Study Explores Fertility Preservation Decisions Among Transgender Individuals – RBMO
Reproductive BioMedicine Online (RBMO) shared a post on LinkedIn:
“This interview study by a team in Denmark investigates the opinions and motivations around fertility preservation of individuals assigned male at birth (AMAB), undergoing or initiating feminizing gender affirming hormone therapy.
A number of themes emerged from the data, including discomfort with the thoughts of delivering male genetic material; infertility being the price to pay; and difficulty imagining the future owing to mental unclarity and gender discomfort in general. The participants generally expressed a parental desire, but not exclusively for biological children.
Published open access, the paper can be read in full for free from our January issue, now.”
