Review the issuing of hormone prescriptions for transgender individuals by GPs

Petition Details

I believe the government should launch a review into the ways that GPs work alongside NHS gender clinics to issue prescriptions for hormones.

Additional Information

It has been reported that some transgender individuals have been refused prescriptions for hormone medication, or had them withdrawn, despite having a gender dysphoria diagnosis. Hormones are extremely important to many transgender people and can help them cope with symptoms of gender dysphoria. Not having access to hormones may also affect access to further treatment.
