Hi,
Is it normal to have 2 NHS numbers?

Also was talking therapy a pre-requisite for those who have undergone SRS? I'm currently being referred to Primary Care Plus, but keep getting delayed?
First post, apologies if I did something wrong.

Apparently if you change gender marker they have to allocate a new one.
Hello anastasialea, welcome to Susan's!
GCS/SRS requirements depend on which country you are in and whether insurance is involved. I am not personally familiar with the NHS in the UK.
Since this was your first post I'll add information to help with navigation and site guidelines.

Great to see you here, and best wishes on your path to SRS.

Yes, talk therapy is a required part of the process if you choose to work via the NHS. Most reputable surgeons will require you to supply a letter (or 2) from a senior level mental health professional.
