Send us a textComing out as a transgender man in the late 1980s—before the internet, before mainstream conversations about gender identity, and before widespread access to information and affirming healthcare—Jamison Green found himself navigating a world where resources were scarce, and community was hard to find. Instead of being deterred, he became a guiding light and a leader in the fight for trans visibility and rights. Now, with his latest book, A History of Transgender Medicine, he takes us on a journey through the evolution of trans healthcare—chronicling the struggles, victories, and ongoing battles for equitable medical care. Today In the Den, we'll explore Jamison's incredible journey, the legacy of those who came before him, and the future he envisions for transgender rights and healthcare. Special Guest: Jamison GreenJamison Green, Ph.D. is an author, educator, public speaker, independent legal scholar, and expert policy consultant in transgender health and employment discrimination litigation. He is best known for his influential book Becoming a Visible Man, first published in 2004 and updated in 2020. This work is considered a classic in transgender literature, offering valuable insights into the experiences of trans men. Dr. Green began working for transgender visibility and rights in San Francisco in 1994 when a newly implemented non-discrimination ordinance (which he co-authored with city attorneys) placed the city in violation of its own Equal Benefits Ordinance. It took until 2000 to win on the issue, and a trans-inclusive policy went into effect in 2001.Links from the Episode: Find Dr. Green here: https://www.jamisongreen.com/aboutBuy Becoming a Visible Man here:https://www.amazon.com/dp/0826522874?k=becoming+a+visible+man&crid=3QR6HPLED6O1T&sprefix=becoming+a+vi&linkCode=sl1&tag=jga00-20&linkId=80f03b302ad4d357a8f4f7f5d2cef760&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl Find A History of Transgender Medicine here: https://www.amazon.com/History-Transgender-Medicine-United-States/dp/B0DBT6PZCX Join Mama Dragons today: www.mamadragons.orgIn the Den is made possible by generous donors like you.

Research suggests that LGBTQ adults have higher rates of substance use and mental health issues, compared to their heterosexual cisgender peers.  These health disparities are often related to minority stress—the chronic psychological and emotional strain that people experience due to being part of a marginalized social group. For example, some LGBTQ folks may use alcohol and drugs to cope with internalized homophobia or to self-medicate for anxiety and depression. On the other hand, some people use drugs in the context of social settings and connecting with others in their community. Since not all substance use is unhealthy, how do providers know how to identify when substance use is problematic?  And what can physicians do to best support their patients who may be at greater risk for harm or even overdose?    On this episode, Antonio Urbina, MD, Medical Director for CEI's HIV Primary Care and Prevention Center of Excellence, speaks with Eric Kutscher, MD, MSc. Dr. Eric Kutscher is an Assistant Professor of Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine, where he practices as a primary care and addiction medicine physician at Mount Sinai's Internal Medicine Associates and REACH Program. He currently serves as the Medical Director of the Mount Sinai Hospital Opioid Overdose Prevention Program and Primary Care Lead for the Mount Sinai Center for Transgender Medicine and Surgery. His clinical work and research focus on harm reduction techniques for patients with substance use disorders, particularly within the LGBTQ+ community. Drs. Urbina and Kutscher talk about how providers can identify when substance use is a problem and how to help patients manage substance use disorder, including treatment options and harm reduction strategies.  Related Content:  2021-2022 Lesbian, Gay, And Bisexual Behavioral Health A Provider's Introduction to Substance Abuse Treatment for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, & Transgender (LGBT) Individuals CEI toll free line for NYS providers: 866-637-2342 https://ceitraining.org/

EP083: Dr. Quentin Van MeterIt's a tough time to be a kid. Doctors and counselors are pressuring children to irreversibly change their bodies in the name of “identity,” while parents are coerced to play along with a fantasy or risk losing their child.What ever happened to the adolescent experience?Dr. Quentin Van Meter has seen it all as a pediatrician and joins Erika to break down why “gender medicine” doesn't follow science or medicine.Follow us on social media!

