Psychologist explains transgenderism, transsexualism, crossd...
Hopefully in a positive way. That is the whole idea. When estrogen is given to a gender dysphoric genetic male and testosterone to a gender dysphoric genetic female the usual result is an overwhelming feeling of well-being and an often dramatic increase in ability to function. Yes it is true.

Egg donation story - questions
No, I didn't get particularly emotional that I noticed. However, I've rarely had PMS-type emotional reactions to hormones I did have more cramps than usual when bleeding. So I'd regard the effect of the hormones as making any normal reactions more intense.

What Should I Know About Hormones?

s.s.tg FAQ: Transsexual & Transgenderist Issues
A general answer to this question is that you should know as much as possible. Hormones are powerful drugs, and have potentially serious side effects. This is why it's such a good idea to work through an endocrinologist when starting on hormones; he will check your medical history and your general health, and will work with you to monitor your progress while maintaining your physical safety. I strongly recommend doing some background reading before you visit the doctor.

What About Herbal Hormones?

s.s.tg FAQ: Transsexual & Transgenderist Issues
Some herbal products contain or mimic hormones, and some people feel that this is a viable alternative to going through the medical profession. I don't recommend this approach for the following reasons: Hormones carry sufficient health risks that medical monitoring is a very good idea. Along with the general concern about side effects, medical monitoring is important to establish a correct dosage.

Are there hormones in the herbs?

FAQ (Frequently asked questions)
No. Some herbs contain phyto-oestrogens (plant-steroids), but these are not the same as human hormones. Sometimes we may use a homeopathic called progesteronum to encourage the body to produce more progesterone, but this is only done on a case by case scenario if necessary. Your therapist will communicate with you and let you know if they feel this is appropriate. Because it is a homeopathic preparation this is thousands of times less concentrated than any synthetic medication you would take.

I love your hair! How was your transition and how did you get it to the state it is now?

Thanks! I wore braids for 6-8 weeks, took them out trimmed about 2 inches off, wore a wig for 2 weeks and got braids again. I did this cycle for a little over a year. When I came out of braids, I started off with 5 inches in Feb. 2001. I ended up cutting 3 inches off to make sure all the relaxed hair was gone and to even it out. Plus it was a bit damaged from wearing micros (I didn't properly take care of my own hair).

What Should I Expect When I Transition?

s.s.tg FAQ: Transsexual & Transgenderist Issues
Transition is the single biggest issue facing transsexuals. It is bringing your whole life into alignment with your internal self-perception. And life is what this is about; everything else either leads up to this or builds on top of it. The only reasonable diagnosis I've ever heard for TS is a successful transition--not only that you do it, but that you settle comfortably into your new life, and you wake up one morning with the realization that there is no way that you could ever go back.

FAQ // LifeSpan MD
Hormones are proteins secreted by specialized cells that tell other cells what to do. By age 50 most of our hormones decrease by up to 20 to 30%. These hormonal signals are necessary to maintain cellular health. Hormonal depletion is correlated with the onset of age related diseases such as osteoporosis, diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer's disease, and atherosclerosis. It is necessary then to maintain appropriate balance between all hormones to optimize health and minimize disease onset.
