How do you do it? In Italy you’re just fucked if you want it to be covered. And also the economy fucking sucks.

    I saw you’re paying out of pocket srs, so I assume suporn clinic? I feel like that’s the way to go… I feel like every insurancussy is a compromise on one thing or another.

        ah that’s real, I know someone else who lost raffle for years and settled on chettawut.

        I’m not sure how well mcginn kept up with other US surgeons, but she was like the only other good US surgeon back in my day (I went to bowers who is like, OK at best)

          Having seen recent results i think she has kept up plus since she doesn’t take insurance for now I don’t have to wait too long, unlike if I tried to go with someone else, and being 15 years hrt I just want srs done with so that was a plus.

                how young? imo anyone who has been on hrt for 15+ years is basically an eldertran even if you started young.

                good on you for taking care of your grandfather :)

                    nice! I transitioned at 16 and it’s been over half my life also ^.^

                    that’s so cool your aunt transitioned over 30 years ago! I never had contact with anyone like that, I’m used to being one of the longest transitioned members of trans communities at this point.
