Here’s how I run an unofficial trans hormone clinic in Ukraine
Anastasiia Yeva Domani is the director of Cohort, an expert on the Working Group of Trans People on HIV and Health in Eastern Europe and Central Asia and a representative of the transgender community on the Ukrainian National Council on HIV/AIDS and Tuberculosis.
I have lived in my flat for the past 12 years. But last year, when the war started, I turned my apartment into something resembling a humanitarian office for trans people, so they can come up to see me on the 17th floor of my building and take what they want and what they need.
Primarily, people come to me for their hormone therapy – and also for some food as well as other medicines and anything else that they want and need.
Sometimes, my flat is like a clinic. Because I am giving out certain medications, including sex hormones, I always ask the trans people who come to me for a prescription and check how old they are.
