Gender identity disorder, male-to-female transsexualism (person who is born as a man but adapts to a woman's lifestyle, sees himself as a woman, and feels like a woman instead of a man
Osteoporosis caused by lack of estrogen before menopause
Estrogen has a lot of effects on men. Many times, it helps "soften up" an abrasive personality, helps calm down aggression, and can somewhat mellow a man out a bit.
Also, a lot of people don't, but men generally have a regular hormonal swing, approximately ever 2 weeks. It's almost like our period. Some people have it more often, causing mood swings, more aggressive behavior, depression, and much sexual frustration. The other chemicals in birth control help regulate the hormones, and creates more balance.
There is a lot more to it than you think. Talk to any female on the pill. Their mood changes, their period becomes almost perfectly regular, and they mature a bit faster, mentally and physically.

What is Turner syndrome? Turner syndrome (TS) is a chromosomal condition that describes girls and women with common features that are caused by complete or partial absence of the second sex chromosome. The syndrome is named after Dr. Henry Turner, who was among the first to describe its features in the 1930s. TS occurs in approximately 1 in2,000 live female births and in as many as 10% of all miscarriages.

im born a male yes, and its not that i wanna be female.. i feel as if i'm supposed to be. and i looked into male hormones... but i have an elevated lvl and if i did that it would lead to liver failure.
so i have to take anti-androgens to lower testostorone.. and then estrogen to well... raise estrogen levels.... but this is expensive.....
working on cars is something i enjoy doing... but its more of an escape from normal life...when i'm working on my car... i'm not depressed... or anything.... thats why i go through so many cars.... do all the little things without spending too much money... i wanna do the big things... but i get rid of it.. because there are far more important things i need to do that cost even more than workign on the car...
