Binder

Nil

Can anyone tell me where can I buy binders and which type of binder to buy?

Kavyaa

Nil you can buy bindi from Novelty Store.
You can also buy from street sellers.
Go with confidence for buying.
Buy small bindi of various colour so you can match it with your dress.

By some dimond bindi for heavy dress, saree n chaniya choli.

Generally 5 to 10 per packet of Bindi.

Kavyaa Actually I was not asking about bindi I was asking about chest binder 😅

Kevin97

Nil actually it's another number of chest binder supplier, they also reply if we send a WhatsApp message

Nil

Kevin97 great thanks, do you use binder too? Well I'm gonna buy my first binder so can you suggest which type of binder should I buy

Kevin97

Nil yes I'm also transmale and using binder from past few years, first i brought half binder it made my chest flat but, the stomach fat shifted to waist and it was looking awkward. later i choosed using full binder it was helpful.

If you are thin and no belly fat then half binder will work, if you're having belly fat and side fat then it will make uncomfortable and you can't bend feels uneasy, then you should go for full binder

Nil

Kevin97 thanks for the suggestions I will definitely buy full binder,
Have you started your transition process, like HRT or name change

Kevin97

Nil yes i have started HRT and recently getting info on name changing will start name changing procedure soon.

What about you? You're from?

Nil

Kevin97 I haven't started any changing process cause of financial issues but I've came out to my mom and she's good with me, I'm from Kolkata
You have insta? We can connect with their

Kevin97

Nil nope i haven't created insta yet.

Nil

Kevin97 well that's okay, You've started HRT then you have GID certificate I really wanna know what type of questions does the psychiatrist asks, I'm really scared about opening up to someone else🥲

TokumeiM

Nil They generally ask things like since when did you know you're trans, are your parents supportive, are you financially independent, do you have any mental health conditions. Some questions will be different here and there depending on what the psychiatrist thinks is necessary to ask you.
Remember to look for a trans friendly psychiatrist!

Nil

TokumeiM Great thanks, have you started your transition process like HRT or any surgery till now? If you did can you tell me how much HRT can cost

Kevin97

Nil testestrone starts from 100mg and slow they will increase the dose the starting price is from 226/- and as dose increase the price will increase which will cost upto 450 or 500/-. Every month one injection.

As for psychiatrist counselling i myself opened up about my feelings and they will ask from how long i am feeling like this. Basically normal dysphoria related stuff nothing to worry about.

TokumeiM

Nil I've currently been on testosterone for just over 1 year now. I take gel, not shots- gel is much more expensive than injections but the majority of people don't need to use gel.
Hoping to have my top surgery in the coming years.

Nil

Kevin97 Thank you for the information
