Call and ask your insurance agency about privacy. For me I am able to use my insurance without my parents even being able to see the provider. Just the date and dollar amount. So I just lie about what type of visit it was. But other agencies and states will differ so you should ask. But even if insurance isn’t an option many hrt clinics have sliding scale payment plans. And also what 1 Said like makeup and nail polish and cloths can help as well.

I’m not sure I can help you there tbh. I’m on hrt but I’m still closeted so I haven’t dealt with any of those things yet. Also my family dynamic is pretty different than yours it sounds like.

No problem I love being able to help other trans people with this when I can🫶🫶🫶I spent a long time figuring out how to keep my hrt secret from my family so that one I definitely have experience with lol.
