At my last one, the nurse asked if I was on HRT due to being almost 70. I laughed and said no, I am trans. She didn't bat an eye and said, "OK, step over here."

I once had a nurse (she was new) doing the screening questions before seeing my Primary. She asked when I last had a PAP. We kind of stared at one another for a minute, then it dawned on her... "Oh, right. No uterus." We both laughed at that.

I have another mammogram soon.

Do not skip this important step as it may be a lifesaver.




Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

I'll have my annual wellness checkup in March, I expect the mammogram order will be issued at that time.  At my last wellness checkup my GP was going through my chart and she mentioned it's too early for a mammogram.  I had never even considered that a mammogram was in my future before that.  It really caught me off guard.
