To explore midwives' thoughts on providing antenatal care to pregnant transmen.
A qualitative study based on semi-structured, individual interviews with 12 midwives during January 2022. Systematic text condensation was used for data analysis.
The analysis of the data material resulted in three result categories: 1) Gender transition and the desire to have children - exposure of the phenomenon can help to avoid stigmatisation, 2) A pregnant person is a pregnant person no matter what - the midwife's role in meeting a pregnant man, and 3) Being a man but using the body as a woman - the knowledge is lacking in the textbooks.
The study showed that midwives have little knowledge about pregnant transmen. The knowledge gaps will remain unfilled unless more research is done on the topic, and sufficient information provides for good procedures and standards of care. Access to information about pregnant transmen and experiences of their encounters with midwives will contribute with new knowledge and over time, changes in attitudes, both professional and private.
探讨助产士对为跨性别男性孕妇提供产前护理的想法。
这是一项基于 2022 年 1 月对 12 名助产士进行的半结构化、个体访谈的定性研究。采用系统文本压缩法进行数据分析。
对资料的分析产生了三个结果类别:1)性别过渡和生育愿望——现象的暴露有助于避免污名化,2)怀孕的人就是怀孕的人,不管性别如何——助产士在满足跨性别男性孕妇方面的角色,以及 3)作为男性但使用女性身体——教材中缺乏相关知识。
研究表明,助产士对跨性别男性孕妇知之甚少。除非对此主题进行更多研究并提供充足的信息以制定良好的程序和护理标准,否则知识空白将仍然存在。获取有关跨性别男性孕妇的信息以及助产士遇到他们的经验,将有助于获得新知识,随着时间的推移,专业和私人的态度也会发生变化。
