Abstract
There are numerous contributing factors to the overall health of a person as well as factors that dictate the best course of treatment. A great contributor to that decision is the biological sex, it can influence every decision that a medical provider makes for their patient. With transgenderism, let us not forget that in the medical community, knowing the biological sex of the patient is crucial for proper patient care and accurate diagnosis. In healthcare, the sex of a patient means more than just "male" or "female". It gives a clearer understanding of what the underlying issue may be. That includes taking reproductive organs into account for possible causes of abnormal signs and symptoms. As an even clearer picture, being able to identify the proper sex-chromosome pair (XX or XY) allows professionals to be concious of X- linked recessive disorders.
