I have a wonderful lady doctor who is very open minded. I haven't shared with her yet, but I probably should at some point soon. Good point on the psychotherapy. As I hear, it is exceedingly expensive and not very effective, unless you are binary-transgender. Otherwise, a lot of money is wasted on effectively being called a nutcase.

We expect Male-to-Eunuch to be included in the next edition of the WPATH Standards of Care, which will be published at the end of next month. It should also be included in the DSM-5, though that's not due for another year plus. There are already a number of professionals who are willing to work with you. Your profile shows that you are in California, where there are some good people for you.
