Gender-affirming hormone therapy consists of either feminizing (estrogen) or masculinizing (testosterone) hormones. Many transgender people take hormone therapy as part of a gender transition to help their bodies and appearance align with their gender identity.
Hormone therapy can make you feel more at ease with yourself emotionally and physically. People have reported experiencing discomfort because they are unhappy with their appearance or their gender role. Perhaps your appearance and gender role conflict with your inner sense of gender identity. If this is how you feel, hormone treatment may help you overcome your distress.
Hormones are helpful in making your appearance more masculine or feminine. Beginning gender-affirming hormone therapy has many similarities to going through puberty. Although hormones taken in adulthood can help to keep your bones healthy, they can't alter your skeletal shape or your height.
