Jana's Transition and Leaving the Middle East Fund
Donation protected
My name is Jana and I'm an Arab trans woman living in the Middle East, each day poses another danger to my safety and I am currently trying to get out of my country as well as gathering funds for gender-dysphoria alleviating surgeries
I've already been DIYing hormones for almost 6 months now because it is illegal for doctors to help me here but I've recently hit a dead end because it's becoming increasingly harder to get the hormone replacement medication I need.
Being forced off HRT poses not only a mental health risk but a physical one too: being forced off is going to cause me to have an even more gender non-confirming body which is not only mentally crippling because of gender-dysphoria related to masculinity but also puts me at greater risk for violence
I'd like to gather enough money to
- Be able to leave to the US
- Be able to switch to needle injections for HRT in the meanwhile and for the future (injections are more effective and might be more available than pills where I currently am but unfortunately they are more expensive than the other forms of HRT)
- Have enough of a survival fund so that I can stand on my own two feet while I'm there (and a emergency fund in general)
- Add to funds for facial feminization surgery and laser hair removal (which will be the next step in my medical transition as soon as I leave the middle east)
Other ways to donate:
-
- My Kofi
All help is appreciated, whether through donations or shares. Thank you for reading all the way through <3
