Charleston Health Center offers the following services specifically for clients who need Transgender Hormone Therapy:

Transgender clients, regardless of age, gender identity, or gender expression, are welcome to visit any of our health centers to receive the preventative, sexual, and reproductive health care services we provide in an affirming environment.

For transgender clients ages 18 and over, we provide gender-affirming hormone therapy on an informed consent basis. This means that our providers will work with you to develop a plan of care based on your health care needs and transition goals. We do not require a mental health referral to initiate hormones.

We can also provide referrals to other transgender-affirming medical services and community resources. At this time, we do not provide pubertal suppression services for adolescents.

Here’s what you need to know about services for Transgender Hormone Therapy at this health center:

When you call for an appointment to begin or continue hormone therapy, one of our front desk staff members will help you schedule your appointment and talk with you about what to expect.

At your first appointment, our provider will take time to:

  • Review your medical history
  • Discuss your goals and expectations
  • Confirm your understanding of the potential risks and side effects
  • Answer any questions you have
  • Connect you to available community resources.

Your first appointment also allows our provider to order the necessary lab work to ensure you are medically eligible to begin hormone therapy.

Payment is expected at time of service unless other arrangements have been made.
