Long before the pandemic, trans healthcare in the UK was already in a state of crisis. There are over 13,500 people in England alone trapped on waiting lists for treatment, with many instead turning to private doctors and unregulated online providers for medication.

For trans masculine and nonbinary people awaiting gender affirmation surgery – specifically bottom or lower surgery to construct a penis – the wait has become even more torturous. In March 2021, the NHS had quietly stopped all bottom surgery due to a contractual issue with the UK’s sole provider of the operation, St Peters Andrology Centre.
