What It Required In Order To Like Start Therapy

[Guest Feelicia]

Like In order to get the hrt pills

you have to be living your life as a women already.

I was hoping to like take the pills and fade into living as a women to seem more passable

Let me first say Welcome to Laura's. I am glad you found the site searching for answers.

When you get a chance take a look at the terms and conditions located at the top of the page. We are a moderated site and keep it pg-13.

Now to your question. You don't always have to be living as yourself before starting hormones. I am still play acting as male most of the time and in the process taking hormones to become my true self.

You will have to see a gender therapist or regular therapist to get permission to start taking them. Then you have to find a doctor that will prescribe you the hormones.

If you have anymore questions just ask and we will try to help.

How about a intro post to let us know a little more about you.

Feelicia, hormone therapy almost always precedes living full time as a woman (or man, for FtM's). The sequence of events, timing,

and all the rest would be decided between yourself and your gender therapist (G.T.).

As you seem very new to all this, I strongly suggest reviewing this web site. It lays out the facts very well.

Or look through the Transgender and MtF Forums here. Post any specific questions that you have, too.

I began taking photo Estrogen's over the counter,and soy products,with very little result and much cost.I went to a therapist maybe 8 I'm thinking 5 She was trans and that gave me a letter of disphoria which elated me. Than found a very passionate clinic willing to help.I hope and bet on You Jennifer

Helo Feelica!

Welcome to the Playground!

Yes...the answer here is to see a gender therapist and they will help you find out about yourself...

Then if they feel it's good, they will prescribe the HRT for you....TA DA!
