Abstract
Trans and gender diverse people require access to gender-affirming gynaecological care, yet health care providers often lack the training needed to provide such care. This commentary explores the inclusion of trans health in the Australian gynecology curriculum and identifies key enablers and barriers to the inclusion of content relevant to trans health care. We draw from global education research to develop curricula recommendations to improve future medical doctors’ knowledge of, and ability to provide care for, trans patients. We highlight the need for unbiased, nonpathologizing, and intersectional content that centers the lived experience of trans and gender diverse people.