Dr. Joshua Safer  is the executive director of the Mount Sinai Center for Transgender Medicine and Surgery in New York. He is the founding medical director of the Center for Transgender Medicine and Surgery at Boston University School of Medicine, and he was the inaugural president of the United States Professional Association for Transgender Health (USPATH).  He serves on the Global Education Initiative for the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH). Dr. Safer was a co-author of the Endocrine Society Guidelines for the medical care of transgender patients. This episode is part of a series on trans rights. The inspiration for these interviews is three bills currently moving through the Alaska State House: HB 183 which bans trans girls from playing girls sports; HB 105 which requires kids to get signed permission slips approving their preferred name and pronouns; and HB 338 which allows doctors to be sued up to 20 years after performing gender affirming procedures on trans youth.Alaska has many big problems. The pressing need to increase the funding of our public school system and finding a solution for an imminent energy crisis, for example. But instead of working on these very real, very substantial problems, we are spending the last weeks of session debating whether trans youth exist and have rights. They do exist; they do have rights.

Compared with the general population, transgender and gender diverse people are more likely to experience poor health outcomes, such as chronic health conditions, HIV, substance use, and mental illness. We know these disparities are due structural factors, such as political and economic policies, and interpersonal factors, such as discrimination, stigma, and violence. Transgender people are also more likely to encounter barriers to accessing health insurance and health care. When transgender people do access health care, nearly half report being mistreated by medical providers. In this episode, Dr. Antonio E. Urbina, Medical Director of CEI's HIV Primary Care and Prevention Center of Excellence, speaks with Dr. Joshua D. Safer, Executive Director of Mount Sinai's Center for Transgender Medicine (CTMS) and Professor at the Icahn School of Medicine. While gender wellness clinics like CTMS are so important, there is a need to expand the health care workforce of providers treating transgender patients. For example, transgender patients report barriers to accessing inclusive primary care providers and specialists who can treat them outside of their gender-affirming interventions.  Drs. Urbina and Safer unpack common misconceptions and discuss how providers can improve access to inclusive care for transgender and gender diverse patients.  Related Content: Center for Transgender Medicine and Surgery at Mount Sinai: https://www.mountsinai.org/locations/center-transgender-medicine-surgery WPATH: https://www.wpath.org/ CEI toll free line for NYS providers: 866-637-2342 https://ceitraining.org/

Chloe Cole joins Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse to talk about how the entire medical establishment failed her by trying to turn her into a boy. Join us on censorship free Locals: https://TheRuthInstitute.Locals.com Chloe Cole is a detransitioner and describes herself as a "former trans kid" She was diagnosed with gender dysphoria at 9 years old and was treated by Kaiser Permanente in the San Francisco Bay Area between the ages of 13 and 17. She was a tomboy who thought of herself as a social misfit. She started thinking about transitioning after creating an Instagram account and being recommended lots of LGBTQ content: "Social media introduced this idea that I could be a boy." In eighth grade, Chloe was sexually assaulted and she began binding her breasts with chest binders. She was prescribed puberty blockers at age 13, and a month later, she was injected with large doses of opposite sex hormones (which permanently lowered her voice).  Chloe had a double mastectomy at age 15, in June 2020. At age 16, she realized that she would never be able to breastfeed. “I decided to stop transitioning entirely,” Chloe explains. “It was too much for me, and I knew that I couldn't keep lying to myself.” In early 2023, Chloe filed a lawsuit against Kaiser Permanente along with the individual endocrinologist, psychiatrist, and plastic surgeon involved in her mutilation. She is represented by Harmeet Dhillon of the Center for American Liberty. Her chemical "treatment" and amputation included "off label" drugs and "amounted to medical experimentation," and she was not given adequate information to provide informed consent.  As a result of harmful "treatment," she developed joint pain, weak bone density, and ongoing urinary tract infections.  She also charges that doctors did not inform her parents of alternative, less invasive treatments like psychiatric care, and that they told her that her gender dysphoria would "never resolve unless she chemically and surgically transitioned." Chloe recently testified before the U.S. House Judiciary Subcommittee about her opposition to transgender "treatment" for minors: www.YouTube.com/watch?v=DSGgR3W_jjg Detransition: The Wounds That Won't Heal: www.YouTube.com/watch?v=6O3MzPeomqs Chloe interview, regret & warning : www.YouTube.com/watch?v=3IcZecRlDdo Chloe on why she detransitioned: www.YouTube.com/watch?v=3am6G-D-VtQ Chloe on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chooocole/ Chloe on Twitter ("X"): https://twitter.com/ChoooCole This episode of The Dr J Show may also be seen on the following platforms: TheRuthInstitute.Locals.com https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLSi2OoPf_APunkaLSv4jrKMB65x78U5MH https://www.bitchute.com/channel/MXkWgTk4Brwr/ https://rumble.com/c/TheRuthInstitute https://odysee.com/@TheRuthInstitute:7?view=content&order=new Sign up for our weekly newsletter here: https://ruthinstitute.org/newsletter +

So that inspired me to reach out to the detransitioner community and start learning everything I could,” said Winn.Winn is the host of the “You Must Be Some Kind of Therapist” podcast and associate producer of the new documentary “No Way Back: The Reality of Gender Affirming Care,” which premieres in select AMC Theaters for one day only on Wednesday, June 21st.

