Hi! I'm Benji. I'm a 27yo trans man looking to raise money to get top surgery this Autumn and finally say "BYE BYE BENJI'S BOOBIES".

For context, I have always felt uncomfortable with my chest which has only amplified over the past couple years as I've come to the realization that I am a trans man. My chest causes me a great deal of gender dysphoria that can feel almost unbearable at times. I manage currently by wearing binders and occasionally taping, but these are difficult especially with the sensory sensitivities that come with being neurodivergent and never fully ease that dysphoria.

I do not yet have an exact quote of how much surgery will cost, however recent quotes for my surgeon stand at around £9,800, with this subject to increasing by the time I hope to get surgery in Autumn this year. I have chosen the timescale of Autumn this year as it is advised to be on hormones (testosterone) for at least 6 months before surgery which I started in October 2025, and this timeframe also gives me the best chance to reaching my financial goal. I hope to raise funds through fundraising, my own savings, and hopefully a medical loan also.

I appreciate the goal may look large, but any amount of donation will be a massive help and I will be eternally grateful.

I want to say a thank you to everyone that has already and continued to show their support throughout my transition. I know top surgery will to go a great deal to making me feel complete and comfortable in my body.

Thank you for reading,

Benji
