Abstract

There are nearly two million trans and gender diverse (TGD) people in the United States (U.S.). Most research about TGD patients has been focused on the initiation and completion of gender-affirming care. Because some aspects of gender-affirming care might affect future fertility, it is important to assess whether fertility preservation is an established part of hospital services and comprehensive care models. While websites may not accurately represent all care offered by a facility, they serve as an initial gateway for TGD patients to access care. We surveyed publicly available websites of U.S. hospitals and evaluated access to fertility care for TGD patients.
