Hello bobowo.
I think the answer to your question varies, depending on whether you're looking at this from a philosophical view versus a physical/psychological perspective. When you have GD, I think there's a reasonable chance that any mental changes brought about by pm will be favorable rather than negative. If you only do take pm for a short time, I suspect the changes (if any) will be temporary and not permanent. However, the experience of taking pm (and changing your estrogen/testosterone balance) may alter your perspective on your GD and gender identity completely.
Hypothetically, depending on the circumstances of your GD, pm may open a can of worms you're not prepared for. For some, taking pm may be a revelation of how much happier they are when taking estrogen and go on to realize that transitioning is in their best interests as far as their well-being goes.
