What People Say About FOLX

"I've had such a positive experience getting my hormones through FOLX. To me, HRT has improved the quality of my life in countless ways. I spent 8 years on a host of different psych meds, and nothing ever helped like just being on T has helped. Hormones made my life better, but before FOLX, it felt difficult to engage regularly with medical settings and all that comes with navigating a fatphobic + transphobic system. FOLX made that possible for me and I'll always be thankful. I'm happy to share my experiences to help encourage anyone who may feel unsure about accessing this as a resource."

"FOLX made HRT possible for me to start and continue due to life circumstances — first living in a rural area, and then secondly having to move suddenly to another state. And I'd like to share that aspect for people who may may feel they lack access or are afraid of losing access if they started, as FOLX made it easy to join and to switch physicians fairly seamlessly."

FOLX Member

"I was born before and grew up at a time when transgender, or any gender and sexuality was not understood, shared or even contemplated. The word transition did not exist and many like me grew up alone, confused and dealing with urges none of us understood and so few, so few made it out alive into the light during their lifetime. I lived three lives for 50 years and yet here I am helping others."
