Title: VA is now offering fertility preservation for pre-op trans veterans
Post by: Harley Quinn on September 04, 2018, 11:42:30 AM
So I stumbled across this one... figure this might be handy info for those going through GRS. I posted a copy in GRS section too, but figured 90% of the forum checks this more often.

The VA will now provide fertility preservation to Veterans undergoing treatment that can cause infertility.
"Transgender and intersex Veterans are eligible for the same fertility preservation services as other Veterans about to undergo treatment that can alter fertility."

Sourced from paragraph 17 of VHA Directive 1341 'PROVIDING HEALTH CARE FOR TRANSGENDER AND INTERSEX VETERANS' published May 23, 2018.
