Hormone replacement therapy, or HRT, is a relatively common medical treatment used in many contexts. Despite what many may think, this is not a new or experimental practice, nor is it exclusive to transgender individuals. Hormone replacement therapy has been used for over half a century, starting its use in the 1960s and becoming widely popular in treating menopause in AFAB (assigned female at birth) patients.

In this page, we will cover how HRT can be used in transgender or non-binary patents for gender affirmation. Certain hormones and medications can help feminize or masculinize even someone who has gone through an undesirable puberty.

Here are the sections for Transfeminine and Transmasculine HRT:
