Abstract
Purpose of the Review
To present a practical guide to the care and treatment of gender diverse patients with and without gender dysphoria.
Recent Findings
Gender diverse patients experience considerable discrimination in the healthcare system and often cannot obtain basic medical care or specialized hormonal management. There is scant evidence to guide the clinician in making the care decisions of gender diverse patients. Although some guidelines exist, these often lack the rationale and practical considerations that are necessary for the respectful care of this oppressed community.
Summary
Providing healthcare to gender diverse patients, with and without gender dysphoria, and their partners can be challenging. The current article provides practical guidance and a review of the literature to support that guidance.
