Abstract
Fertility preservation (FP) is critical for those members of the transgender community who desire biological offspring in the future. As gender-affirming hormone therapy and gender-affirming surgeries (GASs) negatively affect future fertility potential, awareness amongst care providers and the transgender population regarding FP and family-building options is the need of the hour. As the first case of childbirth after transgender FP and GAS in India, this will be a beacon of hope for transgender family-building options in India.
生育力保护(FP)对于那些希望将来生育后代的变性群体成员来说至关重要。由于性别确认激素疗法和性别确认手术(GASs)会对未来的生育能力产生负面影响,因此,提高医疗服务提供者和变性人对生育力保护和家庭建设选择的认识是当务之急。作为印度第一例变性 FP 和 GAS 后生育的病例,这将成为印度变性人建立家庭选择的希望灯塔。
