Ok, so I'm not planning on transitioning in the immediate future, these are just initial questions I've heard things about and am looking for some answers on.

So anyway, one of the things that I've heard about being a problem is the use of hormones and the many effects they can have on the body. My primary concerns are the emotional effects of them, but also the physical effects, and not the usual ones.

First off, I am a bit of an emotional enigma. I am very stoic when it comes to dealing with some people, including my gf, for whom one presumes I am supposed to be emotionally open, but I am also very strongly emotional when it comes to other people, like my best friend and woman whom I'll never have.

As to my physical concerns, my main worry is how my strength and stamina will be affected. I am ok with some drops in those, and would expect them as changes take effect, but I've heard that we can become more tired easily and be unable to accomplish the same physical efforts as before. Does this also mean it would be harder for me to workout and maintain the same kind of level of ability?

Your opinions are welcome.
