Are DOCTORS really pushing the hrt-makes-you-sterile lie, I'm not even shocked just really disappointed

    The healthcare staff in charge of gender affirming care in the Nordic countries are honestly wack. I heard a story from a trans woman here in Denmark at one of the gender clinics who was recommended a circumcision instead of an orchiectomy to alleviate dysphoria when she specifically wanted to get a referral for an orchiectomy😵‍💫

    Yaa they are truly awful. They can’t be trusted and the usual way to go about it is to never disclose anything unnecessary. Especially when it comes to the approval process here you should never disclose any mental health issues as you are then likely to be denied gender affirming care.

    I was met with a threatening attitude from the doctor at the clinic I go to for DIYing. She told me that if I didn’t follow their HRT regimen it could have consequences.

    That type of person is downright fucking evil. I really think illegal-to-say

    It's so fucking stupid too because of course dysphoria and such cause mental health problems, transition helps that!!! And plus people just have mental health issues unrelated sometimes, needing a clean bill of health is pure gatekeeper dogshit.

    Can confirm. I'm a med student here in Denmark and my fellow students know nothing about trans people. I know some straight up transphobes studying medicine too, but mostly I've just heard ignorant/misinformed takes, although luckily it's not something that's talked about often.
