What is HRT?

HRT, or Hormone Replacement Therapy, is a medical treatment that involves the administration of hormones. HRT can be administered through various methods including pills, patches, creams, gels, injections, and implants, depending on the specific medical needs and preferences of the patient.

For transgender or gender non-conforming individuals, HRT can align secondary sexual characteristics with their gender identity. This could involve testosterone for transgender men or estrogen with or without anti-androgens for transgender women.

HRT should be prescribed and monitored by qualified medical professionals due to risks and side effects associated with hormone therapy. Routine testing and monitoring is required for HRT.
