Correct me if I’m wrong, but if you are a man transitioning to a woman, and you’ve had bottom surgery, I assume that you wouldn’t have the equipment any more to produce male hormones on your own. So you’d still need hormone therapy if you were willing to ‘detransition’ back to a man. You said that hormone therapy for this purpose would be legal, but would Medicaid then pay for it?

I’m sorry for anyone going through this nightmare. It’s inhumane.
