    Gender-Affirming Hormone Therapy at Moolchand: Expert Care by Dr. Bhawna Attri

    Gender-Affirming Hormone Therapy at Moolchand: Expert Care by Dr. Bhawna Attri


    At Moolchand, we believe that healthcare must be respectful, compassionate, and tailored to the unique needs of every individual. For transgender and gender-diverse people, the journey to accessing the right medical care can be challenging, often marked by stigma, delays, and misunderstanding. Recognizing this, Moolchand’s Endocrine Centre proudly offers safe and inclusive Gender-Affirming Hormone Therapy (GAHT), led by Dr. Bhawna Attri, Eminent Endocrinologist trained from prestigious AIIMS New Delhi. With more than a decade of experience, including specialized training in transgender healthcare, Dr. Attri provides world-class expertise delivered with dignity and respect.

    Why Acceptability Matters in Transgender Healthcare

    At Moolchand, we understand that true care goes beyond treatment—it requires acceptability, meaning healthcare that respects identity and individuality. Our team ensures:

    • You are addressed by your chosen name and pronouns.

    • Privacy and confidentiality at every step, from registration to follow-up.

    • Clear, simple explanations of all treatment options.

    • Collaborative goal-setting that reflects your personal journey.

    Our goal is to create a safe, supportive space where every patient feels valued and understood.

    What Is Gender-Affirming Hormone Therapy?

    Gender-affirming hormone therapy helps align one’s physical body with their gender identity. Depending on individual goals, GAHT may include:

    • Feminizing therapy: Estrogen with testosterone blockers to encourage breast development, softer skin, reduced body hair, and fat redistribution.

    • Masculinizing therapy: Testosterone to deepen the voice, promote facial/body hair, increase muscle mass, and stop menstruation.

    • Puberty suppression: For adolescents, when appropriate, to delay unwanted changes and provide time for decisions.

    • Non-binary regimens: Customized, flexible approaches to suit unique needs.

    Dr. Bhawna Attri’s Approach

    Dr. Bhawna Attri combines scientific expertise with compassionate care. Each treatment plan is personalized and developed after thorough consultation. The pathway typically includes:

    • Confidential consultation focused on personal goals.

    • Baseline assessment with history, physical exam, and lab tests.

    • Clear discussion of benefits, risks, and fertility options.

    • Safe initiation of therapy with individualized dosing.

    • Regular monitoring through lab tests and follow-up visits.

    • Integrated support including referrals for fertility counseling, dermatology, voice therapy, or surgery if needed.

    Safety and Monitoring

    Safety is central to every treatment plan. Dr. Bhawna Attri follows international best practices, ensuring:

    • Evidence-based dosing tailored to each individual.
