hi! (ftm 19, on T for 1yr 4months) basically what the title is asking.

i have had several facial piercings myself, 14 over the years if im counting right. right now i only have my spetum, nose rings, lips, a handful more still in. though… i want my downstairs area to be pierced now. im an incredibly nervous guy and dont know how to just ask around, so im asking here first, see if it’s something i’ll even be comfortable asking. i want to know how other people got their piercings done. im thinking a triangle of a HCH… pain level? howd you go about asking the piercer? issue of rejection? anything to know. howd to go about a piercer even being comfortable to do that?

my tdick is currently 1.5in so im not sure if that’d be an issue either… really anything about the whole process would be helpful.

i also live in HTX, if that gives a bit more context.

I am interested in getting a Frenum piercing, but I am not sure if anything like this has been done before. I am interested in this piercing as a way to make my tdick look more like a natal penis. I have been on testosterone for over 2 years and have had a decent amount of bottom growth. My tdick looks like it has the anatomy that would be required for the piercing, but I have not been able to find any information on it actually being done on someone with my anatomy.

Has anyone heard of a piercing like this being done?

Hello, I just joined and need your kind advice from personal experience. So, I am a transmasc on TRT and am considering taking Finastride (recommended by the doctor) to reverse hair loss that's becoming unbearable for me. I plan to do both Finastride and Minoxidil and monitor progress. The former to prevent further hair loss while the latter to promote hair growth.

Research says 'Breast tenderness or enlargement is a recognised finasteride side effect, but the risk after top surgery isn't known.' Can any trans male bro please verify if this is a valid side effect and how bad is it?

As well as how confirmed are side effects of mood swings, depression and loss of libido?

🙏🏼 Thank you much for your kind help.

Had em just over a week now (pierced on the12th) and the swelling is starting to really chill out. No more bleeding at all. Only occasional discomfort if I sit on em weird. They look sooooooooo good and have helped a lot with my bottom dysphoria. I’m already thinking about getting myself some more genital piercings. Like, I’d go literally tomorrow if finances weren’t a concern. I love all my other piercings but these have gotta be my favorites so far.

hey guys! i’ve been on T for about 2 years and ive had about an inch and a half of bottom growth. i want to get either my vch or triangle pierced but i dont want it to migrate. how long should i wait before my bottom growth stagnates? will future bottom growth cause the piercing(s) to migrate? i haven’t had any notable growth in the last 6ish months. i’ve never had a genital piercing before so i’m a bit hesitant to get something i’ll have to take out in a few months lol.

(I don't wear this jewelry in the vch normally, it's just for play because I don't want the weight to make it migrate. Normally I wear a tunnel)

Got my triangle to 6g!!! Still getting used to how big the ball is. Getting my outer labias done this month so they sit above the triangle. Would love to hear people's experiences with this especially pain and healing. Most things I've seen on reddit are scary haha. Also have nipple grafts pierced and hope they can both handle rings (the one with the barbell is still healing from not being downsized soon enough). If they can take rings I hope to stretch them to six as well.

I used my piercings to lock the cage in place btw

So i had just got my tongue split 6 days ago, i had taken out the stitches and everything seems to be fine! however whenever something touches like my sublingual area (be it food or a cold/hot liquid) or whenever i try moving it around, some pain shoots into my mouth, i know the tongue hasnt had time to fully heal yet, but i am curious to those and others that have had it done, has that area ever been sensitive when done, and does it die down as it heals/when its fully healed?

I had my nipples pierced, 4 years ago, got them out, (thinking on re do them), but i think a lorum with a gold pointed hoop could make a cute addition to my foo lions

Luna moth and mugwort tummy piece is pretty new, I’m so glad the hair is growing back! Yes it’s crooked, I have double curve scoliosis so nothing about me is straight 🤪
12g nipples, pierced diagonally
12g HCH, 2 weeks old. I’m planning on getting two more to make a ladder. First pic of it is hard and stretched, 3rd is soft and chillin, and 4th is stretched with the ring flipped up out of the way.

Friendly nonsexual comments welcome. If you see something up w my piercings do let me know!

hey, I'm FTM and want to get a VCH. I'm a big cyclist (don't drive lol) and want to hear about your experiences re: irritation and cycling... I have a horrible saddle I could change out but I wouldn't know where to start with that either. TIA 💋💋💋💋

Body Mod artist I follow on instagram posted these and Google only brought up clitoral reductions. Anyone have this or have more information on this? Would love to see more!

