Description

This teaching session is the fifth webinar in our series on LGBTQ healthcare.

This session covers an overview of LGBTQ+ reproduction and fertility, ranging from the options for reproduction in LGBTQ+ couples, to fertility preservation during transitioning. We will cover how to best support LGBTQ+ patients coming through our practise, the basic clinical details of procedures such as cryopreservation, as well as some of the legal aspects around care such as surrogacy laws.

Aimed at medical students and resident doctors who want to improve their ability and confidence when treating LGBTQ patients. Join us for this fantastic learning opportunity!
