My body dysphoria only happens occasionally

I have body dysphoria and want to start doing hormone therapy. However, my dysphoria is only there sometimes. On some days, I'll be okay with my tits and just go about not worrying. But other days I get so depressed thinking about how my family calls me female. I'm not sure if I'm ready to transition to a male or if I identify as nonbinary. I've heard some people talk about being gender fluid, but I'm not too sure about that whole idea. If you have an opinion, I'd love to discuss.

    Unless you're 100% certain about this, please don't start putting dangerous sex hormones into your body! These treatments for trans people haven't been in use long enough to know what the longterm effects will be.

    I strongly suggest you have some counselling and NOT with someone who'll push the trans agenda.

    You don't say how old you are: when I was a very confused 13 year old, I truly believed for a few months that I was a boy, but I wasn't, and I believe now these feelings came from wanting the freedom boys seems to have and which I didn't have and hatred & fear about the physical & emotional changes taking place in adolescence.

    You certainly don't sound ready to even think about transition at this stage.

    Don't do ANYTHING if you are not 100% sure. That stuff is permanent.

    Bitch you are a female stop taking the meds and deal with being born with a vagina. It's your brain that is wrong not your body. Becoming a dude might not even help with your mental problem!

    Im kinda in the same boat. I wake up and dont feel like a woman in my body, but other days I think my desire to transition is deeply rooted in lack of self esteem and lack of praise upon my body.

    You really need to embrase your femininity, explore what it means to really be and feel as a woman, then you will know if hormone therapy still feels right.

    I feel like we live in a society nowadays that normalizes changing your gender and sex preferences, which is completely fine until you change genders and see how big of a deal it ACTUALLY is. Don’t do anything or announce yourself as something unless you’re absolutely certain about what you think you are. And I promise when you know you’ll know. I also have body dismorphia and struggle with anorexia. Some days Im consistently admiring myself, others I think I’m so ugly going outside feels shameful. So yes, I would say it’s normal for it to come in waves

    How about accept the gender you are and go from there? Especially if you don't have these thoughts all the time, I would not do hormone therapy.
