I think I might be transgender (mtf). blue state (kinda it’s Michigan), I’m 21 I’m worried that I’m too late to transition and I can’t reasonably pass / i think having a vagina would be important to me. What are my chances? If that makes any sense

in michigan it’s super easy to access hrt thru planned parenthood, they’re a great place to start. it’s never too late to start and pass, and 21 is still relatively young (even though ik it may not seem like it). if you have a queer community center near you they often have resources to connect you with other trans people and get information on lgbtq friendly providers and legal processes.

statistically u’d be starting hrt about 6 years before the average mtf transitioned starts :) also michigan might not be perfect but u shouldnt let perfection be the enemy of good. & u WILL pass if u start at 21, itll just take some time :)

That’s earlier than many of us start to transition. It’s never too late. Ever.

Congrats! And don’t worry, It’s never too late! If you’re looking to medically transition 21 is a perfectly fine age to do so. You’ll need to contact a doctor to discuss your options. Also speaking to a therapist / trained counselor would be a good idea for dealing with any concerns and difficulties with being trans.
