I was at my doctors a few days ago for a routine appointment in drab.
I had my ears pierced 6 months ago and have been letting my hair grow a bit, but it's obviously a men's cut.
At the end of the consult I said to my doctor I had to run for another appointment. He asked what it was.
"Are you getting a tattoo?" I laughed that off.
"Are you going to the hairdresser?" Again laugh and said no.
"Are you getting your nails done?" I was thinkimg WTF and where has this come from.

I made up a story and left.
(Left for laser hair removal)

Dear Petunia:
My thought is that you missed a golden opportunity to come out to your Doctor.

You have already given clues to your possible plans for MTF transitioning with your
pierced ears and longer hair. 
It appears that your doctor's questions already somewhat confirms that premise.
      Hairdresser?  Nails?

Please keep your updates coming.

HUGS, Danielle

My question would be - what was the motive for the Dr asking so many questions?

As @Northern Star Girl pointed out, perhaps they were fishing for confirmation of what they were suspecting.

In reality, the Dr should have left it at one question and not pushed any further.

Do you know if your Dr and the practice are LGBTQIA+ friendly?

Here in Australia, we have Dr / Patient confidentiality and by law, Dr's are forbidden to disclose any information regarding their patients without their consent so anything that is discussed with your Dr or staff is held in strict confidence.

Perhaps searching for another GP that is more within alignment of your medical needs would alleviate some of the stress and concerns you might be having.

You shouldn't have to make up stories to appease your Dr.

Blessed Be.

Victoria
