Publisher: Oxford University Press


Simona Giordano delves into the ethical implications surrounding the clinical options available for transgender and gender diverse children and adolescents. From the early expressions of gender incongruence to the potential decisions of older adolescents regarding medical or surgical treatments, moral questions arise: should children be allowed to freely express themselves within and outside their homes? What consequences do parents' choices have early on? How should clinicians address concerns related to sexual anatomy? Is it ethical to suspend pubertal development? What level of evidence should guide the use of medications in pediatric care? What are the risks and benefits of different forms of hormonal treatment? Should surgical interventions be deferred until adulthood? Giordano offers a comprehensive ethical analysis of these and numerous other questions that may arise at different stages of a person's life. In Children and Gender, she combines a detailed ethical examination with a precise clinical portrayal of gender development and the available clinical pathways.
