What Is Gender-Affirming Care?
Gender-affirming care refers to medical and mental health services that support individuals who are transgender or gender non-conforming in their gender identity. The goal of gender-affirming care is to help individuals align their physical body and presentation with their gender identity, allowing them to live comfortably and authentically in their gender.
Gender-affirming care may include hormone therapy to alter secondary sex characteristics and support physical gender transition. It may also involve surgeries such as top surgery (chest masculinization or feminization) or bottom surgery (genital reconstructive surgery). In addition to physical interventions, gender-affirming care may include mental health services such as therapy, counseling, and support groups to help individuals navigate the emotional and psychological aspects of gender transition.
