7 months already?!?! So happy for you, im sure so many trans people are greatful for you being so open about your transition journey ❤️
I was sooo hungry before my surgery because it was scheduled for around noon, but I’m a baker, so I’ve usually eaten my breakfast And lunch by 9-10am. I made myself my favorite cookies beforehand though, so on the car ride home I got to eat some of those.
Please please please do or bring back the “doing things to show you it’s OK“ videos God I miss those!!!
He still does them 🥺🥺🥺
Thought he was bringing them back
good job on 7 months!!!!!!
Congrats! I remember when we were counting the days til..😊
The timing on this vid, I got top surgery literally two days ago!!
Congrats!
Congrats! Hope it went well 🎉

honestly, the idea of being sick after surgery really scares me, more than the pain or anesthetic (because i have a phobia) but I'm sure it's worth it
I’ve been thinking about getting top surgery, mostly in the “ahh I need to think more about the pros and cons of this” stage and idk if I’ll do it, but thank you for the video. It’s always good to know more information about recovery and what that might look like!!
Im 2 weeks post op... sitting is the worst part for me but i found ezra 2 weeks prior to my surgery and hes the best person to watch while recovering
I'm so happy for you 💫 I've veen following your journey for over 2 years now and it so amazing to see all the changes.
AHHH ez I'm so happy for you, you are such an inspiration to me to keep going ❤️
AAAHHHH Your voice is so deep!!!!! I'm so happy for you Ez!!!
Just a few seconds in and your voice is so calming, like it brought me to tears legit. (IK testosterone isnt the focal point of the video but still) Congrats on the smooth transition and recovery
Thank you for making this video! So helpful ❤
we love you ez ! youre the coolest
Lol I just turned my phone on and the notification appeared

From the river to the sea my friend
I got top surgery (periareolar) last week. My surgeon says that I'm healing pretty well and I'd only have to wear the post-op binder for 2 weeks ;). It's great to read people on the comments saying that are getting top surgery soon!! Good luck to all 🩵
Thanks for making this video I was hoping you would make a long form video talking about your experience. -with love from Florida USA 🦩🌴
OMG THE DOCTOR WHO DECORATIONS IN THE BACKGROUND AAAAA
you look awesome Ez, the surgeons did really well!
Im thankful for your channel you have made me more confident. When I was year 10 I had s thoughts alot but I was also a very angry guy because of my family and just transphobes. Me and my friends literally had pride parades around school got told to off ourselves but somehow we got told off. Obviously parents were complaining love that for us. Anyway two years later Im not as S as I once was but it doesnt just leave. I've been out for 5 years (crazy I know) All I've ever wanted was to be diagnosed with gd so I can move on with my life but I'm no closer than i was 5 years ago. Your channel keeps me going
Thank you for sharing your journey.
i am so proud of youuuu
T-T
Hello!!! Love you’re videos✨
OMG GOOD JOB EZ!!!!! I want to get mine but I'm not quite old enough yet.. 😭😭 got any tips on how to come out/dysphoria tips? You don't have to answer this but I would love if you did💜
So depending on how old you are, you can still talk to your GP (the doctor you see for check ups, vaccines, etc) and they can send the referral to the plastic surgery place and to your insurance because depending on where you live it could take years to process and go through then you would like. Another reason why it could take long to process is since you are a minor, your parental situation, the parents/legal guardian that are on your birth certificate must give consent or there could be legal actions needed in order to get the gender affirming care you need. I wish you luck and nothing but the best for your journey💖
Thank you💜💜
You posted this video on the day I got the date for MY top surgery! (February 28th btw)
Ezra I'm a nurse and unfortunately the request to lose weight before top surgery isn't just about skill it is risk of terrible healing and even for people whom have lost weight and need plastic surgery for a body lift or a mommy make over the surgeon wants you to have a BMI below 31 because risk of the wound opening, decreased wound healing and infection is much higher with overweight and obese patients. So surgeons refuse until weight loss happens so that those patients will have better results and not risk have a bad outcome.
There was some drama about that because apparently he did do top surgery on larger people before (and other people do) but just didn't do a good job. Seems more like damage control to rule those people out.
unfortunately hes not talking about people who would be in danger if they went under anaesthesia, not people who are medically obese. the surgeon says this to people who are within a normal bmi but on the higher end, whom he thinks the aesthetics of the results would be ruined because they are on the chubbier side
@isaac_rowan That is sad. I had an orthopedic surgeon refuse to fix a huge tear in my soft tissue of my knee because I am obese. Instead, he caused me Cushings from Prednisone. Surgeons like that karma will bite them in the arse.
