Although transgender persons have been present in various societies
throughout human history, it is only during the last several years
that they have become widely acknowledged in our society and their
right to quality medical care has been established. In the United
States, endocrinologists have been providing hormonal therapy for
transgender individuals for decades; however, until recently, there
has been only limited literature on this subject, and non-endocrine
aspects of medical care for transgender individual have not been
well addressed in the endocrine literature. The goal of this volume
is not only to address the latest in hormonal therapy for
transgender individuals (including pediatric and geriatric age
groups), but also to familiarize the reader with other aspects of
transgender care, including primary and surgical care, fertility
preservation, and the management of HIV infection. In addition to
medical issues, psychological, social, ethical and legal issues
pertinent to transgender individuals add to the complexities of
successful treatment of these patients. A final chapter includes
extensive additional resources for both transgender patients and
providers. Thus, an endocrinologist providing care to a transgender
person will be able to use this single resource to address most of
the patient's needs. While Transgender Medicine is intended
primarily for endocrinologists, this book will be also useful to
primary care physicians, surgeons providing gender-confirming
procedures, mental health professionals participating in the care
of transgender persons, and medical residents and students.
