There is hormone therapy shots and also surgery if truck driver wage usually can afford this I think.. In the mean time there is hormone infused body wash and cologne.

Seek a gender therapist if you can find out. It might take a few visits, but from what I hear, they usually write a slip you can take to your doctor and then get the hormones you request. I hope Rhonda chimes in, she is more an expert on this stuff then I am.

Finding the therapist and doctor is the hard part. I already know what I want to do, but am not sure how to find the ways to do it. Also, Anne, I'm a new truck driver and a single parent, so wages are just enough to run my family and anything extra has to be saved for and budgeted

Daniel,

The best way to find a therapist would be to go to your nearest community center and ask where and when they hold transgender support meetings and attend them, there they may direct you to qualified therapist.

Not to be uncouth but at 29 years old, you are not a boy but a male Just saying, when you go to the therapist, it would be wise not to say you feel like boy, but rather identify as male. Man is a social construct, male is the gender you identify as.:)

Agreeing with Wolfiepa; once you find a qualified gender therapist, they can help you with the "road map" and guide you step by step into getting where you need to be.

Fist step, find a gender therapist, .... then the hormones,.... and after, if you decide, there are surgeries. But first, the gender therapist. Without this step, the rest is a no-go.

I say boy because my mindset is very youthful in this particular area. Sorry if I offended. There are no lbgt friendly therapists within a hundred miles of my home and I'm only there once a month to begin with. Thanks for the advice. I think I'm going to try to find a support group who may know a little better the options for my situation. Thanks again.
