This is a miscellaneous collection of resources for czech trans people I found while I was researching my own transition, it'll be mostly useful to transfeminine people.
Books
- Transsexualita a jiné poruchy pohlavní identity
Some sexologists (e.g. Ivo Procházka) require you to read this book after the first visit. The book is in many ways outdated, inaccurate, and just overall not great. It includes some diagnosis methods based on stereotypes which they might even seriously use on you! So if you're going to a conservative "old school" sexologist because nobody better has free slots for a year better read up on the nonsense they're going to ask you about ;)
Or if you're just morbidly curious what the peak of Czech sexology thinks of us.- 2008 edition PDF libgen:md5=C91B9AFC8B786CFC91F627C913615CDA libgen.rs libgen.is annas-archive.org annas-archive.se
- same edition, earlier upload, worse quality PDF libgen:md5=70717493D519415C5AA9B4AC02F1E2D1
Website archives
Websites I archived both to prevent them getting lost to time and to improve privacy, some of them don't support https on their original host and/or include trackers like google analytics.
Some of the websites here use language which I do not find exactly comfortable :/ however for a czech transgender person there's so little detailed information out there I'm going to take all I can get even if the presentation isn't ideal.
- www.translide.cz - blog and forum, a lot of information, original host supports only http. seems to be stale since 2006 (archived 2022-07-14)
- www.transsexualita.cz - original host supports only http (archived 2022-07-14)
- nnpvx7.gitbooks.io/transky-sobe - seems abandoned, only a little bit of content (archived 2022-07-14)
Found surgery notes
The main reason I find these websites valuable is that they published people's diaries from undergoing some gender affirming surgery in czech republic, until I found this I've only heard very vague gossip and couldn't even find a list of surgeons or anything.
So here are links for convenience to the different surgery diaries found on the archived websites.
