I'm at the place that does laser hair removal to discuss what is to be done. In some sense this is the start of my medical transition and it kinda feels like when I got my first covid shot: The situation is now finally changing for real.

And I have my first appointment on Wednesday 😊︎. The bad news is that my hair might be so strong that it may require ten or more sessions each. If I HAD a gender-dysphoria diagnosis my health insurance would cover that, but because the Dutch system is as transphobic as it is, I will have to pay for it myself. Not happy, and it is more money than I expected but I’m thankfully in a position where I can afford this and the outcome will certainly make me a lot happier than seeing a larger number in my banking-app would.
And then we discussed full body hair-removal… It’s really a lot of money for that, but I think I might just about be able to afford it without having to touch my live-savings if I don’t go on vacation or have other large expenses until I’m done… Then again I was told that this will become less of an issue once I get on HRT anyways, so I may not need it as much after all.
In short: I’m very torn about that one.
