Gender reassignment is a way to look for clinics usually in larger cities, often associated with psychiatric clinics. The process takes years usually with a protocol so you know what to expect and how to grow into such a change. Support groups may be possible with those who have completed the process as well as those still in transition. There are a number of books that can be helpful to understand yourself and the process. The average Family Doctor probably is not well informed so it may be better to see if you can find the name of the closest Specialist or team that will need to assess you and accept you for the process before they start giving hormones

The best course of action is to contact a sexologist. My mother is one and she works with patients going through sex changes all the time. There are very few sexologist in the country however. I know there a couple in Dallas, and 2 in Amarillo Tx. They work along with the doctors to put the process in motion. I think most patients take a hormone replacement therapy for aa few years before the doctor will do the operation. There is a doctor in trinidad colorado that does 80% of the surgeries in the world. His name is Dr. Stanley Biber, and it may be good to contact his office as well.

Yes, because you would need the female hormones.
