She said it’s like a pretty big deal to get one and you need 2 psychiatrists to sign off that you are absolutely sure you want it done and you won’t change your mind. She said with my autism diagnosis and other mental health issues it might be even more difficult for them to know that I am absolutely sure I don’t want kids. She said she can’t do it since I’ll need the trans services and support that she is not familiar with. and She refereed me to one of the big hospitals that have trans centers and support. We are moving away from these hospitals in a few months and my mom is pretty stubborn when it comes to driving long distances. So I’m not sure what to do. There is a hospital where I’m moving to that does surgeries but I looked online and I couldn’t find exactly what I was looking for. But I’ll probably just wait until I move to talk to my new medical and mental health team.
I’m not exactly surprised or disappointed that this is so difficult. A lot of trans guys don’t get the full surgery because of costs and other similar issues I’m having.
