Transition-related Sexual Health Care

Abstract

The sexual lives of trans and gender diverse people (TGD) have historically been over-medicalized and (psycho-)pathologized. Moreover, heteronormative principles often guided transition-related care. People and/or institutions often have the unfounded assumption that everyone is cisgender and heterosexual, and that this combination is superior. This chapter on sexuality aims at informing the (medical) professional of the sexual life of TGD people, in all its diversity and complexity.
