Answer: the care provider must seek informed consent before starting a course of treatment
Explanation: The World Professional Association for Transgender Health added a point to the Standard of Care Document demanding that care providers provide detailed information to clients and seek consent before going ahead with a treatment.
The document also adds that whenever a treatment is different from the Standard of Care due to a client's anatomical difference, the health professional should explain any changes they have to make to accommodate this difference to the client and document the client’s understanding and consent.
