New Year's Resolution
The beginning of a New Year is always a great time to make a resolution (or two) and make changes in your life.
Rarely though, does a human being have a chance to make a resolution as momentous as changing one's gender.
Indirectly, it happened to me.
Even though, I had decided it was time for me to MtF gender transition from part-time cross dresser to full time transgender woman, I had not started my hormone therapy.
As luck would have it, I received my first prescription of estrogen just around the middle of December. I decided to wait until New Years Eve to take the first pill with Liz at my side. This was nearly four years ago and I was to start HRT on a minimum dosage for the first six months to check for any adverse reactions. After the first six months, I proceeded to have my dosage increased to what my Doctor perceived was still a safe dosage. Eventually I switched to the Estradiol patches which I am on today.
As New Years Eve approaches again, Liz and I will take a moment to remember the momentous occasion a few years ago.
Little did we know what the future would bring with things such as changing my gender markers, etc.
At least one reader of Cyrsti's Condo (Marcia) is ready to embark on a similar journey and reacted to a comment Connie sent in.
I will post Connie's answer in my next post.
