This website is
an information and support site for people experiencing Transsexualism,
and/or for their friends, families and work colleagues to be
educated about this medical condition.
|
This is NOT a website for
Transgender people such as
Transvestites and Cross-dressers. Some countries tend to
use the umbrella term "Transgender" to incorrectly
describe people suffering Transsexualism as also being
Transgender. Transsexualism is a
physiological condition and should not be placed under the same
category as purely psychological conditions. |
This website recommends that you closely follow a system
of care similar to the Harry Benjamin Standards of
Care Guidelines, in that you don't take
short-cuts, don't self-medicate, etc. 
This site has
a collection of information that can often be found
elsewhere on the World Wide Web, though some has been
created here from personal experience. It has been brought
together into one place
for easy reading to help you recognise, treat and make your
life easier through this difficult time.
Transsexualism effects not only people born into a
physically male body (Male to Female), but those also born
into female bodies (Female to Male), though not as common
(about 1 in 4)... they still exist. This website will try to
include as much information that relates to them as I can
manage, but as most of the information so far has been
sought for the personal transition of myself (Male to Female) it is skewed in that direction. In my links section,
I have a
link to FTM Australia for those (female to Male) men who need assistance.
