Clinic for transgender youth opens at Toronto's Sick Kids hospital
The Canadian Press, October 11, 2013 3:06PM EDT

A new Toronto clinic for transgender youth is seeing its first patients today.

The clinic at Sick Kids hospital has officially opened and administrators say it will help fill an important gap in care for teens with gender dysphoria.

Gender dysphoria is diagnosed in people whose gender identity doesn't match their anatomical sex.

Sick Kids says gender dysphoria is relatively rare, but increased awareness and acceptance has led more teens to identify as transgender.
