Hi everyone,
I'm just beginning the physical process of transition. (There are epic battles at home over this so things might change, but I need some information I can't seem to find.)
My first hormone appointment is about a month from now (hard to get doctors where I live, so that's really soon). I am fortunate to have a job at which i can transition and be protected, though it's obviously going to be awkward. A test of my commitment I suppose.
Assuming regular hormone doses and steady attention to hair removal and such, how long is it likely that I can hide this from my colleagues and observant (mostly female) students? When should I plan to go full time, based on starting HRT approximately June 1, 2018?
i've seen all kinds of things posted here, and I realize there is some flexibility based on how much or how little work I want to do to hide things and how old I am (60), but i'm curious as to what people think and know -- how long after HRT did you transition socially? Does being on HRT just make you want to accelerate things or does it calm that down?
thanks for any thoughts...
