Help Juna Get Surgeries!

Donation protected

I already transitioned once. Now I'm poor, unable to afford HRT or any surgeries, and watching my progress reverse. Please help.

I've known I was transgender for most of my life. When I saw Aladdin for the first time, it became very obvious when I would ALWAYS use "MY three wishes" to invariably 1. be a beautiful girl and 2. still marry Jasmine. I spent the next 10 years of my life hiding this because school and movies and TV and all forms of media told me that I was the weirdest kind of laughing-stock FREAK. It took me until I was about 18-19 to really start considering who I was and who I wanted to be.

 

So when I was about 20 and finally started taking hormone therapy, I was about the most excstatic, excited, sobbingly-happy girl you can imagine. I have a major phobia of needles but I gave myself an injection every single week and kicked that phobia's ASS to do it with no trouble at all. I cannot tell you how it changed my life for the better.

 

And four years ago, disaster struck in 3 ways simultaneously. 1. My only living family member (my mother) was taken to jail for years. 2. My income dropped so far I was nearly homeless a dozen times in the past decade. At one point, a predator let me and my then-fiance stay with him and turned out to be a paedo. Three times we were rent scammed. It was a very rough few years. And lastly, 3. Progynon Depot 10mg/ml injections, the ones I'd been taking happily for years, were discontinued. Apparently they still make them or something similar in India? But there's also dozens, and dozens of other options for estrogen and estosterone blockers. I cannot afford them. But I also cannot afford to spend more years of my life poisoning myself with testosterone and dreading walking by mirrors or walking outside or hearing "Thank you sir" at the grocery store.

 

I need HRT. This treatment consists of 2, potentially 3 parts. 1. Estrogen, obviously. 2. T-blockers - something to stop my body from being confused about the new estrogen levels and trying to add testosterone levels to compensate. Very important. 3. totally optional - feminization regiments including estrogen-based creams that reduce or soften hair growth and other such things. I've never used anything like that, never felt the need to, though I'm not opposed to looking into it.

 

All money raised will go towards FINDING A DOCTOR AND/OR PAYING FOR MEDICATIONS, and living expenses because again- I am poor as heck. The ultimate goal for me is FACIAL FEMINIZATION SURGERY which can cost 15-25 grand, so thats just a pipe dream for now. I just want HRT for a year or two and the necessary things that come with transitioning.

 

However, 8,000$ is NOT ENOUGH FOR SURGERIES. If I reach the 8k goal I will change it to 20,000 as 15000-25000$ is the general price range for facial feminization surgeries in America. Just to be transparent, that is the plan!

 

And remember, if you can afford to help me out, BLM / NAACP fundraisers need your help too! BLACK LIVES MATTER!
