Hello dear team,
I am a male who has been independently taking female hormones for 4 months (4mg of estradiol as a dosage gel, still without Androcur). Now I am looking for a doctor within a 50 km radius in the areas of Giessen, Marburg, Fulda, who would be willing to check my hormone and liver levels. I do not want to confide in my general practitioner. I have already been rejected by an endocrinologist.
A few details about myself: I am 49 years old, weigh 77 kg with a height of 179 cm. I am a non-smoker and do not drink alcohol, and I also do endurance training 2-3 times a week.
Please help me, I would be willing to pay for the blood tests myself if necessary.
Thank you in advance,
Best regards
Hello dear inquirer,
you can have this blood test done by any doctor (family doctor or internist). If you do not want to confide in your current family doctor, you can contact another colleague for this specific case. Since you will be covering the costs of the examination (blood draw and lab costs) yourself, no one will turn you away.
Do you want to take hormones to undergo gender reassignment? In this case, I would recommend consulting the following specialists, as the treatment of transsexualism should be carried out over a longer period in collaboration with urologists, gynecologists, psychologists, endocrinologists, ENT doctors, and plastic surgeons.
All the best and Happy Easter!
Kind regards,
Dr. K. Hamann
