[Affirming one's gender: supporting and accompanying trans young people and their families].

Support for trans teenagers and young adults is based on a comprehensive approach to care, taking into account the needs and desires of the individual and his or her environment. It involves welcoming their requests and listening to their questions, in order to help them assert themselves. The aim is to be particularly attentive to these young people, sometimes in vulnerable psychological, social and educational situations, as well as to their families, by welcoming them, listening to them and taking charge of them through multidisciplinary networks.

Transgender fathering: Children's psychological and family outcomes.

Medical advances in assisted reproductive technology have created new ways for transgender persons to become parents outside the context of adoption. The limited empirical data does not support the idea that trans-parenthood negatively impacts children's development. However, the question has led to lively societal debates making the need for evidence-based studies urgent.

The Developmental Implications of the Use of Reproductive Technologies for Transgender People: A Comparative Cross-Section Protocol.

Background: Today, individuals and couples with fertility issues can use advances in biomedical technologies to conceive. Transgender persons also benefit from these advances and can not only actualize their self-identified gender identities but also experience parenthood. These strategies for persons to self-actualize and to access parenthood have improved the condition of transgender persons.

Biotechnologies that empower transgender persons to self-actualize as individuals, partners, spouses, and parents are defining new ways to conceive a child: psychological considerations and ethical issues.

Today, thanks to biomedical technologies advances, some persons with fertility issues can conceive. Transgender persons benefit also from these advances and can not only actualize their self-identified sexual identities but also experience parenthood. Based on clinical multidisciplinary seminars that gathered child psychiatrists and psychoanalysts interested in the fields of assisted reproduction technology (ART) and gender dysphoria, philosophers interested in bioethics, biologists interested in ART, and endocrinologists interested in pubertal suppression, we explore how new biotechnical advances, whether in gender transition or procreation, could create new ways to conceive a child possible.
