Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am a 34-year-old male taking 2 mg of Progynova, 50 mg of Spironolactone and 1 mg of Finax. How much time will it take to transform from male to female?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

We are elated to have you onboard at icliniq.

The effects and timeline of Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) can vary from person to person. In male-to-female (MTF) HRT, the aim is to introduce hormones such as estrogen and anti-androgens (like Spironolactone) to facilitate feminizing effects. The specific dosages and medications used may vary based on individual needs and body responses. Typically, changes resulting from MTF HRT occur gradually over months to years. Some of the potential effects may include breast development, redistribution of body fat, reduced muscle mass, soft skin, and changes in libido and sexual function. Additionally, there may be changes in emotional well-being and mental health. It is important to note that the full effects of HRT can take several years, and not all individuals will experience the same changes or to the same extent. The pace of changes will depend on factors such as genetics, overall health, age, and hormone levels. Remember, every person's experience with HRT is unique, so it is essential to have open and honest communication with your doctor throughout the process. They will be able to best guide you based on your individual needs and goals.

I hope this helps.

Thank you.
