Male-to-Female (MTF) Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) involves using medications to induce physical changes that align more closely with a female gender identity. These medications typically include estrogens, anti-androgens, and sometimes progesterone.
Desired Effects (Goals of HRT)
These effects typically develop gradually over months to years:
Physical Changes:
Breast development (often modest and varies widely)
Redistribution of body fat (more to hips, thighs, and buttocks)
Reduction in muscle mass and strength
Softer, less oily skin
Decreased body and facial hair growth (but not full removal; electrolysis or laser may still be needed)
Decreased spontaneous erections and libido
Reduced testicular volume and sperm production
Psychological Changes:
Improved mood and sense of well-being
Decreased gender dysphoria
Possible changes in emotional range or expression
Side Effects and Risks
These vary by individual and depend on dosage, medical history, and monitoring:
Common Side Effects:
Weight gain
Fatigue or mood swings (early in treatment)
Reduced sexual function (libido and erectile function)
Hot flashes (especially if anti-androgens suppress testosterone too quickly)
Serious Risks:
Increased risk of blood clots (deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism) โ especially with oral estrogens
Increased risk of stroke
Elevated triglycerides and changes in cholesterol levels
Liver strain or dysfunction
Gallbladder disease
Bone density loss (if testosterone is suppressed but estrogen levels are too low)
Infertility โ often permanent if sustained over time
Monitoring and Management
Regular check-ups are essential to:
Monitor hormone levels (estradiol, testosterone)
Assess liver function, lipid levels, and blood count
Screen for blood clots, cardiovascular risks, and bone health

I'm really sorry you're facing that possibilityโitโs incredibly difficult to navigate a deeply personal journey like transitioning when you're in an unsupportive environment. If you're caught doing MTF HRT by family members who oppose it, here are steps you can consider, depending on your specific situation:
1. Assess Your Safety First
Immediate risk: If you feel physically unsafe or fear violence, remove yourself from the situation if possible and seek a safe place.
Verbal/emotional hostility: If the conflict is verbal but not dangerous, stay calm and avoid escalating the situation.
Your safetyโphysical and mentalโis the top priority.
2. Pause and Reflect Before Reacting
You donโt owe anyone an immediate explanation or defense.
Breathe, ground yourself, and remind yourself that your identity is valid, regardless of their reaction.
3. Decide How to Communicate (If Safe)
If it feels safe, you might:
Express your feelings calmly and clearly.
Let them know this is a well-considered decision, not a whim.
Avoid trying to "convince" themโsome minds won't change quickly.
4. Set Boundaries
You are allowed to set limits around what you discuss.
You can say:
โI understand you donโt agree, but I need you to respect my choices.โ
If you rely on them for housing or finances, this gets trickier (see below).
5. Find Support Systems
Seek out LGBTQ+ support groups, online communities (like Redditโs r/asktransgender), or a therapist if possible.
Some organizations offer help finding housing or emergency shelters if youโre kicked out (e.g., The Trevor Project, LGBTQ centers).
6. Make a Contingency Plan
If you're dependent on your family:
Consider pausing HRT temporarily if discovery would lead to harm.
Explore discreet methods (e.g., injections, storage options) if you choose to continue.
Work toward financial or residential independence if possible, so you can resume treatment safely later.
7. Long-Term Perspective
This momentโthough painfulโdoesnโt define the end of your journey. Many trans people start and pause HRT due to life circumstances and later resume successfully when the time is right.
Would you like help drafting a message to a family member, or finding local support resources?

Thanks for trusting me with this. Letโs start with your second question, then Iโll help you with a message you could use for coming out.
Which Sibling Might React More Positively?
Based on what you've shared:
| Sibling | Strength | Challenge |
|---|---|---|
| Younger sister | Possibly understands gender expression | Has a prejudice against biological males |
| Younger brother | Respects you as a human | Discomfort with sexual minorities |
My opinion: The younger brother is slightly more likely to respond constructively.
Why? Respect is a strong foundation. Even if he doesnโt like sexual minorities, his recognition of your humanity means he might at least listen and not dismiss you outright. Prejudice rooted in gender (like your sister's) can make it harder to separate you from their ideas of what a "male" is supposed to be.
That said, it also depends heavily on:
Your prior relationship with each of them
Their emotional maturity
Whether they feel threatened by change or curious about understanding it
Example Coming Out Message (Customizable)
Hereโs a message you might send or say to someone like your younger brother:
"Hey [Name], I want to tell you something important about me. Iโve realized over time that Iโm not a guy in the way the world expects. Iโm feminine, and Iโm non-binary โ which means I donโt fully identify as male or female. This is something thatโs brought me a lot of clarity and peace, and Iโm sharing it because I care about being real with you. I know this might be new or even uncomfortable, but Iโm still the same person โ just more honest and happier being myself. Iโm not asking for anything except your respect, which I know youโve always given me. Thanks for hearing me out."
I can also tailor this for your sister or make it shorter, more emotional, or more neutral depending on what tone you want.
Would you like a version thatโs more casual or more firm in tone?
