So a big part of pre-bottom-surgery for trans women is having to come off hormones for 2-6 weeks before surgery because "estrogen increases likelihood of blood clots".
But like, afab ppl who's primary sex hormone is estrogen aren't told to take estrogen blockers prior to major surgery.
Unless there's a very specific reason why people on synthetic estrogen are more at risk: this is fucked up actually.
GRS, medical, double standards Afficher plus
@noxy Exactly but like, I've not heard of this happening? I'd like to know if this is the case but doctors really have it out for trans women and like to construct additional hoops