Gender identity is a biological phenomenon! Here to discuss transgender care today is the executive director of the Center for Transgender Medicine and Surgery at Mount Sinai Health System, Dr. Joshua Safer. Tuning in you'll hear about Dr. Safer's illustrious career in health care, how he ended up in transgender care, and how the CTMS program started. We also discuss why gender identity falls under the diagnostic category of sexual health and why it is still classified under the mental health code. Next, we talk about how the CTMS program has evolved, what Dr. Safer has learned from his patients, how treatment is customized, and where Dr. Safer sees this field going in the future. Finally, we look at how fertility affects transgender care before we all share what we are grateful for today. To hear all of this and be inspired to get educated on gender identity, join us now! 

In this episode feminist writer and researcher Genevieve Gluck returns to the podcast to expose the origins and drivers behind the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), the world authority on medical protocols for treating youth with so-called "gender dysphoria." Many parents of trans-identified youth consider WPATH the place to get answers as WPATH sets the guidelines for gender clinics across the world. Genevieve unpacks the trans-eunuch connection, how pornography lays the groundwork for pedophilia and the striking parallels between the Russian Skoptsy cult and modern-day techno-infused transgenderism. Genevieve encourages listeners to shift energy to developing an understanding of history and how it repeats itself, instead of acting from a place of defense. Genevieve is the Co-Founder of Reduxx, and the outlet's Chief Investigative Journalist with a focused interest in pornography, sexual predators, and fetish subcultures. A global nomad, she is currently living in Japan, and is the creator of the podcast Women's Voices.

Part 2 of our interview with Dr. Drew Cronyn, pediatrician and clinical director at Transhealth in Northampton, Massachusetts where we continue our discussion on providing general and specialized affirming care for transgender, gender-creative, nonbinary, and gender-questioning youth.

Dr. John Pang changed his life overnight by deciding to pursue medical school instead of veterinary school. He now combines his passion for art and practices gender-affirming care as a plastic surgeon. Dr. Pang works with his patients to ensure they experience an improvement in their quality of life with the knowledge of the intricacies wrapped in the gendering of facial features and body contouring. Though mainstream biases and archaic insurance systems have stunted research in transgender medicine and care, Dr. Pang pushes back against such attitudes and embraces a sense of community and belonging in his work with medical students and more. Dr. John Pang is a plastic surgeon and the Research Group Lead for the Center for Transgender Medicine and Surgery at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.

This week's episode is one I don't think you will ever forget. I am talking with the incredibly inspirational Jodie Patterson.  Jodie Patterson is an author, activist, beauty explorer, and mother of five. She holds the position of Chair of the Human Rights Campaign Foundation Board, our nation's largest LGBT organization. she sits on the Board of Directors for The Shabazz Center - which upholds the legacy and teachings of Malcolm X, as well as the Mount Sinai's Institute for Health Equity Research Task Force, the Advisory Board of the Ackerman Institute's Gender & Family Project, and Mount Sinai's Center for Transgender Medicine and Surgery Advisory Board. The United Nations recognized Patterson as a Champion of Change.Today we talk about her children, the role of being a mother (can this include having sex on the kitchen counter?) Most profound is her story of when her three-year-old son announced “Mama I'm not a girl. I'm a boy.” From that moment on, Jodie set out to inform herself, shift her own bias and change the way her community understood gender. Patterson chronicled that journey in her memoir, The Bold World: A Memoir of Family and Transformation - hailed by Alice Walker as “Marvelous”.Simply put Jodie is a true badass, teacher, and a voice we should all be listening to if we really want to experience freedom. Website: www.georgiany.comBooks: The Bold World: A Memoir of Family and Transformation, Born Ready: The True Story of a Boy Named PenelopeHuman Rights FoundationThe Shabazz CenterMount Sinai Institute for Health EquityMount Sinai Transgender SurgeryAckerman Research ProjectLearn more about Molly Carroll here: https://molly-carroll.com/Get your free Body Emotion Map: https://mollycarrollprograms.com/mapFree Monthly Training: https://mollycarrollprograms.com/freetrainingFind me on SocialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mollycarrollinc/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Molly-Carroll-Writes-420796934793507/

