Legal processes

Gender health care for transgender and gender diverse children and adolescents in Australia continues to be scrutinised in an increasingly polarised socio-political climate. Courts have labelled this area of health care “innovative”, “experimental” and “unique”,1 with treatment options often raising moral, ethical, human rights and clinical dilemmas. These problems include respect for children's evolving autonomy, the role of family in supporting health care outcomes, and the influence of cisnormative assumptions and socio-cultural expectations of gender.
