Nice & easy! Yeah, if what happens is they give you a sheet with basic hrt info and side effects [1] and say that you accept any risks, then it's informed consent. Thankfully that's the norm here as well. When I went to my local planned parenthood [2] for my first visit, it went like this:

Roz: So I think I might be transge--
Doc: cool cool :ablobcatnodfast: you want pills, patches, or shots?

[1] and the sheet is almost always laughably incomplete compared to what you can find online or from your gal pals cause it's based on old studies

[2] planned parenthood is generally known for, erm, *other* incredibly important services, but many of them also do gender affirming hormone therapy. I guess they decided they wanted to do *all* the bodily autonomy :blobcat3c:
