This article discusses how careproviders of all types can help people with differences of sexual development (DSD): people with ambiguous genitalia, who used to be referred to as intersexed. Careproviders may be in a unique position to benefit these people by offering to discuss difficult issues that concern them, even when the discussions are brief. Specific interventions include learning about people with DSD, whether through the literature or in the clinic; treating them with optimal respect; raising difficult topics such as sex, fertility, and social stigma; encouraging them and helping them to meet others with DSD; and sharing the strengths that we can see that they have. We have come far, but have a long way to go.
本文讨论了各种类型的护理人员如何帮助具有不同性发育差异（DSD）的人：具有生殖器模糊的人，过去曾被称为间性人。护理人员可以通过讨论他们关心的困难问题来为这些人提供独特的帮助，即使讨论很简短。具体的干预措施包括通过文献或在诊所学习了解 DSD 患者；以最佳的尊重方式对待他们；提出诸如性、生育能力和社会耻辱感等困难话题；鼓励他们并帮助他们与其他 DSD 患者见面；以及分享我们可以看到的他们的优势。我们已经取得了很大的进步，但还有很长的路要走。
