Transitioning at age 50, is that to old?

[ChiGirl]

I first slapped on the magic potion when I was 58 (and now nearly two years later I'm 55).

Wow!  Send us some of this magic potion!  [emoji1]

No it's not. In fact it's too early     Like a fine wine a transgendered woman needs to age before being uncorked and shared with the world. In my expert opinion (I am not a doctor but I have been to medical facilities) HRT should begin when you are 53 years 9 months and 5 days old, at least that's what's worked for me

      Hi,
       I have been on this site for sometime, but just reading everyone's story, but
      not doing anything about me. I just turned 70 and I hated all my life who I really should have been
      but there is always the kids to think about. I have been off the hormones since the end off Oct.
      and believe me it is driving me nuts!
       I am going back to see my doctor I hope in the next week or so. I know I will never fully become the women
     I was suppose to be, but with the hormones I will feel a lot better, but being stuck in the house was driving me battey
       I only wished I would have done this 40 yrs ago, but that's life! The really reason I was off the hormones is
     because I had a nee replacement and know I have to get the other one done.
       Sorry about taking to much, but I have to vent a little bet.

While 50 is most definitely old, it doesn't mean its too late to transition. You do want to be happy in your twilight years after all...

"While 50 is most definitely old."  Just measure me now! Good bye sweet world. (Kidding. Away for a single malt whisky or two)

I am 61 and I have started the process.   Should start HRT in about a month.

It is never too late as others have said, but of course I wish I was in my teens...

You're never, EVER too old to transition!

[Laurie K]

I dont think that transition is ever to late . In saying that I had the opportunity to do that in my late thirties but could not follow up .Im now 56 and am on hrt for a month and have full intentions of finishing the job this time.  Transition when ever you are able; enjoy what ever time you have.

Happiness has not age.. The most important thing is be happy with yourself.. and no matter the time.. the years.. or the conditions.. The road maybe will be difficult.. but I know you will feel in peace with yourself..

Hi ,  no  it's  not  to  old  ,  make  the  change  & be  happy   

[Ryuichi13]

Pfft.  Age is nothing but a number!

I'm 55, and I began taking T a month and a half before my 55th birthday.

"Too late?"  I say, "you're NEVER too old!"

I'm 55 and starting my journey. Waiting for my Endo appointment. I'm ready and so excited! I never say (old) I spell if necessary to use the word. Life is short! Live now!
