Hello Everyone!
I must say that I am very happy to have found this wonderful online community! I look forward to learning & sharing with everyone.
A little about me, I am in my early 50's, married, and I live in Lenox, MA. My story is not new to anyone, my entire life has alkways been about hiding the woman that I am in an effort to "fit in" with societies expectations (and my parents) about the role of a male. My regret is that it has taken over 50 years to begin my transition! But, I am looking forward to an exciting new life and I am enjoying the journey!
I have made wonderful progress with my therapist (who I adore!) over the past 8 months and I look forward to continuing to explore who Jen really is!
I was bad with my trsansition in the beginning, I started myself on a hormone therapy by purchasing from an internet pharmacy without the guidance of an endo. I did that for about 3 months and then I said enough of this I felt that I really needed to continue my treatments with an endo that could monitor my levels.
I am so grateful too, because in a very short period of time (with im injections & spiro) I have begun to see excellent results! My breast's are developing nicely and my skin has become fantastic (yeh!). So I am thrilled so far!
My wife has been supportive so far, and she claims that she will never leave me! I must be blessed because she is so wonderful to still be in love with me and is looking forward to growing old together.
Well, I have rambled enough so I will say good bye for now. I am grateful that this community is here, and I do hope to actively participate in discussions!
Hugs to all
Jennifer
