Stopping Hormones

[Revan]

Just really curious if there's any way to stop the whole puberty thing really ... I know there's medicine and things but I'm still not sure about it and I don't want any facial hair or anything, so just anything to stop it really. Oh and I'm 16 and look like a girl, heh yay ^^ but if I start looking like a boy I probably will end up killing myself, so just any advice please.

[Elscire]

i don't think thats possible unless you casterate yourself.

[Revan]

heh wicked thanks ^^ although honestly I don't know what it even means, heh if you like ate food high in estrogen would it just kind of balance it all out?

....you need to see a shrink

[Revan]

Yeah I know I did before but was totally pointless, heh I have OCD too and it's got a lot of things that you know make it impossible to get a new psychiatrist, so until then I have to find some way of totally making sure I don't end up looking like a boy.

[John_McC]

no idea but i think you should just let it flow instead of messing with your body

[John_McC]

why don't you want to look like a boy?

[Latino_Teen]

ok so ur a boy... and u dont want to be a boy? u wanty to be a girl? ok im not saying thats weird but r u str8 or gay or what? cause like everyone needs to go through puberty no matter what. u can ahve a sex change idk when u grow up but u will always be a guy no matter what

Erm, well to do that yuo need a historectomy (sp?) Which means removing ur testicles / ovaries.

From what you've said it sounds like you probably have some kind of gender identity issue. People need to understand gender and sexual diversity and accept that some people may be transgender/transsexual... While yor worries aren't "normal", they're not completely uncommon. There are treatments to allow adult men to become women, such as hormone therapy and even surgery, but any of these will only be administered by a doctor and after a very extensive psychological evaluation, even then only to an adult. I've heard many stories of confused teens in your situation, but you really do need counselling. The type of help is way beyond the ability of your average shrink though, so you will probably need to get a referral to someone who specializes in gender identity issues. It also might help you to look for a trans support message board so you could talk to other people who are going/have gone through the same stuff as you. Hope I was able to help a bit :)

He's a male therefore you would be referring to castration, the removal of the testicles. I can't imagine any medical practitioner in a civilized nation performing such a procedure on a teenager. A hysterectomy refers to the surgical removal of the uterus and/or cervix in a female.

(just my $0.02 worth)

Listen to her.
There was this situation in engalnd though where a 14year old boy(around that age) wanted a sex change. After long legal battles the he/they won the right have the threapy.
The therapy was something that stopped him going through puberty. Then a 16 they would give him does of female hormones so he basiclly turned female. Then they would do the operation to turn his stick into a hole at a much later date.

Please carefully read my entire post rather than mis-quoting a portion thereof. I highly doubt the therapy you speak of was that of castration, rather hormonal and pharmaceutical in nature. My post you quoted refers to the seemingly barbarous act of physical castration, more specifically the mechanical removal of the boys testes. I put careful thought into my replies...in the future it would serve you well to do the same.

Stop trying to use big words and advanced english because you are misusing words and your posts don't make sense in parts.
I didn't mis-quote you as I was refering to the removla of the his testes. I then went on to talk about hormonal therapy.
I excpect your apology on my desk by tommorow morning.:P

An apology is not in order. My vocabulary, while perhaps "advanced", and laden with "big words" merely serves to reflect my pattern of speech. I would appreciate if you could state incidence and example of my purported misuse of words and nonsensical parts of speech so that we may clarify the situation.

AIGHT!

Please carefully read my entire post rather than mis-quoting a portion thereof (that dosent make sense). I highly doubt the therapy you speak of was that of (no need) castration, rather hormonal and pharmaceutical in nature (no need fo that). My post you quoted refers to the seemingly barbarous act of physical castration, more specifically the mechanical removal of the boys testes.( castration is excatlly that, so why repeat yourself?) I put careful thought into my replies...in the future it would serve you well to do the same.

My vocabulary, while perhaps "advanced", and laden with "big words" (laden means with great quantity, I would not say that your posts had many 'big words') merely serves to( no need for that as it is un-needed) reflect my pattern of speech. I would appreciate if you could state incidence (the rate or range of occurrence or influence of something- so you using it there dosen't make sense) and example of my purported misuse of words and nonsensical parts of speech so that we may clarify the situation. (Already done, talk about PMS.)
AIGHT!
