Ethics approval and consent to participate
: The Regional Ethical Review Board in Lund, Sweden granted the formal approval for the study (Dnr 2017/29). The participants were all given oral and written information, first from the recruiting contacts at the clinic they had approached, and subsequently from the researcher. No contact or information was shared with the guardians because the participants had in some instances approached the clinics without their guardians’ knowledge, even though the participants were sometimes under 18. Permission to interview minors is usually granted from the age of 15 in Sweden, which was also the case in this study.
: All participants provided their consent to publish findings by signing the informed consent form.
: The authors declare that they have no competing interests.
