Do I have to tell my partner about my transition?

Do I have to tell my partner about my transition?

Whom you tell, when you tell them, and why you tell them is totally up to you.

Of course, people will begin to notice if your body starts to develop. However, who you involve and when you involve them is entirely up to you.

If you think your partner would benefit from some support or some counseling or advice then you can recommend that they book a counselling session to speak to a specialist.
