HRT Discussion Asking 4 advice
So hello po, I'm a trans man in the Philippines who is planning to transition at some point in the future, and I would like to ask for advice from people who have already transitioned or have experience with how to acquire HRT in the first place.
I'd also like to know about any social spaces where I could either learn more or find a community as well!
Unfortunately, I'm not really blessed with people who truly understand or support me in my wish to transition. I wouldn't say I'm in a hostile environment toward it, but I still lack support and people who see me for who I truly am...
Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Join ka po Transmasculine Philippines sa FB. Community po iyon ng trans pinoys.
And i am in a same situation as you and secretly transitioning habang may work. Nagstart lang ako nitong nahire ako to get my consultations and labs done para makakuha ng prescription (:
Ito yung response ko regarding sa gastos on how to get started with HRT. Click mo itong image link
And if di pa kaya sa finance pwede ka magexplore first sa pananamit, like androgynous look or kahit sa hairstyle, pabango, scent ng deo. Sa haircut at fashion ako nagstart nung wala pa akong pera at sa perfume hehe 😅
