Navigating gender dysphoria can be a long and challenging journey, with many individuals first feeling these emotions as young as age 7 and often waiting over 20 years before seeking help. The experience can bring about heightened anxiety and depression, and sadly, higher rates of attempted and completed suicide compared to their cisgender peers. However, there’s good news: gender affirming prosthetics can offer a significant boost in confidence and comfort. These innovative products are designed to help align one's physical appearance with their true self, making daily life a bit more affirming and enjoyable. In this blog, we'll explore various types of gender affirming prosthetics for MTF and FTM individuals and how they can make a positive difference in your life. While garments like gaffs and binders allow wearers to move away from their sex assigned at birth, prosthetics like breast forms and packers helps to look and feel more aligned with your gender. Let’s dive in and discover how these tools can help you feel more at home in your own skin!
