After several months of using PM and SP with little significant results I finally came out to my Psychologist, Psychiatrist, and General Practitioner within the Veterans Administration. To my surprise, they all have been extremely supportive and have cleared me to receive HRT. All I have to do now is wait on the Endocrinologist to schedule an appointment to see how he/she wants to treat me. I am so grateful that the VA has adopted this new policy to help us Transgender patients receive medical treatment.
I have been so reluctant to seek help because I thought it would be taboo within the VA. Again, to my surprise all of them have made it extremely comfortable for me. I am posting this to encourage other veterans to check out getting these benefits as well. Everyone that has been involved has treated me with dignity and respect.
Kindest regards,
KellyT
