Sorry I haven't posted for a while. I have now begun my 3rd start at HRT. The first ended after my wife's strong opposition. The second ended due to political reasons that cannot be discussed on this forum. I now have begun my 3rd attempt following my realization that I must move forward with my transition regardless of the opposition. Fortunately, it's being covered at no out of pocket cost by my private insurance. My wife knows I have restarted and has basically now entered a don't ask don't tell approach. I have a consultation appointment for gender affirming bottom surgery scheduled next month. WPATH 7 will still require more time on HRT but I wish to get onboard with the clinic to get things started. I also need the 2 letters of support.
