Are there any companies that health care covers HRT for transitioning?

I’m a MtF transgirl, looking for some help since I can’t afford all that stuff on my own. Any help appreciated.
Yes, I’d like to have injections or patches!

The actually hormone pills aren’t very expensive at all.
The only thing you really need your insurance to cover is therapy. A month supply is like 25 bucks.
I’m not sure though if you plan on having injections instead.
Dear, I’m a FTM. Hormones are pretty inexpensive really. The real expense is surgery. Good luck for you, MTF surgery is much cheaper and better results than FTM surgery. But dear, the hormones, are as cheap as a cup of coffee a day… cheaper actually.
As others have said:
HRT doesn’t have to be expensive.
My injectable, a multi-dose vial that lasts 5-6 months, costs me less than $40!
If you go the injectable route the key is using a compounding pharmacy. I use Anazao Health in Las Vegas. You call, set up an account and then have your doctor fax them your prescription. The vial will be shipped to your door. Just so you know….. A vial from a major drug maker and sold through a retail pharmacy will run you more than $200!
You can order anti-androgens online and typically save 50-60%.
HRT doesn’t have to be expensive. And the money saved can go to pay for other things…. if you know what I mean.
I also use Anazao Health in Las Vegas.

As Radgal said set up your account then have your Dr. fax your prescription and your vial will be sent to you.
