Hi... I'm posting this here because I have no idea where else to seek advice, I know that the doctors I have access to would just think I'm crazy. If no one here has answers for me, maybe you can direct me to another forum, or to a doctor who might be able and willing to help.

Well.

Here's the deal: my body is female, and what I want is to suppress, permanently or at least long-term, the hormone production that began at puberty, and so stop menstruation, shrink mammary glands, stop the problems that these hormones cause - hormones that as far as I can tell are unnecessary for me, are only troublesome. I know that this would result in my being infertile but that's not an issue for me - I've never wanted to reproduce and can't imagine that ever changing. I'm 25. Am in the US. If you have any advice please reply here or by email, [email protected] .

Thank you,

Ann

Ann,

For a few minutes I mistook you for the friend I am trying to help, thought she got an account here or something!

She is very much like you, wanting to stop her menstruation and she's only 5 years older. If you find the information/support/help you need, please let me know so I can pass along the information to her.

For Ann and Chibiabos,

As many of you already know, I am a male to female transsexual. I have done much research on the things that affect myself, but during all that searching I have come across a few sites dealing with female to male transsexuals. I have one link for the both of you that may prove usefull. It deals with both male to female, as well as female to male. The link may be found here at: http://www.susans.org/ . There are links on this site to many other sites of similar interests. If I find any more links I will post them here for you.

Christina,

Thanks ever so much. I've put in an account and PM'd an admin.

What a great community we have here.
