Gender Affirming Care
Accessing medical care can often present frustrating and undermining obstacles for the LGBTQ+ community. Transgender and non-binary individuals face gender and sexuality bias by healthcare providers, researchers, and electronic health records, a study found. Gender-affirming care, combined with mental health support, can help reduce risks by providing individuals with the tools, resources, and interventions needed to alleviate distress and promote a positive self-image.
