The governor in the state I live in has basically shut down transitioning for all ages. You reach out to the psychiatrist they will not contact you back. The only mental health you can get is like a PA and they want actual Dr of psychiatry. Reached out to 14 different providers only two got back and those two don’t meet the guidelines as I understand them. So now I will try to take what ever letters I can get go to Thailand try to get cleared with Thi Psychiatrist. Now I have to try to get clearance from cardiology and get cleared by cardiology in Thailand also. Bottom line can’t get appointments. What they want is you to buy your way to the top Dr.

In my opinion the Drs. have it tied up. They want you to have to start transitioning in their program at the bottom and take years and thousands of dollars to get to surgery then pay some outlandish amount for surgery. They don’t want to help you if you’re trying to go outside of the US for bottom surgery. I totally understand the reasoning if you’re young. But at my age I would die of old age before I could get to surgery.