Welcome to M.ED: Medical Education for the practicing clinician. This is the first in a two-part episode series on transgender health. I was fortunate to have a really interesting conversation with Dr. Adam Dell, a pediatrician who works in adolescent medicine at the University of Utah Adolescent Medicine Clinic with GeMS (Gender Management and Support). This is a comprehensive clinic for transgender, non-binary, intersex, and gender diverse youth, as well as for youth questioning their gender. The clinic provides care for their patient's physical, mental, and emotional health. Dr. Dell gives a great overview of the state of current transgender medicine, including various treatment options as well as information that every clinician should know when caring for transgender patients. Dr. Dell completed his medical school training at the University of South Dakota Sanford School of Medicine and his pediatric residency training at the University of Utah. Also taking part in this conversation is Dr. Lucy. She has a child who identifies as transgender and she discusses her personal experience of being a parent of a transgender child while also being a pediatrician. We are not using her last name today because her child is a minor and is thus unable to give consent to the use of her name in a public sphere. Please enjoy these episodes that provide timely and important information regarding transgender health that are applicable to clinicians across specialties. As always, you will find links to articles related to Transgender Medicine on the RUUTE website. Free CME credit is available on the website as well. Please enjoy!

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer or LGBTQIA+ people struggle with mental health issues at higher rates than their heterosexual peers. They face multiple stressors such as homophobia and discrimination, issues around coming out, communicating with family, and finding a peer group. Finding a therapist that is openly, LGBTQ friendly, or specializes in LGBTQ+ issues can help validate a clients experience and make them feel heard. Dr. Hansel Arroyo is a psychiatrist working in New York. After completing a residency in psychiatry at Mount Sinai Hospital, Dr. Arroyo pursued a psychoanalytic training at the New York Psychoanalytic Institute and a fellowship in psychosomatic medicine specializing in treatment of chronic medical conditions, particularly patients living with HIV. Dr. Arroyo’s career has focused in providing mental health to individuals in the LGBTQ+ community. In 2015 he became Director of Psychiatry for the Institute for Advanced Medicine, an LGBTQ+ clinic,  and was a founding member and Director of the Center for Transgender Medicine and Surgery, where he developed the nation’s first Transgender Psychiatry Fellowship.

Air Date 4/17/2021 Today we take a look at the surge of anti-trans legislation coming from Republican-controlled state legislatures. Being concerned that suppressing voter turnout by targeting Black and Brown voters may not be enough to keep them in power, they are resorting to targeting another vulnerable population in the next of their infinite series of attempts to create a wedge issue by pitting people's lives and wellbeing against the prejudices of their constituents.  We also examine the harm being inflicted on trans people, the trans-exclusionary Radical Feminists who have partnered with conservative coalitions to limit trans rights and briefly explore the world of sex-segregated athletics.  Be part of the show!

With so much turmoil and uncertainty happening around us, finding wholeness – with oneself and one’s community – is especially important. This week’s guest, Cantor Laura Stein, shares her perspectives on how we can best care for those around us, the (lack of) tension between being Jewish and being a lesbian, and how her spiritual leadership inspires her social work at Mount Sinai Hospital's Center for Transgender Medicine and Surgery. “I see…my work with the patients as trying to bring wholeness to their lives,” she says. “And for my patients in particular [to] look in the mirror and see who [they] are in a way that reflects who [they] truly are…spiritual pursuit is about [making] the world more whole. I really see that as beginning with these individuals.”

The US Women's Soccer Team thrilled the world with their prowess on the field and leadership off of it. Their championship demonstrates the important impact of Title IX in funding and support for women athletics in schools and universities. Beyond soccer, women routinely eclipse male runners during marathons and other sports, pointing to a continuum of physical performance. The ambiguity of gender—as reflected in world class-athletes such as Caster Semenya—led the International Olympic Committee to adopt tests of testosterone levels and college athletic conferences to respond to intersex and trans-athletes. The physical ability and performances of women athletes are blurring historic and gendered divisions between men's and women's sports. Professor Mary Jo Kane will discuss the evolving state of women's sport with Dr. Jamie Feldman, an expert in transgender medicine. Mary Jo Kane is the director emerita of the Tucker Center for Research on Girls and Women in Sport and a Professor in the School of Kinesiology at the University of Minnesota. She is widely published on media coverage and women's sport and is a recognized expert on the impact of Title IX. Jamie Feldman, MD, PhD, is faculty in the University of Minnesota's Program in Human Sexuality. She has chaired a Transgender Medicine and Research Committee and published on transgender hormone therapy and primary care.

