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 😅

    Not the first time you’ve schooled me - I love seeing your posts!

    Thank you, and keep the insight coming. Nursing school doesn’t cover transgender care hardly at all, so a good chunk of my education so far on that topic has come from people like you!

      Can I recommend giving this a read? It’s a great resource for getting a decent understanding of some trans stuff. Covers a lot of what we feel and go through, and also the effects of hormones and such. There’s a chapter on intersex conditions also. Lots of good stuff!

        Added to my nursing bookmarks. I won’t have time to do a deep dive on anytihng other than coursework for the next few months, but that looks like a great resource! Thank you!
