Title: Need some help
Post by: G-BabysGirl on June 14, 2009, 02:02:56 PM
My SO is wanting to go FTM and we have no idea where to go on the internet to find male hormone treatment.  This is all new to the both of us.  I was very reluctant at first, but am coming to terms with the fact that she doesn't want to live as a female anymore.  We will never be able to afford a sex change surgery, but we are looking into a Mammoplasty.  That is about as far as we will be able to go in the way of surgery.  If anyone can give us some help with hormone pills it would be greatly appreciated.

We don't support self medication here, so the best advice I can give you is "Start with a gender therapist".
Best of luck to the both of you.

Yes, I would not recommend doing this online.  There are too many things that can go wrong with hormone treatment.  Everything is much, much safer if you do this with a doctor's supervision.

First off, where do you live? I can point you to some local resources.

Yikes. There are too many risks just ordering it offline and hoping for the best.  Try getting an appointment locally, or as locally as seems safe if your town does not provide that.

Good luck!
