Before I begin, I must first state that I am not saying whether or not anyone should undergo Hormone Replacement Therapy (or HRT), just discussing my perspective on it.
I am a transgender woman and from my perspective, HRT is necessary to me. It has helped me to feel right in my body, my facial features and body appearance is feminizing, I am losing body hair and developing female breasts, my emotions are calming and I feel better about myself, most importantly stress caused from being in a body that I don't feel is the right body. However, I feel like by taking this medicine, this one medicine that gives me the will to live, I am betraying God.
