Transgender people 'denied chance to preserve fertility on NHS' according to Dundee study
Reading now: 893
dailyrecord.co.ukSome transgender people in Scotland are being denied the chance to preserve their fertility on the NHS due to a 'postcode lottery', a new study has claimed.
The joint study - partly carried out by Ninewells Hospital Medical School - found 'patchy care' for freezing eggs and sperm.
It also claimed young girls undergoing cancer treatment – and women who cannot delay chemotherapy – were also unlikely to be offered the option to preserve their ovarian tissue.
The study led by University College London Hospital and Oxford University Hospital is now calling for a standard UK policy for those needing to preserve their fertility.

Heartstopper review: The queer teen drama about to transform the lives of all LGBTQ+ people forever
Heartstopper follows Charlie and Nick, two young LGBTQ+ schoolboys falling in love, conquering their shame, fear and bullies to bravely live as their authentic selves. Charlie is an out gay teen after unwillingly being forced out of the closet, while Nick is a popular jock on the rugby team, surrounded by toxic masculinity, and the very real and relatable pressure of battling with his sexuality while ‘fitting in’. Charlie and Nick are surrounded by various wonders from the LGBTQ+ community: two lesbians, Tara and Darcy pave the way for Nick to confront his own complicated feelings by snogging at a school dance and going Instagram official; Elle is a trans female who moves from the all boys school to its neighbouring all girls comprehensive and is alive with hope, romance and lust for cis straight male Tao – a storyline unrecognisable in British television thus far. Over the course of eight episodes, Charlie builds his confidence after being tortured in a secret relationship with the school bully, and with the help of Nick he finds himself.
