Our mission is to highlight and develop advancements for trans men and nonbinary individuals assigned female at birth (AFAB) who seek bottom growth to relieve body dysphoria and foster body euphoria.
The Need
Currently, options for AFAB individuals are limited to hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and surgical procedures, which may not be accessible, desirable, or suitable for everyone.
HRT can present two challenges:
• Plateau of bottom growth – growth often stops at a certain stage.
• Systemic exposure versus topical – systemic testosterone affects the entire body, while many nonbinary individuals may prefer localized options to affirm gender without full masculinization.
Our Goal
We aim to explore safe, innovative methods to increase and stimulate erectile tissue growth in the clitoris of AFAB individuals. Topical and localized approaches could provide affirming care for those seeking alternatives to systemic HRT or invasive surgery.
Our Values
We are committed to diversity, inclusivity, scientific integrity, and the highest ethical and legal standards in serving the LGBTQ+ community.
We are at the early start up stage; we have a site, a mission statement, and now we are appointing key figures to our team.
