Not All Trans People Have Access To Freezing Embryos. I Am One Of The Lucky Ones.


Kinnon MacKinnon My fertility preservation journey took almost two years just to get started. I had also just learned that the Ontario Ministry of Health was funding fertility preservation for trans people through the Ontario Fertility Program (OFP). I made a visit to my family doctor, who specializes in trans care. By the time my name made it to the top of the list for funded fertility preservation, I was nearly 33. In regions lacking coverage — virtually everywhere outside Ontario — out-of-pocket expenses for egg retrieval and its associated medications often exceed $10,000.
