Just discovered part of my HRT has been discontinued due to an AI note taking error. Gynae did not say discontinue, and I have letters to prove it. Now I may have to be without testosterone until this is proven, which may mean another 6 month wait to resee a gynaecologist via NHS. Hopefully my letters will suffice, but currently unclear.

I am beyond furious. Also, wow. Fuck living in this dystopia.

Keep every medical record you get, you're going to need it in this new terrifying timeline.

I doubt this is an error, tbh.

The AI bros hate trans people. The UK government hates trans people. I would put good money on this being deliberate programming on the part of someone trying to fuck people over.

@TinyGamerTris I'm peri not trans but they hate us too so maybe!

A lot of the Trans people that I know are on DIY HRT. But that's mostly because the NGS in my country is unfit for purpose.

Meanwhile, all cis women with peri/meno/post can now get free HRT, with specific advice to pharmacists that there is no age cohort, "making it inclusive for all women experiencing menopause-related symptoms":

Statement on the National Gender Service’s Attempt to Close Its Waiting List

This marks a further deterioration of gender-affirming care service provision for the trans community and underscores that the NGS is not fit for purpose.

UGH. That suuuuuuucks. I'm so lucky I live in Australia, the hoops are significantly less. Still have to deal with shittery but the anti-trans freaks in the Coalition never had enough influence to truly make things unbearable.

I wish I could rescue every trans person stuck in these awful situations and bring them here and find them good jobs and good GPs...
