Transgender Medicine and Hormone Therapy: What the Gynecologist Needs to Know. The transgender community comprises individuals with diverse identities in both gender and sexual orientation. Unfortunately, many face discrimination and harassment within our society-including within the medical system. There is an overall lack of provider training in transgender specific health which has led to health disparities and inequities within this population. This chapter aims to elucidate the medical needs unique to transgender and gender nonconforming individuals and thus enable medical providers to meet those needs with competency and compassion.
