mtf hormones and having kids?

Greetings to ya all,

I'm not sure if this is the correct forum (first time around here), but I'm sure kind moderators can correct me if I erred

So, the question; my husband is planning on starting the hormones to change from male to female - no surgery is planned or wanted by him. And I wonder/worry, whether this will stop us from having kids? Does anyone here have knowledge or experience, whether the hormone therapy will change his biology so much, that we can't concieve anymore?

There's a bunch of other questions (most coming back to "couldn't you have told a bit earlier than 10 years in to the relationship?"), but that's the one I'm most concerned. The rest is just perceptions, but I always imagined that one day we could have kids. And if that option is taken off the board completely, I'm not sure I'm alright with it.

Thanks for any advice in advance!

 

Thank you! By gods that was a speedy reply; I am trying to learn more about all this when hubby (he? She? More things to get used to) aint around, since he feels akward talking about it. Thus I have to be stealthy and fast with the close-button.

Another question then, while able to post;
How fast is the transition? Are we talking of weeks? Months? And how much will it affect the mental side? I'd imagine that the bouts of depression will be less, due to having less stress about appearances, but will the hormones affect actual temperament or personality?
