Transgender and gender-diverse patients have unique healthcare needs, and ob/gyn physicians should educate themselves so they can provide appropriate, inclusive, and affirming care, an American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) committee said.
Providers should discuss patients fertility desires as early as possible in the transition process, and ensure that contraceptive options are offered beyond gender-affirming hormone therapy, according to a report from ACOG s Committee on Gynecologic Practice and Committee on Health Care for Underserved Women.
The document, which is also published in
Obstetrics & Gynecology, notes that medications for gender transition can be safely prescribed by a wide range of providers who have the appropriate education and training including ob/gyns and no specific prescribing certification is needed to provide care.

WASHINGTON - Recent data reveals that gay men living with HIV report having supportive relationships with family, friends, or in informal relationships rather than with primary romantic partners, while gay men who are HIV negative report having relationships mainly with primary partners. Additionally, gay men living with HIV were more likely to report no primary or secondary supportive partnerships compared to men who are HIV negative. The analysis was led by researchers at Georgetown University Medical Center.
Along with successful HIV treatments, it is known that the presence of social support impacts long-term survival among men living with HIV. However, little has been known about the types of supportive relationship among gay men in general, and none for those men living with HIV. Identifying the types of relationships could inform how they impact healthy aging among this community of men.
The trial included 30 kids with suspected or confirmed rabies exposure who were treated with KEDRAB (Rabies Immune Globulin [Human]) and followed for 84 days. KEDRAB was put into and around detectable wounds and/or given intramuscularly along.