Hey y'all, I'm on the hunt for a trans-friendly/specialized surgeon to do a simple release meta. Any recommendations for people who have had that surgery done in AZ, NV, or CA areas?

I was in Seattle for a few days and couldn’t leave without a little souvenir for myself! Done by Lynn Loheide at Nexus-1,000,000/10 experience, would definitely make a trip to see them again!

After many struggles I’m finally a 4g and am almost done with my face setup - thinking about a vertical labret, maybe high nostrils or just secondary nostril piercings. My bridge is 4mo old and is still migrating a bit (complete with an irritation bump…) so I want to see how that settles before I get anything else done. Next up is a VCH and my post-op grafted nipples after my surgeon clears me for them!

So the long and short of it is that I got a triangle piercing in Feb 2025 and have abstained from all sexual contact (solo or partnered) since then to give the piercing the best chance to heal. Unfortunately, that wasn't enough and I had to take it out yesterday, due to all the granulation and irritation. Thankfully, my piercer says we might be able to try again in 3 months to repierce it or substitute for dukes or smth

My question is; how soon after having it removed could I be having sex/masturbating again? I really want to be gentle with the tissues and give them the best shot at healing possible, so we can try again later-- but also a man has needs. Is it worth abstaining for the 3 months to let the tissues heal?

I love it so much

hi y'all! i'm a 21 y/o trans guy who has wanted nipple piercings for a bit now. i've been on T for almost three years and my doctor has brought up getting me a referral for top surgery a few times, which is something i've wanted since before i even realized i was trans (as i'm sure many can relate lol) but didn't have the financial means to seriously pursue until recently.

at this point in my transition, though, i'm very lucky to not feel a ton of dysphoria around my body itself in my day-to-day, and have gotten really into body mods and style as a means of expressing myself instead of just going for "looking like a guy" which has proven way more beneficial for my mental health and self-image – again, i'm sure some of you can relate.

i've always thought i would just get top surgery and see what i had to work with post-op, but now that i'm not as disgusted by my body i've been looking at different possible routes/solutions that might let me have the mods AND the body i want. i know there are different types of top surgery that leave patients with different degrees of sensation/structure. i'm also a bigger guy and honestly might be happy with a radical reduction depending on the results – i already know i don't want a 100% flat chest for that reason so it might even be a better option. obviously these are all things i'd talk about with my doctor and any surgeons i look into, but first i wanted to see if anyone has any experiences that could help me get a better idea of what to ask about and what my options are. to be clear, i do want top surgery, but while i'm semi-comfortable living in the body i have i want to explore my options.

specifically, here's what i'm wondering about:
1. experiences with getting nipples pierced post-op, regardless of surgery type
2. experiences with getting top surgery with nipples already pierced

sorry about the essay, i'm horrendous at being concise. also i'm not AI i just like dashes.

tldr: looking to hear about experiences getting top surgery with nipple piercings, or of piercing them post-op.

Hi yall!
I got an HCH on Saturday with a 12g curved barbell (done by an APP piercer). I intend to have two more to create a ladder look with CBRs.

I have some concerns with my current curved barbell. It seems really big and it slides all the way to one side as soon as I stop stretching the skin up (pic 3). It also sometimes flips up and bridges between my “crease”. Second picture is a sizer ring (12g 12mm) to show how a ring would lay.

It’s a bit uncomfortable to walk and sit as expected, but mainly I’m worried about ripping my dick. Should I get to my college town APP to get it changed? Is there any cause for concern or am I just tripping?

Masc anatomy terms only please, you can get creative with it (foreskin, balls, dick wings etc).

TIA!

I (26NB) have had my nipples pierced for about 3 1/2 years now with no issues until recently. I started T in January, and haven’t noticed any visible changes to my chest or nipples, but my nipple piercings are suddenly starting to migrate very quickly. I’ve heard about that happening with genital piercings, but not so much other ones. I’m super emotionally attached to them because they make the dysphoria around my chest go away, so I definitely want to get them redone in the future. I’m sure it’s probably T related, but I’m curious if anyone else has had the same problem? They were pierced at a 12g-should I try a larger gauge in the future?

I am post simple meta (no UL). Is there a piercer that would do this piercing? Does anyone have any experience with this piercing? Does anyone have any recommendations of a piercer who could do this piercing near NYC?
