"People who are not content to remain the gender they were assigned at birth have existed throughout human history and in all recorded cultures (Herdt, 1996). Naturally the experiences of people in the contemporary high-income cultures which are the focus of this book will be informed by the understandings and technology available now, but fundamentally gender diversity is not a new phenomenon. It is therefore curious that, until recently, it was commonly thought that gender diversity was so rare that it would not trouble most psychiatrists or psychologists in their usual course of work. This is no longer the case, as there has recently been an exponential increase in the number of gender diverse people coming forward, which mirrors that of same-sex-attracted people a couple of decades before. Most likely this is once again due to the greater, although still tenuous, social acceptance being shown towards sexual and gender diversity in some countries. It follows therefore that psychiatrists and others will have seen gender diverse people throughout their careers, but without necessarily being aware that they were doing so"--

Dans le domaine de la gynécologie obstétrique, et plus globalement de la santé sexuelle, les professionnel(le)s sont amené(e)s de plus en plus à prendre en charge des femmes lesbiennes, des hommes et femmes transgenres et des hommes gays. Les médecins et les sages-femmes sont souvent désarmés face à ces populations et ne possèdent pas les connaissances nécessaires pour donner le meilleur accueil et les soins les mieux adaptés aux patient(e)s. Cet ouvrage réunit des spécialistes expérimentés concernant la santé sexuelle et reproductive des personnes LGBT. Il aborde, entre autres, l'accueil d'une personne LGBT en consultation, le suivi gynécologique, le dépistage et la prévention des infections sexuellement transmissibles, le bien-être sexuel, la contraception et l'avortement, la prise en charge endocrinologique et chirurgicale d'une personne trans, le désir d'enfant, le suivi d'une grossesse. Il a pour objectif de réunir toutes les connaissances nécessaires pour une bonne prise en charge de ces patient(e)s et apporte, par son côté pluridisciplinaire (médecine, psychologie, sexologie, sociologie et démographie), un éclairage sur la diversité et les mobilités de genre et de sexualité. Cet ouvrage s'adresse à tous les professionnel(le)s de santé qui rencontrent ces populations et, en particulier, aux gynécologues médicaux et gynécologues-obstétriciens, ainsi qu'aux endocrinologues, médecins généralistes et sages-femmes, voire aux personnes concernées

Dépakine, Mediator, Distilbène, Agréal, Essure, Levothyrox… Les médicaments à destination des femmes constituent l’essentiel des scandales pharmaceutiques des soixante dernières années. Pour tout le monde, le Mediator résonne comme le scandale pharmaceutique de cette décennie. Mais qui sait que, derrière les milliers de victimes de cet antidiabétique utilisé comme un coupe-faim, se cache une très grande majorité de femmes ? Dernièrement, l’Androcur, prescrit contre l’hirsutisme (surpilosité), a défrayé la chronique en favorisant chez celles qui y avaient recours le développement de tumeurs au cerveau. Plus récemment encore, le Levothyrox, prescrit à 85 % à la gent féminine, s’est ajouté à cette litanie.En France, le phénomène, invisible, reste hors des radars des autorités sanitaires. Ailleurs dans le monde, on s’interroge davantage. « Entre 1997 et 2001, 80 % des médicaments retirés du marché posaient plus de problèmes aux femmes qu’aux hommes », notait dans un rapport la Cour des comptes américaine. D’autres pays cherchent à connaître les raisons de la forte présence des femmes parmi les victimes des effets secondaires.Il est grand temps de lancer l’alerte : de la fabrication du médicament à son utilisation, des laboratoires aux institutions en passant par les prescripteurs, quand le patient est une patiente, c’est tout un système qui déraille.

"Many LGBTQ youth are still forced into harmful "treatments" with devastating mental health consequences. This volume explores the history, effects, and danger of so-called conversion therapy. Because conversion "therapy" is not actually therapeutic, it is now more accurately referred to as sexual orientation change efforts (SOCE) or gender identity change efforts (GICE). What does the record show about the efficacy and effects of SOCE and GICE? What motivates individuals to seek these harmful treatments, either for themselves or for their children? This book synthesizes findings from a vast literature base to answer these and other important questions, in hopes of fully discrediting SOCE and GICE once and for all. Over the last four decades, considerable research has showed SOCE to be not only ineffective, but harmful. As a result of these findings, professional organizations such as the American Psychological Association (APA) have denounced the practice and recommended affirmative, supportive treatment instead. Although SOCE have been widely discredited, they remain legal in most states and continue to be practiced with lesbian, gay, and bisexual children and adolescents. Furthermore, as the past 20 years have seen an increase in gender nonconforming and transgender individuals, there has been a similar rise in efforts to socially reprogram gender nonconforming children and adolescents. This volume is grounded in the principle long embraced by the scientific and healthcare communities-that same-sex attraction and gender nonconformity are not signs of psychopathology. Rather, sexual and gender minority individuals should be supported in embracing their own identities. This affirmative approach to practice with sexual and gender minorities is consistent with decades of APA policy and ethics"--
