Full Transition vs. Partial Transition: The Options for Older Adults.

Full transition or partial transition? If you're over 35 and facing this decision, you know it's not simple. In this video, I break down: ✓ What partial transition actually means (it's not "half-assing" transition) ✓ Why older adults specifically struggle with this choice ✓ The complications of different partial transition scenarios ✓ The questions you need to answer (that have no easy answers) ✓ Why this decision requires professional support After 20 years working exclusively with transgender adults, I've seen every possible outcome of both full and partial transition. This is complex, high-stakes decision-making that you shouldn't navigate alone. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ABOUT DR.
