Not a lot to go on with this posting. First question I have is are you seeing a therapist? A therapist who is WPATH certified is your best bet in helping you on your transition. They can explain the alternatives (e.g., types of surgical procedures, state laws, HRT alternatives, etc.).
Next, I'd bring my primary care provider into the loop. They may refer you to an endocrinologist for HRT treatment. Most care providers won't endorse a surgical approach unless you've been on HRT for up to two years. You're going to need to fill in more of the blanks to help much more.
What is stopping you ?
Yes!!,you are right,?they the state governments want take away your right to change your body the away you fit!!,are free will is at steak !., we must fight back till people let us be are true selfs.!!
Hi @karieanthony, I moved your post about wanting HRT treatment to this existing discussion in the LGBTQIA Health support group:
- M to F surgery: Anyone else transition? Feeling alone https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/m-to-f-surgery/
I did this so you can connect easily with others who have transitioned or are in transition like @bobbie4481 @keithradtke @dsjohnston53 @jeri444 and more.
@karieanthony, do you have access to gender-affirming medical care? Have you started HRT?
