I’ve been saying, “I was born without a uterus”, which so far seems to answer honestly without directly outing myself as trans.

Any thoughts on how to best navigate this? Ideally without disclosing I’m trans 😅

    right!? I find it so strange they are treating my prostate like it’s in a cis man’s body … one guess is maybe the time before transition adds risk because there was exposure to male levels of androgens? But then … I’m already on the treatment for prostate cancer … something just doesn’t make sense here and it feels like blind policy being implemented on the assumption that I’m “male”, exactly the kind of mistaken view I don’t want to perpetuate by disclosing I’m trans.
