Basically, our body has both male and female hormones but their levels are unbalanced. So, changing bodies after getting a gender transition or hormone therapy program has to use hormone replacement to improve physical characteristics. There are 2 important hormones which are used in the process as follows:

  Male hormones (Androgen, Testosterone) are the hormones which help to make voice deeper, increase muscle and stimulate hair growth.

  Female hormones (Estrogen, Progesterone) are the hormones which help to make voice higher, increase breast size and smoothen skin.

There are 2 types of hormones therapy, as follows:

1. Feminizing hormone therapy or male-to-female hormone therapy helps to improve appearance looking more feminine. This process uses Estrogen and Progesterone for boosting hormone levels and uses Anti-androgen to suppress Androgen.

2. Masculinizing hormone therapy or female-to-male hormone therapy helps to improve appearance looking more masculine. This process uses Androgen and Testosterone for boosting hormone level.

** Hormone therapy should be held responsible by a doctor because if the treatment is processed in the wrong way, it will be affected by health risks and side effects which are thrombosis and liver problems directly. So, getting hormone therapy would be better and safer if there is a doctor to take care of all cases. The doctor will give a consultation which is related to your individual condition and give hormone replacement appropriately.
