Arjun Roy, a 28-year-old software engineer,...
Arjun Roy, a 28-year-old software engineer, had been experiencing persistent, severe pain in his lower abdomen and a frequent, urgent need to urinate for over six months. As a transgender man, he had been on testosterone therapy for three years but had not undergone gender-affirming hysterectomy. His symptoms were disrupting his work and sleep. His gynecologist, who specializes in transgender healthcare, diagnosed him with a complex urinary tract infection likely related to pelvic floor dysfunction and chronic inflammation. She recommended a cystoscopy to visually examine his bladder and urethra for any abnormalities. Arjun was anxious about the procedure, fearing it would be invasive and invalidating of his gender identity. The doctor and her team were exceptionally respectful, using his correct name and pronouns, and explained everything in detail. The procedure itself, under mild sedation, was quick with minimal discomfort. The cystoscopy revealed no serious issues, leading to a revised treatment plan of pelvic floor physiotherapy and a short course of antibiotics. Within weeks, his symptoms significantly improved. Emotionally, Arjun moved from a place of fear and dysphoria to feeling heard, respected, and relieved that a serious condition was ruled out, strengthening his trust in the medical system.
