Post by: juanita s on December 09, 2015, 12:06:49 PM
I am in the process of waiting to get an an appointment through the VA to talk to some body in there mental health to help me with my transition to being a women, I think that i will eventually end up on HRT, the thing that scares me is what will happen if i should stop the hormones. At this time i can't afford any surgery

Wel should you stop there might be hot flashes for a few days... like women going through menopause have sometimes...

if your concern is stopping for surgery you might ask...
there are surgeons who say its not necessary, or switching to skin patches might be allowed...


hugs
