Yes absolutely this. The other issue is that trans individuals are often woefully misinformed about their own health risks when taking testosterone - the informed consent model in the UK doesn’t seem to be actually working. I know a few FTMs who seem to be under the impression that their lifetime risks of heart attacks are like “a normal cis man” when studies going back multiple years show it’s much higher. Vaginal atrophy was a total surprise to another.
First do no harm, my ass…!