It's great and inspiring to see you happy like this, Ez ❤
im so glad for you🙃😊
It’s crazy that’s it’s been so long!! 😭
I'm already excited to get top surgery eventually, too! The thing that scares me most about it is waking up from anaesthesia and feeling sick or having to throw up because I'm emetophobic and get panic attacks from that. ^^"
Also, I'm too anxious to contact surgeons and ask for TS. It's the main reason I keep putting it off. :T
Could uou make a video about what types of questions they asked you for the gender diagnosis?
I get my consult in June SO EXCITING💖✨ I personally have always been underweight but recently I've been maintaining the weight for my height and age which is great but my surgeon also recommends being under 30 BMI which I'm not sure why specifically but she says it helps with the recovery process. I do think more surgeons should be more inclusive to people who are overweight. A surgeon I was considering for a while, before landing with the one I have now, was Dr. Satterwhite and I think he does specialize with diverse weight gaps such as those who are also on the bigger side, which is so amazing!
It’s more dangerous for people with a higher bmi, more complications and risks are associated with it. A lot of surgeons will do it but it’s easier and better if you are a more “healthy” weight.
Not really acquainted with top surgery- but my grandpa had hip bone surgery, my aunt had a surgery for displaced disc. In both cases, they were told to be in a certain bmi range. And we also had a neighbour who's doctor advised against a surgery because of being too overweight.
Not only recovery, your body can go into shock while in surgery. It's not to be inclusive- if people are too old or too heavy- they won't be eligible for *some* surgeries. Because doing that surgery would cause more damage.
Again, I don't know about top surgery one. Just wanted to say that if possibles doctors would provide treatment regardless of weight or age. Sometimes the risk outweighs more than the benefits.
Maybe you could do a "doing things you're afraid of to show you it's ok" for registering to vote and/or voting. That woukd have a very positive impact
id have written this under the keir starmer short but a bug is preventing it.
Damn time flies so fast?! And I just noticed I watch him almost a Year😭
Eyyy we're a only a few months apart! I had mine end of november last year. First time I saw my chest was when I woke up briefly on the surgery table when they were putting on my post-op binder. I asked to see it again and I'm p sure I said something along the lines of "nice"or "hell yeah" before I passed out again lmao
i'm so so worried about feeling nauseous and getting sick after surgery, i have really bad emetophobia and it's *one of* my biggest concerns with the surgery itself :-(
I have top surgery in 3 weeks so great timing!
Congratulations and good luck 🤗
Can we just acknowledge how clean this man's looks is in this videos... like damn bro my girl is on this app save some drip or drop the routine 😭🙏
I commented after 30 seconds of posting :0
Would Isaac share his story also?? Very interested to see how both your experiences line up
It's crazy, I got my breast reduction the same month!! I feel SO much better now!
Question, I’ve heard of people who could not feel their nipples after surgery for years, was that the case for you? Also love the tardis drawing in the background
LUV U EZZZZ ❤
top surgery really didn't hurt for me as well!! it was so easy and the meds that i was prescribed was just paracetemol lol. its really strange i expected so much more.
40 seconds ago is crazy
His laugh is so infectious
Now a man because breasts have been removed?
Tbh, I’ve been questioning being trans (FTM). I feel like he/him pronouns just suit me better, and when I look at females it just doesn’t seem like me. When I look at a guy it seems much more like what I’m supposed to be. I’ve never acted ‘girly’, I don’t wear makeup, I don’t wear girly clothes (literally I wear a hoodie and sweatpants on the daily, helps with my (undiagnosed) dysphoria). Also, I’m trying out a new name and I really like it more than my actual name (but, then again, I’ve never liked my irl name bc it’s rlly common and boring IMO)
Any advice to figure it out more? (Or names? I’ve been going by Aspen, and I kinda like it)
It’s so cool that you had top surgery on my birthday hah
hey i’m early
the disphoria diagnosis actaully kinda worries me, because i dont have intense disphoria. i think my life would be better if i had top surgery but what if they dont believe me?
❤❤❤
Nice ❤
gud video thank you mr butler
But sweetheart can you tell us what it was like growing up feeling the way you did please I’m not trying to be weird I just am truly intrigued
so proud that i got to watch your full pronoun pipeline lmao. it’s great to see you finally living as who you truly are ez!!
