LGBTQ+ Fertility preservation for trans people and those supporting them through the journey

A webinar in conjunction with Pride Month 2023, looking at the decision making processes when considering Gender Affirming Hormone Therapy (GAHT) and fertility preservation. GAHT medication can affect fertility, careful counselling regarding timing of fertility preservation and long term reproductive sequelae should be discussed with every patient considering these therapies. Hosted by Dr Orestis Tsonis, specialist in Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Specialty doctor in Assisted Conception, Fertility Preservation Service at Guy’s And St Thomas’ Hospital NHS Foundation Trust. Dr Tsonis offers non surgical and surgical fertility preservation for oncologic patients at Guy’s Hospital, as well as under-represented groups of patients in the LGBTQ+ community, including transgender and non binary individuals. He is currently working actively to establish an evidence based service for the latter group of patients. https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/00H370/ This link for self referral for Fertility Preservation at Guys Hospital and also has information regarding ICBs (Integrated Care Boards, formerly known as CCG clinical commissioning groups) and funding criteria per region https://obgyn.onlinelibrary.wiley.com... TOG article on transgender care- there is a misconception regarding controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) duration - it states 5 weeks, however with the adoption of a random start approach the overall process requires 10 to 14 days of stimulation +2 days till egg collection, which signifies the final step of the process- thus, overall 2 to 2.5 weeks are enough in most cases. The same approach we use for the purposes of oncofertility where urgent treatment is required.
