Someone once asked...

“My girlfriend is trans and she struggles a lot recently with being comfortable with her body. She hasn't had bottom surgery. I frequently reinforce that I find her attractive as she is and it makes her no less a woman, but it has been weighing heavily on her. She won't be able to do anything about it for at least a few years and it pains me that she can't feel like she is who she wants to be over it. I wish I could help her more, but I don't know how.”

Reaffirming her that she is a woman in your eyes and that you love her and your body is the most important thing you can do. There probably isn't much more you can do, I think. Maybe you want to ask her if there is anything that would help her not think about it so much, or something you could change. But in the end, sorry as I am to say it, it's going to be one of these types of shitty situations that you will have to deal with and endure, there's no miracle cure for it.

First, I wanna say im proud of the work you are putting in for supporting your girlfriend. it can be hard. Im a trans male myself and while im not saying our experiences are the same, I hope that can give you some insite on where i am coming from. i explain gender euphoria like wearing a style of clothes you normally don't ex. goth, its not that you hate people who wear it or that style of clothing its just not you, and being mislabled can really hurt, and covering it up can make you feel better but it will not go away until you come to peace with it (which isn't possible for some people) so you get it removed. Im not sure what i could say either, and i dont think that there is anything you can do to make it go away but i think talking to her, finding out what helps like a nice hoodie, complements, or tucking underwear, can help. im sure she loves you especially because of the work you put in
