Despite efforts by medical and social activists, transgender parturients encounter barriers to adequate and gender-inclusive health care, resources, and support. We present a case of a 38-year-old transgender man presenting for induction of labor at term. Our case highlights the importance of multidisciplinary planning, appropriate gender-related language, and interventions that may ameliorate gender dysphoria during childbirth. Because some transgender men may desire childbirth, we recommend that health care providers become familiar with and respectful of the unique considerations for this patient population in the peripartum setting.
尽管医疗和社会活动家做出了努力，但跨性别产妇在获得充分和性别包容的医疗保健、资源和支持方面仍然面临障碍。我们报告了一例 38 岁的跨性别男性，足月时因引产就诊。我们的病例强调了多学科规划、适当的性别相关语言以及干预措施的重要性，这些措施可能会减轻分娩期间的性别焦虑。由于一些跨性别男性可能希望生育，因此我们建议医疗保健提供者熟悉并尊重围产期这一患者群体的独特考虑因素。
