It's not really that distinct, no. Not unless you're transmed and believe pre and post op trans people need to divided from each other.

Youre free to use whatever terms you'd like to use for yourself, but transsexual was how people referred to all transgender people until the term transgender took off in the late 90s.

You might say that term is a bit of a time warp.