What is queer health policy and why is it important? Today, we chat with Dr. Carl G. Streed Jr, physician and research lead at Boston Medical Center for Transgender Medicine & Surgery. For over a decade, Carl has been dedicated to understanding and eliminating disparities among sexual and gender minorities through education reform, professional development, and systems redesign.

Session 100 Dr. Kara Connelly, a transgender medicine specialist. A pediatric endocrinologist by training in an academic setting, she has been out of training now for six years. Today, we talk about Transgender Medicine, why we have it, and why it's important for transgender patients. [04:13] Interest in Transgender Medicine Kara drew inspiration from patients and their families going through hoops they had to go through to access care. Knowing how challenging and difficult it was, she felt passionate about trying to make healthcare easier and more accessible. Additionally, this was in the realm of pediatric endocrinology that it naturally felt like they could build what they did to help more patients access the care they needed. [05:00] Traits That Lead to Being a Great Transgender Medicine Specialist Communication is the most important piece of being a great transgender medicine specialist. This goes for pediatric endocrinology as well. This being said, you also have to be a good listener and open to hearing people's stories and their needs. You also need to have an open mind in helping them access what they need. With pediatric endocrinology, you have to be able to tailor conversations based on who's listening. Be able to get the same points across to patients across different age ranges. [06:26] Types of Patients Kara mentions that one of the things that has been continuing to shift is where patients are accessing care. In this regard, pediatric patients are different from adult patients. Currently, they see patients as specialty care providers. They're often referred to by their primary care providers who are likely to have not had any training in the area since this wasn't included in their medical training. Not long ago, Kara didn't have any access to transgender medicine when she was a medical student. So it's still relatively new for many pediatricians. A lot of family medicine providers are gaining more experience because of their work with adult transgender patients. But many pediatricians are still wanting to refer to specialty care. As part of pediatric endocrinology, one of the treatments they offer is pubertal suppression or sometimes referred to as puberty blockers. These are medications that pause puberty and used for patients who are not transgender and go through puberty too early. This can also be accessed by transgender youth who don't want to go through the physical puberty changes that are not aligned with their gender identity. They also prescribe prosperity hormones to many patients who are not transgender. The patients come to see them pretty often after 3-4 months. They're prescribing hormones in starting puberty so they build relationships with these patients. For young adult and adult transgender patients, they usually access hormones through their primary care providers. So there are not a lot of adult patients that access these medications from adult endocrinologists. However, there also adult endocrinologists that are active in transgender health. [09:44] Focus on Transgender Health There aren't enough trained providers to be able to provide the care that is needed for this patient population. Kara explains that transgender health will be part of medical training and by that time, there will be more primary care providers with the knowledge and expertise to do the care. Pediatric care is a little bit more complicated than adults. But in adults, it usually involves prescribing hormones and monitoring for side effects which are low and rare. It's easy to get the training that's needed to become an expert in transgender health. So it's just a matter of training people. Taking care of this population is critical because transgender people in the U.S. and in the world, are not able to access a lot of the rights and healthcare that other populations are able to. It's important that as a society, we're able to gain awareness of what this means and how important it is to be able to provide basic healthcare needs to all patients. We have to recognize the significant disparities that transgender patients face by not being able to have their basic healthcare needs met. There are studies demonstrating high rates of transgender patients not accessing basic healthcare. This includes primary care and preventative care – because of the fear that they will be rejected by their healthcare provider or their healthcare clinic setting. [13:43] Typical Day Kara doesn't think she has a typical day. Working in an academic setting, she does clinical care, medical education, and a bit of research.  Clinical care is in the outpatient setting done at the clinic in their hospital. She also travels to three different cities for outreach clinics. She provides pediatric endocrinology care to patients outside of the major city she lives in who don't have access to a specialist. She provides telehealth care where she sees patients from her office while the patients are sitting in a clinic in another city. She also sees patients whenever she's on call providing inpatient service. They mostly see patients children with Type 1 diabetes as well as consults with other services in the hospital. That said, each day is a little bit different in terms of where she's seeing patients or whether she has an admin or nonclinical day. Nonclinical time is spent on scheduled roles with undergraduate medical education. She works with medical students in their preclinical years. She also works the rotation for pediatric endocrinology for students and residents rotating with them. She does didactic