Ur astetich is so cool
Love u!!!! I identify as a guy too
your transitioning so fast congrats
Is it nessecary to be on (& stay on?) t to get top surgery?
It's different with every surgeon I believe
nope, must surgeons in the uk accept ppl who arent on t. some surgeons require u to go off t for like 6/4/2 (it varies) weeks before surgery because of blood clotting risks, but not all do. you dont have to stay on t after surgery and no surgeon will make you disclose your future plans with hrt. if u go off t, or arent on it in the first place it wont affect your results, they cant grow back as long as all the breast tissue is removed, the only way ur results will be affected by t is from how your pectoral muscles develop
@@isaac_rowan Thanks a lot!
Im 2 months post top, have som complications already
You know what? I am a regular viewer of your UA-cam Channel. I have seen all your videos and your content qualities are very good. I learned lots of things from you. Your channel has great quality contents but still it is not delivering its right audiences due to SEO problems. You should focus on your SEO so that You can get a big fanbase. Thanks.
My younger self would be happy stimming realising top surgery was a thing. (Tales of ‘cis’ childhood: finding out I would grow boobs and having a mental breakdown and as a 6 year old planning to stop eating if they started growing. Not great.)
I love you and ur videos ez!!!
I'm afraid that no one will helps me when I'm post op.
16:01 a few months ago? That was 5 years ago
I want to get top surgery but I'm really scared because I feel like it's a very invasive surgery 😭
Watch and read and learn as much as you can about it, especially videos and accounts of people sharing firsthand experience having gone through it are great resources. And also Many surgeries that are much more commonplace are much more invasive. Being scared is completely rational so don’t feel bad but use it to guide you to inform yourself - maybe that fear is a lot of areas of the unknown
Your voice sounds like Mrs. Doubtfire! Hope this doesn't come off as offensive, just found that a little interesting!
I wonder if it’s because of the region of his accent?
i wish that were me
Well that’s great. If I were to get top surgery, which I can’t even afford, I need to wait at least 3 years to even be old enough, I can’t afford t or a dysphoria letter thing, and I don’t have anyone who can support my existence and even confirm that I am trans. Welp I’m doomed
Hi ez❤😁
Did you say Mars berry or Miles berry?
Miles berry
You should do ASMR vids Ez
Getting a diagnosis like you're getting preop blood work is WILD.
You have to prove you have experienced it for yrs lmao
watching this for completely cis reasons..
(HAPPY FOR U🎉🎉)
I've never been sure about the choices of Ezra, i followed him from a quite lot when he was more feminine presenting, but the choices are his and only his, i just hope he is happy with all his choices (not just start transition) and what he do is really right for him, i rember i was so scared for them when they anounced top surgery, anyway i think they are really brave and sweet and its so important sharing real trans experience and all the rest of his content like he do . Wish them the best
Hey, just a quick heads-up that Ez uses just he/him pronouns :)
@@Francesca-bo3ou He doesn't use they/them pronouns anymore, and hasn't for over a year now. Again, no hate, just giving you the heads-up. You can see exclusively he/him in his bio :)
isaac is a edp
Your face is very well suited to being a guy. You make for a good looking bloke!
Hi ez 😋
Please don’t spread misinformation. Surgeons that decide to not operate on overweight/obese patients is not a skill issue, it is professional discretion. Being overweight/obese poses a much larger risk to the patient, and most physicians will refuse to approve an elective surgery on these patients.
Hi! We aren't talking abt ppl who are severely obese to the point ANY surgery can be incredibly risky. We are talking abt ppl like me (5'3, 200 pounds, most fat in thighs) in which it simply CAN be bc they aren't trained to work on us.

how can u be trans if u was happy to wear womans clothing only 1/2 years ago? genuine question btw
CLOTHES ≠ GENDER
That’s how >:3
@@Whyamiawakeat3am how comes they dress as a stereotype of a camp male now then?
They went from presenting as a woman to presenting as a male. So if the clothes don't correlate to gender then why bother look like a stereotype of a male? Interested to see the rationale
@@averyintelligence Bc when was the last time you’ve seen a straight, cis male wear stereotypical female clothing and NOT get made fun of?
Society has told us that dresses and crop tops are for girls, and pants and ties are for men. So, when someone goes out of that standard, ppl don’t really like it to say the least.
@@Whyamiawakeat3am I'm a masculine woman who gets misgendered as male all the time.
I understand what you're saying.
I don't know why people still consent to buying into stereotypes, as that's the basis of being trans.
