在世界范围内,大约4.5%的成年人认为自己是跨性别者或性别多样化者(TGD),高达8.4%的年轻人认为自己是TGD (Scheim et al 2024),这表明达到生育年龄的TGD患者数量正在增加。不幸的是,为TGD人群提供高质量生殖保健的一个主要限制因素是提供者缺乏关于性别确认治疗和TGD人群特有的生殖需求的知识(Korpaisarn和Safer 2018)。此外,TGD个体在医疗环境中仍然受到歧视和虐待(Clark et al, 2023)。本期特刊,收集了9篇综述和一项调查研究(图),旨在强调照顾TGD个体的生殖健康提供者的独特考虑因素,并提高这一重要领域的知识。
期刊介绍:
Reproduction is the official journal of the Society of Reproduction and Fertility (SRF). It was formed in 2001 when the Society merged its two journals, the Journal of Reproduction and Fertility and Reviews of Reproduction.
Reproduction publishes original research articles and topical reviews on the subject of reproductive and developmental biology, and reproductive medicine. The journal will consider publication of high-quality meta-analyses; these should be submitted to the research papers category. The journal considers studies in humans and all animal species, and will publish clinical studies if they advance our understanding of the underlying causes and/or mechanisms of disease.
Scientific excellence and broad interest to our readership are the most important criteria during the peer review process. The journal publishes articles that make a clear advance in the field, whether of mechanistic, descriptive or technical focus. Articles that substantiate new or controversial reports are welcomed if they are noteworthy and advance the field. Topics include, but are not limited to, reproductive immunology, reproductive toxicology, stem cells, environmental effects on reproductive potential and health (eg obesity), extracellular vesicles, fertility preservation and epigenetic effects on reproductive and developmental processes.
