  1. My hematocrit has been low my last few blood tests... because of gender!

    Last September I changed my chart gender to be nonbinary. Instead of expanding the gender range to include the male & female ranges, they assigned me the male range. Because of course.

    Now my hematocrit is low, despite actually being in the AFAB range. luv 2 gender