It is difficult to be a manly woman or a feminine man in this society, for sure. We do get oppressed from a young age. The real non gender conforming people who take the bs and the disphoria that comes with it should be championed.
Being trans is simply giving in and actually buying into the concepts of what is a 'man' or 'woman'. It's all based on external image and ones own courage to face the reality and integrate the selfs of them they hate.
@@averyintelligence I’m a closeted trans myself (FTM- he/they) so I can say that trans people aren’t just “Buying in to the stereotypes”. It’s all about how *you* are. Not about how people perceive you or your gender, that’s kinda what makes people trans.
Being trans is *not* giving in to the societal norms of being cis. Plus, being trans is just an umbrella term for lots of different things. Bigender, pangender, nonbinary, demigender, etc. so saying that people are just “buying in to concepts” makes no sense.
Not needing gender dysphoria is crazy 😬
Are people who go to this surgeon contractually obliged to mention his name multiple times every time they talk about him or what?
You think having healthy breasts removed is ethically sound?
They may have been physically healthy, but they were causing him mental pain by triggering his gender dysphoria. Transitioning medically is a treatment to alleviate the symptoms of gender dysphoria.
Love how you force your voice to be deep, but then you forget and it goes up, and then remember again and make it super deep😂
so idk if you knew this but people’s voices do indeed go higher when they’re happy
Please… it’s very clear when someone is frocing their voice to sound deeper/higher
@@Nikkipikki22It’s also very clear when one has been on testosterone, making their voice deeper normally but it’ll get much higher pitched and cracky when certain emotions are intense, such as happiness.
Although after long enough, those things die down and one’s voice sounds closer to normal.
its almost as if intonation exists...
Hi! This is actually bc those who are raised as girls are taught to speak higher. We have to remember to not do that if we don't want to sound like a flamboyant gay man (nothing wrong with that tho)
Two hours is not in depth 🙄
Two hours and they can just determine you’re trans wtf hahah… sounds about right.😂
it is a rather long time to be talking about one specific topic. the diagnostic team also get a lot of information before the appointment through like 7 different questionnaires, which are pages and pages long. they ask about pretty much all aspects of your medical history, mental health history, childhood and adulthood. its also really not that hard to diagnose but you arent a professional in that field and have no experince with anything trans related so idk why youre acting like you know better than people with degrees in this topic.
It's absolutely shocking
I’m not the only one who’s scared that they won’t be diagnosed as trans and they’re fake and what they’re feeling is just the product of trauma and suicidal thoughts, right?
@@2bpencil852 dunno if you read that wrong, but I’m just trying to find people who are also worried about this. I’m worried that I’m not trans even though I have pretty bad gender dysphoria.
Something that helped me a lot when I had doubts over whether I was really trans was the realization that cisgender people don't worry about not being "trans enough." I mean think about it: why would someone who isn't trans worry about whether they deserved to transition? It would be like someone who isn't an amputee worrying if they need a prosthetic. If you know you know.
If you feel like you are any bit trans you are trans enough to transition. You don't even have to start with hormones. You can take smaller steps, like trying a different name or styling your hair or clothes differently. Some of the first gender euphoria tingles I got were when my hair reached my shoulders. See what feels good, and if doing more of it feels better that's probably a sign you're on the right track.
I used to be constantly scared of this but then I realized I was languishing over labels. The truth was that in the lived reality of my everyday life, taking the steps I had in my transition did improve my wellbeing. No matter what it could be called , in this case it’s called gender transition, what I did helped me. This thought process also helps me relax because I am stressed how there is no way to “really know” (ie. Blood test, brain scan, whatever) when in fact these behavioral and lifestyle patterns are the way you uncover that transitioning is right for you. Some people do transition and then detransition after realizing unaddressed trauma was guiding their desire to transition, and not gender dysphoria by itself. And that is okay. It’s always okay to change how you live to be more comfortable with yourself. I hope you do not let fear guide you but rather seek ways to help yourself and comfort yourself, no matter where they lead you or if they loop back around to somewhere you were before. And also I will add that many, many trans people have a fear of being “fake” or “not really being trans”. But the truth is that “being trans” doesn’t just mean one thing, and many trans who transition do still deal with issues of suicidal thoughts and living with trauma. It doesn’t make them less trans. Everyone has full lives with room for their whole selves, all parts. Peace and love to you ❤
@@2bpencil852pretty sure they're talking about themself lol
@@We.should.start.the.apocalypse i honestly haven't heard of a cis person having gender dysphoria could you please explain your experiences?
