Abstract:
For a long time reduced to sexual and reproductive health issues (human immunodeficiency virus and medically assisted procreation in particular), lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) health has recently shifted to other topics that make it possible to report on the relationship between LGBT people and health care. A recent study attempts to qualify and quantify the fears, avoidances, strategies and representations that LGBT people have of the care, health care bodies and caregivers they encounter. It is possible to summarise some of the trends in this research and to propose avenues and topics to better support LGBT people in their care journey.
