Ok I know I was a downer earlier on my other forum. I told my wife the truth about my heart complications and I already talked to my doctor not too long ago  about what would happen if I would take hormones and surgeries etc... and I can't do it because of my heart . My wife was worried about me cause knows that I wanted to go through the transition. She told me I know you're a man you don't have to prove anything to me. She is so understanding love her to death. But here's the weird part the structure of my skull is a full grown males head it was measured at my doctor's.  When I hit puberty um I grew stomach hair like a male and a little bit of facial hair I'm not talking about dark peach fuzz either and my voice is deeper than most women's. So I had a lot of waxing to do growing up I kept this a secret for along time. When I hit my mid 20's I was on my own health insurance plan and finally went to the doctors to check myself for  this hair growth. They did a hormone test and my body creates a higher level of testosterone. But I guess this is normal for me because the doctors told me that I going to have to deal with it cause my estrogen levels were normal they couldn't give me anymore estrogen because of other conditions I have. So I'm ftm, is this why I have the mind of a man or are my parents not telling me something that I should have known about? My wife told me to bind my chest and to "pack" like I do and that if that's as far as I can go through transitioning that's fine. I told her I won't talk about suicide anymore and that this is as far as I can go for myself with transition I accept it and I don't want to do something stupid and miss out on our marriage and the family that we're going to have for something I have no control over. I'm not going to lose my life over this.

You could have PCOS which is causing the masculine traits like the facial hair and such. It may be a good idea to have your doctor look into that too.

Get a second opinion about hormones and surgery, there are people with heart conditions that transition.

Consult Endo,but I think you can undergo transition.After bottom surgery,your testosterone dose will be lower.
