Clinical, Psychosocial, and Ethical Consideration in Assisted Reproductive Technology in Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer+ Populations.

When evaluating reproductive care for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer+ patients, there are multiple factors that must be addressed from a clinician, clinic, and social standpoint. Clinicians should be trained in culturally humble and trauma-informed care; clinics should have intake forms that identify sexual orientation, gender identity, and pronouns. The clinic environment should be inclusive, with all gender or single-stall bathrooms, and patient-facing educational materials that are representative of individuals with diverse partnerships, races, and ethnicities. In order to provide genuine culturally humble care, clinicians must be adequately trained and clinics must be appropriately prepared.
