What is the process of transition for a transsexual?
The process is roughly the same regardless of whether you are male-to-female or female-to-male. You will begin living in your preferred role (at first part time, but when you’re ready it will be full time); you will be assessed by a team, usually consisting of at least one psychologist and one psychiatrist; you will likely take hormones to change your body; you will change your legal documents to reflect your new name; you will inform friends and family; you may find that surgery is necessary.
