Intersection of Gender Diversity, Affirming Care & Suicide

from Moms 4 Trans Kids · host Dr. Lulu

Dr. Lulu is joined by Dr. Vickie, Kim, and Abby and they talk about the intersectionality of suicide prevention, gender affirming hormone treatment, and transgender individuals. They discuss a recent study that shows the positive impact of early access to gender affirming hormone therapy on reducing Suicidality in transgender individuals. The conversation highlights the importance of parental support, the challenges of navigating the healthcare system, and the need for awareness and understanding. As parents of transgender children, we understand the challenges and fears that come with supporting our children's gender identity. We are here to provide support, share our experiences, and advocate for the well-being of transgender individuals. By fostering awareness, understanding, and acceptance, we can create a more inclusive and supportive society for all. Key Takeaways: Early access to gender affirming hormone therapy can significantly reduce suicidality in transgender individuals. Parents play a crucial role in supporting their transgender children and advocating for their healthcare needs. The healthcare system can be challenging to navigate, but persistence is key in finding the right resources and support. Puberty blockers can provide a valuable pause button for transgender youth, allowing them time to explore their gender identity.

According to a study published in 2020: Female athletes receive the same amount of news coverage as they did in the 1980s. They are also often photographed in “passive” poses, compared to the “active” poses of their male counterparts.I believe, it’s time to change that!This podcast is for anyone who wants to learn about women’s sport. But I’m doing it mostly for women who like me felt like they could never understand sports, that it wasn’t their place but still deep down had an interest in it.So let’s keep learning with the athletes’ voices!