teaching, focused primarily on transgender health throughout their hospital and throughout their state. Her research is also primarily focused on transgender health, mentoring students and residents. She also helps oversee projects pediatric endocrinology fellows are doing in their field. [16:15] Academic vs Community Kara chose the academic setting primarily because of her passion for teaching and education. She loves seeing patients. Her primary interest is clinical work but it's not all that she wants to do. Kara wanted to be able to incorporate the education piece and research into her career. And the academic setting is the best place to do this. [16:55] Taking Calls Kara takes calls as a pediatric endocrinologist. She hasn't experienced getting any calls for transgender medicine. As a pediatric endocrinologist, their group takes calls evenly, where they do a week of call at a time. They're the main person somebody will call if they have questions about any of their patients. On the weekends, they see patients in the hospital for a couple of hours. Then she gets to come home and live her life through the rest of the day and the weekend. She doesn't get very many calls so she doesn't really feel it's interrupting her home life.  During the week, it can get pretty busy as they could get inpatient consulting and they still do clinics. So while the weekday calls can be busy, the nights are not too bad. Kara thinks this is partly because they're in an academic setting. They have pediatric endocrinology fellows who take the calls from the patients during the day and night. The attending doesn't get a lot of those calls. Basically, she gets 9 or 10 weeks of calls per year. [19:10] Transgender Medicine as a Full-Time Career Kara does transgender medicine as a pediatric endrocrinologist and sees pediatric patients. A lot of the transgender specialists in the country are trained as adolescent medicine providers. If you want to do this as a full-time career, you can do more of general adolescent pediatric care but also have a special interest in transgender care. Basically, it's up to the individual to decide what percentage of their practice they want to focus on. Moreover, there are different ways to provide care for transgender patients. As they continue to build more capacity for training providers and acceptance and understanding of the needs of this patient population, it will no longer feel as a specialized field. It will feel like being able to prescribe medications for high cholesterol patients. [21:06] Work-Life Balance Kara thinks that one of the best things about pediatric endocrinology is the lifestyle. They have low acuity and high complexity patients. But generally, their patients do well and it's their role to help them stay healthy. She feels their field is very conducive to being able to have a family. She has two young children but still gets to spend time with them even if she works full-time. She may miss out on school activities during the day if she had not been able to plan ahead for them. But she has a lot of vacation time she can use if she knows about activities in advance. Also, when she's on call at night, she never had to go back into the hospital. Even if the patients are sick in the hospital, they have residents seeing them as well as the ICU team. [22:40] Training Path to Becoming a Transgender Medicine Specialist Basically, the training path depends on what specialty somebody wants to go into. If you're interested in transgender medicine, the first question to ask is what patient population, specifically, age, are you interested in working with. What other skills do you hope to attain and have and work on? Kara went into pediatric endocrinology even before she knew about transgender medicine. But she always knew she wanted to work with pediatric patients. She did 3 years of pediatric residency and another 3 years of pediatric endocrinology fellowship. In pediatric endocrinology fellowship, you will likely get training in providing care to transgender youth. In fact, this is one of the things that the Pediatric Endocrine Society is actively working on. They're building a curriculum for pediatric endocrinology fellows where they would have standardized training for transgender care. In the primary care setting, you may do a family medicine residency and then become a family medicine doctor who can see youth and adults and provide transgender care. This may also look the same for somebody who wants to be a general pediatrician and be able to provide transgender care. So they go through three years of pediatric residency and then practice. Surgical care is more specialized and requires additional training. This has not been incorporated into the residency training yet. But there are special training fellowships for gender-affirming surgical care. This can be done after finishing the surgical residency training. At this point, there is no board certification for transgender medicine. There are groups or organizations dedicated to transgender healthcare such as the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH). It's an organization of professionals dedicated to providing transgender care. To match into pediatric endocrinology from general pediatrics is not very competitive. There are more training physicians than there are applicants. Kara believes that this is a great field to enter if you want your pick as far as training program and where you want to live." The pediatrics side can be competitive depending on which programs you want to apply for. [27:00] Subspecialty Opportunities From a primary care standpoint, you can specialize in transgender care. In pediatric endocrinology, when they're providing care for transgender patients, they do prescription of pubertal suppression medications for different conditions regularly. But it's not really specialized training. [28:34] Bias Against DOs and Working with Primary