I told my MD about my being TG today:
1. He did not laugh, instead he told me that being TG had to do with brain chemistry.
2. plant based estrogens will not do much to feminize me and it would cost me lots and lots of money that I could spend on cloths instead.
3. animal based estrogens can lead to health issues like heart attack, stroke, and other not nice things. If its not really necessary it is not advised.
4. being 50 I am a little to old to make any changes to my body as far as feminizing my body is concerned
5. If you allow life's stresses to take control of thoughts and emotions you may end up with an ulcer.
I was suppressed that my MD was frank and honest with me about being TG and suggested that I embrace it because it is part of what makes me "me".
