Finally, just over a year after the legislation passed, Births Deaths and Marriages have updated their protocols and from June 24th people born in Qld can change their gender on their birth certificates without needing to undergo surgery!
If you haven’t yet heard, the Cass review commissioned by the UK NHS has come down against puberty blockers and hormones for trans youth.
If you’re in Darwin this is for you! Every few months since about 2016 I’ve been going up to Darwin to work at this amazing monthly LGBTQI+ clinic operating out of @northsidehealthnt thanks to the dedicated owners. It’s a bulk-billed clinic which focuses on providing medical care for all LGBTQI+ people, with a special emphasis on trans health. Every month a different doctor is there, offering Informed Consent hormone therapy and experienced medical care for trans folk. It’s one of my favourite gigs! Will be there later this month!
This weekend I had the privilege of presenting a plenary and workshops on gender affirming care to a bunch of Australian HIV clinicians, and it was a great experience. Such an engaged audience, and hopefully my talks will result in some increased awareness and even changes in practice. This is my favourite topic! #genderaffirmingcare #transrightsarehumanrights
Happy International Women’s Day! I’d like to take this opportunity to talk about menopause - something that has had a bit of a media presence lately, with conflicting messages. Menopause is a time in our lives where life can be very challenging, and the various symptoms can include sleep disruption, mood disturbance, and debilitating hot flushes (you just don’t get how debilitating until you experience it repeatedly while trying to get on with your day or night).
Watching Mardi Gras on the telly is never as much fun as the real thing- until you see your sister and brother-in-law at the front of the #freemumhugs float! Go Kate and Frank!! ❤️🌈🏳️⚧️#sydneygayandlesbianmardigras #transrightsarehumanrights
Isn’t she a love ❤️🙂😊