Care and Other Specialties Kara is not seeing any problems with DOs having access to training. When working with primary care providers, Kara wants them to understand how to create an affirming care environment. People who identify themselves as transgenders want to go into the clinical setting not knowing if they're going to be respected. They have to understand the basic things like using the right names and pronouns and how to ask the questions. They need to make sure all the people the patient is going to encounter are being consistent in being affirming and using the right names and pronouns. Secondly, primary care should be sensitive about physical exams. People who identify as transgender or gender-diverse are often really anxious or uncomfortable about the chest exam or the genital exam. So help them understand the purpose of the exam and why it's necessary. Then make sure they give permission and consensus first before the exam is done. Lastly, when a patient comes in for any reason, focus on the reason why they're there. If they want to start hormones, that's specific to transgender care. This is important for emergency room providers to recognize and just ask the questions pertinent to the reason why they're presenting. Other specialties pediatric endocrinologists work with include general pediatrics, adolescent medicine, psychology, and psychiatry. In transgender health, they have an integrated team of many clinical providers that provide care for all ages. They work closely with primary care providers in family medicine, internal medicine, OB/GYN, urology, and plastic surgery. [32:50] How to Start a Dialogue with Transgender Patients Several clinics use written forms, which is an easy venue for the youth to write things down.  It's important to leave the forms as open as possible so they don't feel like they have to check boxes. For example, it's important not to have a male or female box for gender identity. And specify gender identities separate from sex assigned at birth. Verbally, pediatricians can just ask the youth about their gender identity and whether they feel comfortable with it. And it would feel more natural if this is something you ask all patients. Just opening the space to have that dialogue and making that just a routine part of every well adolescent visit will start to feel more natural. Sometimes, pediatricians could ask very young children (as young as 3 or 4) whether they're a boy or a girl. This is a simple way to open the conversation to very young children. Sometimes, this could be the first place where young children are able to say who they are.  [36:35] Special Opportunities Outside of Clinical Medicine There are tons of opportunities for advocacy and getting closely involved with community partners. You can work on having resources outside of the clinic setting for gender-diverse youth. For example, you can get involved with support groups for parents and youth. [37:34] What She Knows Now that She Wished She Knew Kara finds transgender medicine to be a very rewarding career as you get to build relationships with parents and patients. This is something that she loves about her specialty. And it's really unique for this specific population. Another thing she had no idea about getting into this specialty is how hard and complex the care is. They face so many barriers in terms of getting insurance coverage for some of the basic needs of these patients.  In fact, 30-40% of the care she provides to patients is battling insurance companies just to get approval for basic things. But it's gotten better though. Their state Medicaid plan will cover all transgender-related medications and surgeries. But a lot of commercial insurance plans won't. And if ever they do cover treatments, it can be very costly. Hence, they have a specialized team of people who can work on this aspect. They have a full-time medication authorization specialist who focuses on getting authorizations for the medications prescribed for patients. [40:30] Most and Least Liked Things What she loves most about transgender medicine is being able to develop meaningful relationships with patients. It's great to have a place where they can come and know that every conversation is safe. They can ask any questions. Kara also loves working with families and help them overcome resistance and fears they experience around supporting their child's identity. From the pediatric endocrinology standpoint, Kara loves working with patients of all ages. She loves working with kids that have chronic health conditions and getting to know them over the years. On the flip side, dealing with insurance companies is one of her least liked things. Another thing is the Electronic Health Record. She appreciates it in terms of the way it has improved communication among providers and between patients and providers. But it can be pretty cumbersome and can take up a lot of time. That being said, you have to be really strategic around the ways you use it. In their case, they're building teams consisting of more medical assistants and nurses that can help triage those questions and issues. Nevertheless, if she had to do this all over again, Kara would do it without doubt. [47:00] Final Words of Wisdom Find a mentor or somebody in the field that you respect who's doing something you think you might be interested in. It's so valuable to have a mentor in the field that can help you really understand what that field is like. This could be in the form of shadowing or doing a scholarly project with them. Understand what their life is like and if it's something you want to pursue. Your mentor could also help you make connections with other people, whether it's the same field or a different field. There's so much value in face-to-face contact with people. It's so hard to get swallowed up in the paper of applications without the ability to show who you are as a person and the skills you bring.
