Transgender 2

EPISODE OVERVIEW:

What happens, when you can’t be who you want to be?  And you are filled with conflict and despair.  Because all you want is to fit in, to be accepted, to be loved. To belong.  But all around you, people are judging you, isolating you.  Hate language and criticism can be an everyday reality. Sadly, this can be the life for a transgender person.  In this episode, Dr. Nandi hears two individual’s personal journeys and what lead them to transition to the opposite sex.  Joining the discussion is Clinical Psychologist Dr. Lowenthal who explains what transgender is, the difference between homosexuality and transgender, and what one can do if they are struggling with a loved one’s gender identity.  Dr. Nandi discusses potential benefits and risks with Dr. Berlin from The John Hopkins University School of Medicine that one should fully be aware of before sex reassignment surgery.
