I have a medical condition. How can I tell if it's safe for me to take gender-affirming medications?

GenderGP uses a questionnaire to identify medical conditions that might affect the safety of taking certain medications. For example:

- People with heart disease won’t be recommended spironolactone.
- People with liver disease won’t be recommended cyproterone.
- People with breast cancer won’t be recommended estrogen.

If your condition isn’t mentioned in our intake form, it likely means there are no serious issues with the medications we recommend. However, for personalised advice, please consult a doctor. You can book a Doctor Consultation via our Directory at your convenience.

Alternatively, you can visit our Knowledge Base category for Medical Effects, Interactions, and Pre-existing Conditions and look for further information about the specific medical condition that concerns you.
