Prescribing Support
Prescribing Support Pathway – £90 Registration Fee (includes VAT)
A structured, informed-consent-based pathway for trans, non-binary, and intersex adults in the UK seeking safe and personalised access to gender-affirming hormone treatment.
This pathway connects you with a multidisciplinary team (MDT) of psychologists, clinicians, and prescribing professionals, offering you access to hormone support tailored to your needs.
- Ongoing professional oversight
- Comprehensive assessment & monitoring
- Personalised, evidence-informed care
This pathway requires clinical oversight, blood tests, and regular review to help UK-registered clinicians ensure the safety of any prescribing decisions.
Learn more below.
Step 1: Intake Appointment with a Psychologist
Once registered, you'll be asked to complete a few forms and be provided with information around the use of off-label prescribing. It's important that you complete these as it provides the team with the information they need to support you.
You’ll meet with one of our experienced BPS registered psychologists to explore your goals, history, and support needs. This step helps ensure your care is safe, personalised, and in line with clinical and regulatory standards.
Two Appointment Options:
- If you need a formal diagnosis:
Book a Full Intake Appointment – £190.80 inc. VAT (60 minutes)
- If you already have a formal diagnosis from a qualified psychologist:
You may be eligible for a Transferral Intake – £91.20 inc. VAT (30 minutes)
To be eligible for the transferral intake, we’ll need you to upload a copy of your formal diagnosis so it can be reviewed by the clinical team. If it meets the required criteria for a diagnosis of gender incongruence, we’ll help you get booked in at a time that works for you.
Step 2: Biometric Data
You’ll need to provide up-to-date height, weight, blood pressure reading & blood test results before your Treatment Planning Appointment. These help keep your care safe, and help the team make the most informed decisions for you.
You can choose how to have your blood tests taken, including:
- Pride In Health private referral – includes lab testing & results analysis
- Through your GP (if they’re supportive)
- A private clinic of your choice – with a £13.20 result analysis fee (inc. VAT)
We’ll always guide you through what’s required and verify that the necessary information has been received before prescribing.
All prices are available below to support you with budgeting throughout your journey.
Step 3: Treatment Planning Appointment From £188.40 inc. VAT
Once your blood test results have been received and reviewed, you’ll book a Treatment Planning Appointment.
During this session, we’ll:
- Review your goals and medical background
- Provide information about the available options and monitoring requirements based on the best available evidence
- Communicate your blood results and provide information about any further tests that may be advisable
- Support you in understanding informed consent and answer your questions
Please note: Prescribing decisions are not made during this appointment. All treatment plans and prescribing lines will be reviewed and authorised by a UK-registered clinician following test results and final prescribing review.
Step 4: Prescribing Review – £67.20 (inc. VAT)
This cost includes the cost of your appointment and the price of your initial *prescription (normally £14.40 inc. VAT).
Once your test results are in and reviewed by the multidisciplinary team, you’ll have a short 10 minute appointment with a UK registered clinician.
This is your chance to:
- Review your results with a UK clinician
- Finalise your treatment plan
- Ask any last-minute questions before your prescription is arranged
Ongoing prescriptions will be charged at £14.40 inc. VAT every 3 months.
*Please note: the price of the prescription covers the administrative and system costs involved with generating and authorising your prescription. The cost of medication is paid separately to the pharmacy of your choice and is not covered by Pride In Health. It's always recommended that you reach out to your pharmacy before requesting your prescription, for an understanding of the costs they charge, which can vary depending on the pharmacy you choose.
Step 5: Prescription Issued and Sent
Once everything has been reviewed, your prescription will be checked and signed by a UK-registered prescribing clinician.
Prescriptions are then securely issued through SignatureRX, and you’ll receive a text message with a link to your digital prescription. This allows you to take it to your chosen pharmacy or share it with a pharmacy that accepts digital prescriptions.
If there are any questions or issues with dispensing, our team can help follow up with the pharmacy directly.
We’ll also keep you updated on when your next blood tests and monitoring appointments are due, to help keep your care on track.
