Clinical Outreach Scheme
- HRT related niche contraception because often people on testosterone slack on contraception because being on T drastically decreases the fertility of people assigned female at birth. If the person in T misses their dose for at least one day and have unprotected sex on that day, there's always the possibility of getting pregnant. Often, such intricate relations between HRT and fertility is not well understood by those undergo it. Further, it's extremely important to create general awareness drives about this since it's integral in creating awareness among trans people who haven't come out yet or get their hormones from uncertified/illegal sources due to dire circumstances.
- Clinical Outreach Team should be like Teaching hospitals with attendings and residents, representing diversity in the population and bridging the generation gap.
- Compensation for contraception might be a bit too much for the budget of the Scheme considering the population levels of the country. Adding workshops on thermal contraception (4 years worth of research) which only needs a silicon ring and is healthy, natural, reversible, almost perfectly fool-proof and environmentally sustainable might help, even if not completely without compensation at first but over time. It 'pauses' the fertility of people with testes and most importantly, the silicon ring can be manufactured in different sizes. Another important factor is that there have been no side-effects discovered since it uses the original home of the testicles before they descend during puberty and is perfectly reversible.
