Passport Agency's letter and Doctor's letter
Well, I am bit shame that I did not do a spell check first post.
In order to clarify the issue I got from the doctor's letter and a letter form passport agency.
This is what I recived a letter from Passport agancy:
"Thank you for recent passport appolication. We need your help in order to continue processing your request. You will need to submit a certified letter from your attending surgeon or the hospital, stating that the gender reassignment surgery has been completed.
If surgery has not been completed and you wish to have your passport give the opposite gender than the one stated on your citizenship evidence, you will neet to submit a detailed summary from your attending medical physician or surgeon. The statement should outline your past medical history, including psychological and hormonal treatments, your current treatment state, and the expected date of your gender reassignment surgery. Upon review of the above statement, a limited passport may be issued".
Doctor's letter:
" To Whom It May Concern:
My name is J.B; I am a physician at XXX clinic and am trained in transgender health. Ms. J is my patient. I am submitting this request for the gender identification on her passport to be designated as "female." Ms J was born a genetic male (XY chromosomes) with sexual organ from both sexes (a vagina, scrotum, testicles, and penis.) Ms J underwent rudimentary surgery at age 9 and recived hormone injections from the age of 10-12, but has not had either since that time. Currently, she has severe hypofunction of her gonads and has a testosterone level comparable to a genetic female. Ms. J does not currently need hormone therapy to transition from male to female bacause her level is currently that of a female. She plans to have sex-reassignment -surgery in the future to cpmplete that transition process. Please contact me with any questions.
Sincerely,
J.B, MD, MPH
Staff Physician"
In my feeling and opinion, do I need to go sex-reassignment surgery? It will be quit expensive and time consuming. If it is allow, I do not want the surgery. Hornestly, I am bit scare to cut my body again.
So, I am going to see the doctor for revise his letter next Tuesday. I will ask him the comment from Kalilana's.
thanks,
Oh, Betsy, I have not post for a while, and I think I posted my thread quite not right. Please switch my thread to "General Health" or "meeting board"?
