I started going to this doctor in 2013 because he provides transgender care in his practice. The first two years, I got an annual physical with blood work, just to get a history in this practice.
Today I am going in Femboy mode and talk with him about HRT. I am very excited because this is another important step in my transition. Below is my transition schedule that I started in 2010 and expect to end in 2017.
- Lose weight (lost 65 lbs in 18 months - down to size 8/10) DONE
- Lose facial hair (32 months - 95+% gone - no longer shave) FINISHING
- Start wearing feminine clothes in public - 10 months as a femboy - comfortable out in makeup and female clothes NOW
- Coming out -I have been telling family and will continue with family and then friends NOW
- Makeup NOW
- Female mannerisms NOW
- Voice - once I finish electrology will pay for voice coach LATE 2015 OR 2016
- HRT - 2016
- Full Time female - LATE 2016 - EARLY 2017 - after 6/12 months of HRT
- FFS - Feminine Facial Surgery - Trachea Shave 2017 - after 12 months of HRT
- SRS (?)
Today is about Step 8. I want to talk to the doctor about his recommended HRT regime. Also, I would like to know what his requirements are for his HRT supervision. I went to him because I heard he will start HRT under informed consent.
Wish me luck. I will let you know how it goes in my Thursday post.
Be careful - You will also want a psychologist who will treat you for the 1 year RLT. GP's may have a hard time prescribing hormones unless you have this care, and can consult with the psychiatrist.....
