Hi, I am interested in a healthcare profession and will like to enroll for the professional conversion programme for physiotherapists. Due to the special requirements of healthcare professions, all applicants have to pass a medical examination and be free from physical disability in order to be admitted into the programme. Is it possible not to declare that I am transgender? Will the medical examination reveal anything about me being trans? Thanks for the help!!!

A collection of private thoughts from transmen all over the world.
Being transgender is no physical disability. Hormones therapy do not (and should not, if carefully monitored) affect your well-being. Surgeries will probably affect your physical condition temporarily, but your body will adjust in a matter of weeks.
