Recommendations of the Polish Sexological Society on medical care in transgender adults - position statement of the expert panel

Psychiatr Pol. 2021 Jun 30;55(3):701-708. doi: 10.12740/PP/OnlineFirst/125785. Epub 2021 Jun 30.ABSTRACTAttempts at unifying the diagnostic and therapeutic procedures for transgender individuals experiencing gender dysphoria were first undertaken in Poland in the 1980s. Since then, there has been a change in the perception of transgenderism, almost paradigmatic, expressed in subsequent editions of the diagnostic systems (DSM, ICD), which is also associated with the fundamental changes in the principles of conducting trans-specific healthcare. This triggered the need to formulate recommendations for specialists practicing in Poland, which would at least partly reflect the evolution of views and guidelines on clinical care in transgender adults seeking help due to gender dysphoria.PMID:34460891 | DOI:10.12740/PP/OnlineFirst/125785
