Abstract

Fertility preservation (FP) offers transgender and non-binary (TNB) youth the option to freeze gametes for future use. Decisions about FP are complex because: (1) there is limited and conflicting research on the effects of gender-affirming medical interventions on fertility, (2) pediatric FP options and assisted reproductive technologies are rapidly evolving, (3) TNB youth must consider parenting desires during a developmental stage at which they may not be ready to engage in family building discussions, and (4) impaired fertility affects future quality of life rather than current functioning.
