They offer a space to discuss clinical situations encountered by professionals supporting the families of trans and gender-questioning adolescents. Medical, psychological, social, ethical, and lived-experience expertise come together to inform decisions about care pathways, particularly when a medical intervention is being considered (initial prescription of puberty blockers or hormones, or gender-affirming surgery). These MDTs do not replace routine follow-up or the clinical relationship with the young person and their family: they aim to improve practice, support the individualized assessment of requests, encourage the sharing of experience between teams, and ensure constant attention to free and informed consent, evolving autonomy, life circumstances, and the overall health of the adolescents concerned. These MDTs have been discussed in a     <\/span><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/j.neurenf.2022.10.003\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">scientific article published here<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p><b>If you are a health professional<\/b> and would like to submit the situation of a minor in your care to the MDT for an opinion prior to prescribing puberty blockers or hormones, or prior to gender-affirming surgery, please note that the MDT will only issue an opinion if both the physician providing somatic care (endocrinologist, gynecologist, pediatrician, general practitioner, etc.) and the mental health professional (psychiatrist, child and adolescent psychiatrist, psychologist) supporting the minor attend the MDT (by videoconference). In addition, the health professional must have obtained the consent of the holders of parental authority, and sought the consent of the minor concerned, for the requested care to be discussed at the MDT. Priority is given to cases from the \u00cele-de-France (Paris) region. The MDT meets once a month, on a Monday afternoon. To request the MDT\u2019s opinion, please send an email to <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"mailto:catherine.lemene@aphp.fr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">catherine.lemene@aphp.fr<\/a><\/span>. During the meeting, you must share only the information strictly necessary for your patient\u2019s care and, in particular, take care not to disclose any details that could identify them (such as their last name) to participants who are not part of their care team (as defined by <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.legifrance.gouv.fr\/codes\/article_lc\/LEGIARTI000031919050\/2026-10-23\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Article L. 1110-12 of the French Public Health Code<\/a><\/span>).  <\/p>\n<p><b>If you are the person concerned<\/b> by a care request presented at the MDT, you and\/or your parents may ask to take part in the MDT by videoconference.
