Transitioning to m to f or f to m

I have thought about it a lot lately. I made an appointment today to have a consultation with a practitioner for that specializes in HRT M-F. I’m scared and excited. My kids and brother and parents I don’t know how they would react. My brother would make fun of me and estrange me. My teenage kids would think it’s weird and distance themselves from me. I think it’s safe to say I’d be disowned by my family.

Jury is still out on wether I’d do it or not. 🤷‍♂️

Wishing the best Paula if decide to go through it. One of those things that really want to do or need to do.

Your Dr will explain things better on the matter.

As for family would suggest telling them asap better come out before then after get as much support can get. Be better in long run to have family and friends for support then outside help. Believe me have all the support for my choice from my family friends relatives and outside help. As well as alot support from the girls here.

Thank you so much for those kind words!

most welcome anytime Paula know us girls that going through this or thinking of going through it need to stick together.

Know it a lot to think about it more to it then just waking up one day and say going to switch gender. Maybe one day they will come out with something to do that on a trail bases.  a 24 hour switch.

Male to female

Although I voted no, lately I have been thinking about what hrt could do for me.

could always find you a good Dr and ask Did same thing before starting my HRT. Do know some have to go see a gender therapist first before starting treatment My therapist agreed with my thinking and thoughts.

The pandemic, lock downs and working at home has seen me make some big changes. I started hormones on Christmas day last year .  I also decided to grow my hair out and so the hormones have definitely helped with the health and growth of my hair

Ive never felt better

Congrats Juliana  for a step forward. Wishing you a great journey on the way.

Pretty much same way Holly go all the way or just pout about it. Choose to go all the way. Good luck Holly on your transtioning Hope the Dr gets your meds right. Know took some trail and errors when I started mine but now all good.

Well, since you asked: As I have already posted, I began HRT on October 5, against the advice of my cardiologist. In deference to my age and medical history, I'm starting with a low dosage, pills and estrogen patch instead of the faster injections. And I will not be having the surgery; what's "down there" is irrelevant at my age, and the recovery time would be too long.

Hugs,
Lulu

Wishing you the best Lulu on the quest.

Donna, as I have said before you are an inspiration to me. I would be lying if I said I haven't considered going on beyond cross dressing.  But it is late in life for me to be thinking along that option and I am not 100% sure about it. I have grand kids and while I may be able to ultimately make them understand I don't think their parents would.

Donna, I love being able to express my femininity. At this point I would be happy with my wife accepting me for what I am. I just ask you to keep uplifting me with your success. God bless you Donna.

Hugs, Liara
