I'm almost to the point where my counselor can write a letter stating I've met the therapy hrs required to start hormone therapy. As a part of that I have to bring in a list based on research of the risks of hormone therapy. Do you guys have any good sources, I guess I pretty much know them but I want to verify myself before I have it attached to my referral letter.

This site http://www.seekwellness.com/andropause/c_risks.htm mentions sleep apnea and an increase in red blood cells that I hadn't seen before. Also, this site http://www.lgbthealthchannel.com/transgender/ht.shtml lists all of the changes and some risks to be expected with hormone therapy. (FTM is further down the page).
