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 😅

Takk for det! Ja selvfølgelig er det best å gjør det gjennom riksen. Og Æ mener at det blir ganske greit på utredningstimer. Æ vet hva de leter etter. Æ er ganske kjent med icd10.

Men det er iallfall godt å vite at det finnes andre muligheter.
