Jenni first realised that she wanted to transition around the beginning of the year. “I’ve got a problem with my pituitary gland – that’s where I believe it started. My hormones are all upside down,” she comments, “then during lockdown, it got really bad.”
When she first approached Tinkable clinic for some esteem-boosting tweakments, she was still in “male mode” as John, and her mental health was in a bad state. “I was coming home, locking the door, closing the curtains and not going out,” she describes. “Then, in March 2022, I went away for a weekend – when I came back, that was when it hit me, this was what it was going to be. It was a reality check.”
