FTM's and Transitioning

Julien · 04-30-2012, 05:02 PM

I hope this is the right place to explain my situation. I am not as far along in my transition as I would like, but I wanted to post because I had a hysto three months ago and my ovaries were removed. I do not do hormone replacement therapy and am not on T (as of right now). I was told that taking my ovaries out would put me immediately into menopause. I do not have any of the symptoms of menopause and wondered if anyone else experience that? I see no need to do HRT because I feel fine the way I am. I don't know when I will be able to do the T because there are so many hurdles to overcome in my neck of the woods. I just wondered if anyone else had similar stories dealing with hystos and hormones. Thank you for any comments.
