TRANSMASCULINE PREGNANCY WITH PROFESSOR SUSAN BEWLEY

Our first event of the academic year 2022-23 will be a talk delivered by Professor Susan Bewley discussing a recent Systematic Review on Transmasculine Pregnancy.

​

The talk will aim to discuss answers to questions such as: What is the incidence of pregnancy among transmasculine people? What are the associations and clinical outcomes of these pregnancies? What are the health needs associated with this group in pregnancy?

​

The event will consist of a talk delivered by Prof Bewley, followed by an occasion to ask questions. There will then be an opportunity for discussion and socialising.  

​

This event is taking place in collaboration with Trans Healthcare Now (a student-led volunteering project that aims to increase knowledge and awareness of trans healthcare inequalities within the UK).
