This is all theoretical at this point, but I am in a long distance relationship I one day would like to make short distance more often, possibly full time. However, I am in another country, Canada specifically, and I wonder if anyone could tell me what the monthly costs of MtF HRT typically are in Southern California, if I were to pay for everything out of pocket without assistance.

OK thank you very much! That, wow, much more reasonable than I thought!

Yes...if you're getting generics. it should be a few hundred US dollars out of pocket per year at most. Make sure you buy in bulk as much as possible. You're usually limited to getting a 90-day supply at a time, but make sure you're getting 90-day supplies. Also make sure you go with places that generally sell drugs more cheaply...for instance, Costco is usually pretty cheap (although you may have to be a Costco member to use Costco). If you go with a traditional pharmacy, do sign up for their clubs, because being in those clubs can provide meaningful discounts.
