Transgender healthcare: Guidelines for gynecology providers

Join Chen Malkut, an LGBT activist and practicing psychologist as she explores the issues that transgender patients face and suggest ways in which clinicians can provide more compassionate care.

Transgender individuals have made great strides toward societal acceptance in recent years. However, they still face significant barriers. People who identify on the transgender spectrum experience a unique set of challenges, and healthcare providers must provide care that meets individual patient needs.
In this guide you will learn:
  • The difference between trans, non-binary, gender fluid
  • Common misconceptions around trans experience
  • Practical steps to make your OBGYN practice trans inclusive

“For trans men who still have female reproductive organs, gynecologic care is particularly challenging. Needing to receive gynecologic care for their bodies only reemphasizes the ‘female-ness’ of their bodies.”
