FYI, the Swedish Government has presented a law proposal asking for the obligation of sterilisation prior to a change of sex to be removed.

The text presented by the Government includes a proposal to change ‘pregnant woman’ to gender neutral ‘pregnant person’ in the relevant laws since a woman could henceforth be a ‘man’ once the law has been passed, in both cases capable of being pregnant.

The change of the law is suggested to be effective as of 1^st July 2013: http://rod.se/steriliseringskravet-lyfts-bort-fr%C3%A5n-lagen
