Medical Transition

Medical Transition Group

The transgender medical transition discussion group is open to those transgender persons over the age of 18 who are choosing to pursue or considering medical intervention in their transition. This may include hormone therapy, voice coaching, or surgeries such as full and zero depth vaginoplasty, phalloplasty, metoidioplasty, mastectomy, breast augmentation, hysterectomy, orchiectomy, labiaplasty, vocal cord alteration, or facial feminizing or masculinizing procedures.

This group is available for discussing experiences related to medical transition only. This group is not a forum for DIY medical transition. Neither Patchwork nor any of its groups, officers, employees, or volunteers shall be construed to offer medical advice or diagnosis, and do not condone, promote, or recommend any medical intervention or provider. Please seek advice or care only from qualified medical professionals.

This group is hosted via Zoom. All Patchwork rules and guidelines for support groups apply.
