How we handle the gendered script of menopause, in one place.

Co-authored by Lasara Firefox Allen. A practice-level guide for clinicians on menopause in trans men and gender-diverse people assigned female at birth: what testosterone masks, how dosing compares across gender-affirming and menopause hormone therapy, bone health after stopping testosterone, and the psychosocial side that most guidelines skip.

The reference UK guideline for menopause care. One of the more gender-explicit major guidelines in this space — it names trans men and non-binary people directly in its recommendations, not just in passing.

The reference endocrinology guideline for long-term estrogen and testosterone therapy in trans patients. The midlife section is thin — acknowledged in the document itself — but it's the standard practitioners work from.

Current best summary of what the literature does and doesn't say about menopause-aged trans patients on long-term gender-affirming hormones. Honest about the gaps, which is rare.

Curated list of peer-reviewed papers, qualitative studies and grey literature on LGBTQIA+ menopause — kept more current than any single review article.

Canadian patient education on how ovarian changes, gender-affirming hormones and surgery can shape symptoms. Includes free symptom-tracking and appointment guides, with room for mixed feelings or no particular feelings about gender.

A printable week for symptoms, mood, sleep, medication or hormone doses and timing, and your own notes. Skip the cycle column if it doesn't apply. Use it for yourself, or for your next appointment.

A two-page appointment guide: name your biggest concern, ask about options and alternatives, then clarify tests, prescriptions, results and follow-up, including how a new prescription could affect gender-affirming hormones.

The closest thing this field has to a canonical site — therapist-led, research-backed, cited in NICE consultations. Holds queer, trans, non-binary and intersex experiences without flattening them.

The curated shelf inside Queer Menopause: books, articles, podcasts, first-person pieces and practitioner directories for LGBTQIA+ readers. Kept more current than any single clinic page.

The project behind the book: research notes, first-person accounts, one-to-one coaching, and IAOTH-accredited training for providers, doulas and coaches. The clearest place to watch gender-affirming midlife care being built rather than just described.

The full-length version, out Jan 13, 2026 from North Atlantic Books: 256 pages of prompts, self-advocacy scripts for medical settings, and lifestyle and prescription options set side by side, written for trans, gender-nonconforming, genderfluid and queer-bodied readers. Foreword by Marie Benkley. Listed at the publisher's page; any bookseller can order it.

IAOTH-accredited training and certification in gender-affirming menopause care, for providers, doulas and coaches. Small cohorts (15 seats for the Fall 2026 cohort), MD, DNP and PhD guest faculty, and a certified provider directory graduates can be listed in. Useful two ways: search the directory for someone already trained, or hand the course to a clinic that wants to get this right.

A free, open-access toolkit for asking about gender and sex in ways that don't erase intersex, trans, nonbinary and Two-Spirit people. Written for researchers, and just as useful for any clinic or program redesigning its intake forms or surveys.

The plain-language companion for people weighing the surgery themselves: what each ovary choice can mean for hormones, bone and heart health down the line, and the questions worth asking before consent. Free to read and share.

A free PDF written for clinicians offering gender-affirming hysterectomy and oophorectomy: what menopause-informed consent covers before surgery, including hormone planning, bone health and what changes when the ovaries go. Free to share, and worth handing to a surgical team that hasn't thought this through yet.

Clinician-reviewed plain-language guide covering both the estrogen-drop story and the still-have-ovaries story on one page. Useful to share with a doctor who needs a primer.

Long-running UK menopause resource with a section explicitly written for LGBTQ+ readers. Useful for the cis lesbian / bi reader angle that this page also has to hold.
