My first post here, so while I am new, I have visited this site a number of times over the past year and a half.

I'm in my sixth decade of life, so no doubt older than most of you.  There are a number of things that I have questioned myself about over the years and never knew for certain why I thought or did them.  About a year and a half ago I read an article about a fellow very similar to me that literally stunned me.  I had to do a double take to be sure the story was not about me.  It caused me to visit a gender therapist who is absolutely convinced that I am TS.  It was not what I was expecting to hear.  It's been a while since I've been back to see her, but I continue to question who I am.  For most transgender people, it seems like they have always known who they were, but I'm still trying to figure it out.  It's been difficult for me to accept, probably because I grew up in a conservative family.  There are days when I think I really am TS, but then there will be days when I really don't think so.  Perhaps the gender spectrum is not totally binary and there can be some overlapping of the genders.  If so, maybe that is where I am.  I guess if I had a choice I'd like to be able to pass for either gender.

That's enough for a short intro.

Best wishes to all.

Welcome to Susan's Place. I am 64 years old and have been post surgical a long time but there are others in their 50s on this site who are transitioning. You aren't the only one who figured it out late in life but there are a fair number who knew early in life and where able to live with the feelings for years. I discovered it in my early teen and it is clear that I always was transsexual but before my teens it didn't seem to matter.

It is possible you might be non binary but the feelings tend to come and go. They are the strongest when you are idle and vanish when you are occupied with something else. Feel free to explore all the areas you are interested in and then decide where you are most comfortable. Should you need help, let us know and we will do our best to help you.

Thank you for the welcome.  One other thing I might mention is that I had an orchiectomy a few months ago and I sure enjoy life without those things.  I'm on a very low dose of T right now, but I'd like to go off that and try a low dose E.  I have a feeling that would be real nice.
