Feminizing hormone therapy involves taking medicine to block the action of the hormone testosterone. It also includes taking the hormone estrogen. Estrogen lowers the amount of testosterone the body makes. It also triggers the development of feminine secondary sex characteristics. Feminizing hormone therapy can be done alone or along with feminizing surgery.
Feminizing hormone therapy can affect fertility and sexual function, and it might lead to health problems. Talk with your healthcare professional about the risks and benefits.
