The NHS needs to address screening.

Medical sex markers are self id and thats dangerous.

If I list as female I get invited to breast & cervix screening. Breast is applicable and necessary to those on hormones. If I list as male i get prostate screening only.

There is no biological male transsexual option that would list me for breast and prostate. I have to choose which one.

I have a greater risk of breast cancer than I do prostate cancer due to lack of testosterone so my GP listed me as female.

It was also deemed necessary to flag up the requirement for a chaperone for certain interventions.

I really dont want to.

Many ask what rights do transsexuals not have. This is one - the right to clinically appropriate preventative health screening.

This needs fixed.
