Program Abstract:
Clinicians in student health may see transgender patients who are transitioning and will need to understand medical guidelines for hormone management, lab monitoring, expected physical changes, and safety concerns. This presentation will consist of a panel discussion of clinical insights and lessons learned as well as review of evidence-based guidelines (UCSF, W-PATH, Endocrine Society). We will consider questions that have arisen in our own practice - for example, IM estrogens, off-label medications, lab findings.
