No, a Nordic country. I'm not sure about why the queue is so long, but it is partly because they have trouble recruiting doctors and probably funding. It's always money, right?

Geez. That's ridiculous you'd have to wait so long. From what I've heard in the UK it's an intentional thing. I learned about this via the PhilosophyTube exposé and other trans people who live in the UK. Is there much anti trans sentiment and legislation in your country right now?

Also, there's always going DIY. I don't have many good resources on it but you could make a post on here and find some and learn about other people's experiences with it.

[email protected] has a bunch of information on DIY for anyone interested.

The instance it's hosted on died long ago, but the information is still available.
