Healthy Tips for Crossdressers You Must Know

Hello again, my friends! I hope that you all are doing very well. To help you a little bit with that, today we are going to talk about some healthy tips and cares that every crossdresser must know.

Delving into this lifestyle may lead to unhealthy habits that can be avoided with ease.

Crossdressing is a form of expression that pushes oneself to look more feminine every day.

In this search, many find themselves following unhealthy habits that bring little to no good.

Extreme dieting and exercise are just some examples.

We are going to see here the most common ones and how you can replace them with healthier ones.

If you are wondering which are those habits and how you can achieve the same results while keeping yourself safe and sound, keep reading! Join me in the healthier side of life!

1. Wearing Proper Shoes

High heels are one of the most feminine items that every crossdresser wants to wear.

But it can also be a source of problems if you are not careful enough.

Not only walking in heels requires practice but also they can hurt your feet very badly.

If you are somewhat new to this lifestyle, you should know that it is advised against starting with very high heels.

Five-, four-, and even three-inch heels may be as dangerous as the first pair of heels, especially if the heel is too thin.

It can lead not only to falls but also you can twist your ankles and injure them.

It is better to start with lower and broader heels to learn how to balance your weight while walking.

There is another very important aspect, and that is selecting the right kind of shoe for your feet.

When buying shoes, remember to go for ones that support your feet comfortably.

It depends very much on the design as there are open shoes that offer little to no support as closed ones that are constrictive.

2. A Note on Waist-Training

One of the greatest allies for every crossdresser in achieving a feminine shape is the corset.

Some are purely aesthetic, but others focus on training your waist so the effect is more permanent.

In the pursuit of a womanly silhouette, many opt for waist training as a way to get there sooner.

But beware, some aspects can lead to injury if you aren’t careful enough.

First and foremost, biological men and women tend to have different body proportions.

Being that so most corsets are aimed at biological women, and that makes them an improper fit for most crossdressers.

That’s why, before going through with the purchase, you must know how to take measures to avoid injuring your spine.

In this post, you will find all you need to know to get the proper size of corset that you are looking for.

After you do so, you can check our website and pick one among many styles here.

If you have decided to go through with waist training, there’s another thing you should take into account: time.

Even if you bought the correct size, long periods of wearing it can lead to problems in your back.

Most waist-training corsets are safe to wear for 8 hours or so, but if you are starting on this path, it is recommended you start with 2-hour sessions to get accustomed.

From there, you can start adding one hour to your waist-training sessions, but keep in mind that it isn’t safe to do it all of a sudden.

And last, you can’t fully train your waist with just one corset.

Normally, you can only reduce two inches from your waist with one corset.

Once you achieve this milestone, you will have to get another one to reduce your waist further.

If you feel any pain after taking your corset off, you should consult immediately with a doctor to make sure you are not hurting yourself.

3. Exercise and Diet

Usually, anyone who’s into exercising to shape their body goes too far.

What I mean by this is that more exercise doesn’t necessarily mean better results.

As with waist training, results take some time to be visible.

Training in excess can lead to poor performance, not only will you be stressing your body over the limits, but also your body will not develop in the ways it is supposed to.

Muscles need many nutrients to develop in the right way besides a healthy training routine.

That’s why you can’t overlook your diet.

A protein-based, present in great quantities in most legumes and red meats, is the core for developing muscle tissue.

Nonetheless, a healthy diet includes a wide variety of nutrients present in different foods.

If you are looking to start a heavy training regime, you should consult with a nutritionist to make sure you are not overlooking anything.

Generally speaking, moderation and the correct mindset are the keys to improvement.

4. Mental Health

“Mens sana in corpore sano,” Romans used to say. This means “sane mind in a sane body.”

Taking care of your body is as important as taking care of your mind.

When one of those is not at an optimal state, the other soon follows.

Being a crossdresser means having a particular lifestyle that’s not often accepted within society.

This alone brings many mental problems paired with it.

Not being able to share your tastes or dress however you want could, in time, develop in some form of depression or anxiety.

Problems bonding with others and loneliness are two of the probable outcomes of this scenario, and neither one is healthy.

Thanks to the internet, it is easier to bond with others through it, but sometimes it isn’t enough.

There’s a chance you can’t connect with someone nearby depending on where you live, so the secret life of a crossdresser is often very lonely.

That’s why, as a community, we must do every little thing within our reach to gain visibility and acceptance around the world.

I’m not saying that you should become a hardcore activist, but instead, try speaking with friends, partners, and family members about this whenever possible.

It is very often that people are afraid of what they don’t understand or know.

Reaching out to them and trying to get your point of view is essential to achieve the society we all strive for.

If you feel like this fight is taking a toll on you, reach out for professional help.

Your life is the most important thing you have, and living happily on your terms is what we all should strive for.

5. Hormone Replacement Therapy

Science has got to a point where it is possible to synthesize replacements for human hormones.

Hormones are responsible for the changes in our bodies as we grow up.

One of their functions is to develop our features depending on the presence of specific compounds.

Testosterone is responsible for masculine traits, whereas estrogens and progestogens help in the development of feminine traits.

These chemical compounds are present in both females’ and males’ bodies but in different proportions.

As one might suppose, testosterone is normally present in great quantities in biological males, and estrogens and progestogens in small amounts.

The opposite is true for biological women.

But as I have said before, science nowadays can manufacture these compounds with ease.

Hormone replacement therapy, or HRT, is a process in which an individual alters their natural hormone balance.

This is used not only by people with problems associated with hormonal imbalances but also by those who want to transition.

Others, far from transitioning, use them nonetheless as a way to develop or enhance desired traits.

Their power is such that with the right HRT, biological males can develop breasts with the aid of estrogens and progestogens.

If you know where to look, these kinds of hormones are present in many pills and remedies.

Taking them without a prescription may lead to permanent hormonal imbalances that can develop further health problems.

During the HRT, the hormones are taken along with blockers to prevent the natural production of those already present in your body.

As obvious as it may seem, many take hormones without proper consultation with a doctor or specialist.

To avoid any serious issues with your body long-term, you must do so with the knowledge at hand.

Fully understand the effects and consequences of it before stepping into such a life-changing treatment.

Also, it is very helpful to get in contact with someone who has gone through HRT to get an insider opinion of what lies ahead.

The achievable results of HRT are truly amazing, but they are not so easily reversible.

That’s why consulting with a professional before taking any action is always best recommended.

As you can see, crossdressing is not unhealthy by itself. I believe it can be a healthy habit that allows you to express yourself.

But like anything in the world, when we take it to extremes without proper consideration, it can turn against us.

Love yourself and know you are not alone, even though it may seem that way in plain sight.

If you know of any habit common to crossdressers that I think can become hazardous if taken too far, let me know in the comments below.

Stay healthy, happy, and proud, for you are an amazing human being.
