Answer: Transgender care

Step-by-step explanation:

Transgender care/transgender health.

Transgender health care refers to the care of transgender people which include diagnosis of disease, treatment, prevention, cure of physical or mental health disease.

Transgenders gender differ from expectation of the society and they include trans men or trans women whom have switched gender different from the one they had at birth. Gender dysphoria was considered as a mental disorder many years ago by the World Health Organization and this was referred to as trans sexualism.

Some studies opined that treating the medical condition of gender variance had negative effect on the health of transgender people. Some studies were of the opinion that gender difference diagnosis may be important and positive. The sex reassignment therapy assist people in changing their sex characteristics through hormone replacement therapy and sex reassignment theory.

Health care should be provided at the point of transitioning because it is very important. In hormone replacement therapy, trans women are always treated with estrogen and complementary anti-androgenic therapy while trans men are treated with exogenous testosterone which helps to stop menstruation, increase hair and muscle growth and so on.

The sex reassignment surgery helps to make alignment of secondary sexual characteristics of transgender to their gender identity. Trans are mostly opportunity for adolescents and sometimes youths. Sometimes, puberty blocker is used. Many trans individuals face many risk due to less support from family and friends which can result in depression. FNP work in producing help to trans men and women.
