SRS or GRS / Sex or Gender Reassignment Surgery starts with many sessions with a gender specialist trained therapist. If after enough time the therapist actually diagnoses you with GID (Gender Identity Disorder) they may refer you to and endocriminologist for Hormone Replacement Therapy. It all starts and ends with the therapist. Answer: Taking the steps for SRS & GRS is an often confusing one. The best way to start to get info is to go to your local lesbian/gay comunnity center. Dont be discouraged if they refer you to someone/where else. I have found with personal experience that different centers have slightly different info depending on the local community. But they are always understanding and willing and hapy to help. Good luck :)
