I'm a married woman. I don't embarrass easily, but I've discovered recently that there's nothing more mortifying than not having to do a pregnancy test before a hospital procedure because you haven't had sex in ages.
@fesshole big difference with the US, where they'll do the test (because you might be lying) them charge insurance (or you) probably several hundred dollars for it (which with insurance will be negotiated down to under $50 most likely).
I say this because someone I went to college with had to pee on a stick recently before surgery. She's both trans and in her late 50s.
