Patient and Parent Perceptions of Disorders of Sex Development Terminology: A Pilot Study
Diagnostic terminology used for disorders of sex development (DSD) has been controversial even before the introduction of the umbrella term at the 2006 International Consensus Conference on Intersex.

However, disagreements over the implications of nomenclature can also result in a proliferation of terms contributing to confusion. The o…
Improving access to cancer genetic services: Perspectives of high-risk clients in a community-based setting
Gender destinies: Assigning gender in Disorders of Sex Development-Intersex clinics
Based on audio recordings of consultations in three U.S. paediatric multidisciplinary Disorders of Sex Development-Intersex clinics, we examine the process of gender assignment of children with 'atypical' genitalia.

A survey and semi-structured interview based on a pre-adoption…

Since 2006, medical experts and patient advocates have argued for putting the child's needs central as patient-centered care. Based on audio recordings of 31 parent-clinician interactions in three clinics of disorders of sex development, we analyze…
