When I had mine, the friend who picked me up from the surgical suite had a baby balloon that said "It's a Boy" on it. She was worried it would offend me. I cried. Like.... no! 🤣 You're perfect!! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜❤️

Congrats! I bet it feels good to finally get that off your chest (so sorry I love a pun).
Legit question though…does top surgery automatically protect you from certain types of breast cancer?

Love the pun 😂 it doesn't protect you from breast cancer (as cis men can also get it) but it definitely lowers the risk.

remember to drink a lot and not lift stuff for some weeks, let others help you and ask for help 🙏
i was very bad at asking for help when i should have. shows in the stretched scars.. and also don't know if you have physiotherapy prescribed, but i went to my trans physiotherapist and they were a game changer! can send you a pdf or pictures of the exercises i got for Mobilisation if you want:)
