I do think that the use of hormones for gender reassignment should be prohibited as the technology is not yet there to control the levels in the body. If the levels become imbalanced severe lifelong vein and arterial damage can result. Treatments to repair this damage are expensive and quite painful.

Other side effects:

A blood clot in a deep vein (also known as deep vein thrombosis) or in your lungs

High levels of triglycerides, a type of fat found in the blood

Weight gain

High potassium levels

High blood pressure

Reduced libido

Feminizing hormone replacement therapy may also increase your risk for some chronic health conditions. Since estrogen affects how your body responds to insulin, it can lead to changes in your blood sugar levels and a greater risk for type 2 diabetes. Research into the impact of estrogen on your cardiovascular system is ongoing, and some studies have found a connection between estrogen therapy and a greater risk for heart disease and stroke. You may also face a greater risk of breast cancer after starting hormone replacement therapy.

Certain underlying health conditions may increase your risk of health complications related to the use of estrogen and testosterone-blocking hormones.
