I live in the rough part of town in Los Angeles, much tougher than expected to transition. Been on hrt for 4 years 3 months, and still not transitioned. I'm just waiting to get more equity on the house, and a pay increase on future job prospects within the same local gov't agency, just different sub agency. Yup, we all have different timelines and obstacles, affecting us.

I've been transitioning for about six months, counting from the date I made my decision.

I've been on HRT for a month now.
