How do we care for patients who once believed changing their gender was the answer, only to find themselves in need of medical care, support, and acknowledgment?

This week, IMA Head of Medical and Scientific Affairs and host Dr. Ryan Cole was joined by IMA Senior Fellow in Pediatrics Dr. Katherine Welch, pediatric critical care nurse and founder of The Center for Bioethics and Culture Network Jennifer Lahl, RN, and detransitioner Forrest Smith for an important conversation on the often untold medical, psychological, and legal realities of detransitioning.

Together, they examined the gaps in care, recognition, and follow-up that many detransitioners now face, and considered what a more honest, compassionate, and patient-centered response should look like.

• Discussion points included:

• Why detransitioners are so often overlooked or dismissed

• The ongoing medical, psychological, and legal challenges they may face

• Where meaningful support, better care, and real progress are beginning to emerge
