What To Expect
All Planned Parenthood patients are asked to provide their preferred name and pronouns, in addition to legal names, at check-in so that we can serve our patients with the highest level of courtesy.
At your initial visit, your clinician will discuss with you the informed consent process, your gender identity history, and will review both the positive effects and possible risk factors for hormone therapy. A comprehensive history will be obtained and reviewed. The clinician will perform routine lab work to make sure you are a healthy candidate for hormone therapy.
In order to continue receiving your hormones, you will need to schedule periodic appointments at Planned Parenthood for routine lab work and monitoring. Your clinician will determine the best follow up schedule based upon your needs. Reaching your individualized transition goals will be a gradual process, and your clinician will discuss in-depth what that may look like.
Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas is proud to be your sexual healthcare provider in every way. In addition to hormone therapy services, please know that well-checks, STD testing and treatment, HIV testing, clinical breast exams, cervical cancer screenings, pregnancy testing, and other healthcare services are also available for transgender patients.
Based on the results of the visit, most patients have prescribed hormones that day. Together, you and your clinician will make the best decision for you.
