    Typically though, for mtf post-orcheictomy and post-feminization from hormones, many women reduce the dosage of estrogen. After it becomes apparent that the major physical changes have stopped while taking the highest safe dosages, continued usage of estrogen suppliments is no longer for transitional purpose. At that point, its taken and prescribed for the same purpose as any other CIS woman, and therefore can often be reduced in dosage so as to preserve kidney function better.

    All i’m saying is that, at some point, I’d prefer to be done thinking of myself as “transitioning” to just “woman” or at least post-transition in a medical treatment sense (y-chromosomal issues outside of hrt are obviously unrelated, like ex. Prostate cancer etc).
