Today I started on a low dose of Estrogen and Spiro and hopefully I can now start to resolve the conflict between my brain and my body. I am starting by "dipping my toe in" the hormonal pool. I'm doing this for two reasons. The first is I'm trying to get my GD in order and second I'm trying to maintain my marriage by still trying to present as a male for my wife.
I know this has been discussed here about trying to have it both ways, but personally I think I have to try this therapy path first. My wife is not keen on my "hobby" and I'm trying to make her feel assured that I'm still the person she married, but Heidi's been here the whole time and she needs to be met too.
I hoping this first step is a way that I can control my needs and meet my wife's as well. We'll see after a few months on the meds. If things need adjustment, I can always up my meds if needed and hope my wife understands. Forward!
