I was aware it was one year but I read on the UK government about changing gender and it says 2 years. I couldn't believe it when I saw it. Talk about making it harder for us. This is it:

Although this might just mean after your one year.
And I could save sperm but I'm not sure I could bring myself to use it. Raising a child as female then having to explain where daddy is. I'm not sure I could do that to a child. I know it's a contradiction but I want to be a father and yet I want to be a woman too. Strange right?
