6Insurance
It is worth noting that many transgender people do not have access to health insurance. A reason to explain for this may be that people from this community tend to be unemployed, which would come from the discrimination of employers against transgender people. Without an insurance plan, these individuals may have to pay more money for gender-affirming procedures, such as surgery and hormones. The expenses of these medical procedures would be too costly for many people. As a result, they may have to get more affordable hormones online or from friends. However, online hormones may pose certain health risks of being contaminated with other dangerous substances, bacteria, or viruses. [9]
