Understanding your options
Chicago, IL has 8 providers offering gender-affirming care for transgender, nonbinary, and gender-diverse patients. Access to knowledgeable, affirming clinicians can significantly reduce the barriers and delays that many trans and nonbinary people face when seeking medical care.
Gender-affirming care providers in Chicago may offer hormone therapy (estrogen or testosterone), informed-consent protocols that respect patient autonomy, support for name and gender marker updates, pre- and post-operative care for those pursuing gender-affirming surgery, and coordination with mental health and surgical providers.
Approaches to care vary.
