Government & Organisations, Health, Media, Media, Mental Health, News & Politics, Sexuality, Society & Culture, the informer, World News

On this episode of The Informer we look at the findings from a study into fertility preservation decision making amongst trans and non-binary Australians and discover a depth to the diversity and layered issues in the data, which trans and non-binary people face when or if they consider fertility preservation.

 

And, we take a deeper look into conversion therapy in Australia, as we speak to a psychologist who not only specialises in treating people who have gone through conversion therapy, but it a survivor of conversion therapy himself, as we look at the long-lasting damage this so called therapy can cause.

This episode of The Informer aired on JOY 94.9.
