4. Susan's Place Library: Estrogen Therapy for MTF Transsexuals
 |
| Once you are grown and genetic male traits are fully developed, the only way your body organs have of knowing what sex you are is by the levels of male and female hormones which are present. Changing the hormone balance from male to female with drugs causes tissues which are supported by male hormones to diminish and stop functioning and those which are supported by female hormones to develop and begin functioning. |

5. Susan's Place Library: Facinating Facts About Testosterone
 |
| When Joan's muscle aches - the result of an early hysterectomy - became disabling, she asked her doctor for help. He prescribed the male hormone testosterone. But after just a few weeks on the medication, Joan discovered an astonishing side effect: Testosterone not only relieved her pain but it also boosted her once-normal libido to an X-rated level. |

| 6. Susan's Place Library: Goal or Time Bomb?
|
| There are an extremely high number of people with the [Gender community] today who have begun hormone therapy. Most people are blind to the potential side effects of this activity, and many are misinformed regarding the consequences of being on hormones. Hormones are not "happy pills", or "breast pills"; hormones are not an innocent drug to be used within the play-fantasy world. |

| 7. Susan's Place Library: S.O.C. and Hormone Therapy for TSes Issues and Considerations
|
| The Standards of Care state that one must be in psychotherapy 90 days prior to hormones. That's all the document says about the qualification for hormones. Not infrequently the client thinks that this means "attending" therapy sessions for about thirteen weeks and stopping by to pick up a letter from the endocrinologist. In this paper I want to look at just what needs to happen during those first 90 days, or whatever time it may take. |
