Gender Transitioning

HAPPY LGBT HEALTH AWARENESS WEEK!

I kicked my final week of this rotation off with a workshop I facilitated with the women of trans experience and gender non-conforming clients at the Bronx Community Pride Center.  The topic was Gender Transitioning: A Medical Perspective, and it was such an energizing hour of dialogue with these amazing folks, who were so engaged in the discussion, asking really informed questions, and contributing their thoughts on controversial issues such as black market hormones.

So what are some general requirements/recommendations for individuals interested in transition-related health care?
