA, & a CPT. This topic is very interesting tho-regardless of my profession or preference. As a Mom (my kids are in their 30s tho, so maybe im now n exmom, like the cma & cpt titles?? 😆Lol n ! i no thats not true, im jk) i imagine raising a child dealing w this ... We all no how blunt kids can be. Sometimes (actually --most times) theyre so blunt. Alot of times they can really scar us deeply! So often r issues as adults, come from the stuff done to us when we were kids. Id probably have such a hard time rearing a child who faced trangender. I was a lil bit crazy protective over my kids. Smh somebody messin' w my kid?!!? 🤯💔😖 Not a good idea! Id probably end up in trouble smh not good. More than that issue tho would likely be feeling like Id failed my child. Mommys wear an exceptionally cool cape! We fix everything! Everything!! We always make r child's life easier or at least more manageable... From kissin' booboos to changing bicycle tires and gluing tea sets back together-- we fix it all!! Not being able to "fix" the issues going in hormonally and physically would just kill me inside. Sure-id utilize the doctor, and hopefully shed treat my child successfully but... It's not the same as Mommy'jng the situation.

People trying to say rhey know more then this guy who probably has 8+ years of schooling and hands on experience with patients and himself. Humble yourselfs. 😂

Clinics don't pay for ongoing data collection or want to know about detransitioners- thats why they get abuse on socials. It's bad for business. They had a whole conference in the States recently though with loads of them there because it's a big problem now. I know many just in my area because I work in mental health.

My friend regrets their transition. After doing research I understand why. They said they’re body has gone through changes that have had long lasting effects they can never undo. sad

Why didn't you mention the vaginal attrophy and sepsis that Buck Angel experienced and nearly died from? If you're going to offer medical advice, at least tell the truth. Otherwise, your channels is a disservice.

Dude you need a therapist, not a doctor

Seems pretty bashful to be a doctor.
