A patient education guide for patients to understand standard of care protocols during sensitive health exams. From USC Student Health. NOTE: This booklet uses “male” and “female” for purposes of referencing anatomy only. Gender identity and sex designation are more complex than a binary and are not necessarily tied to anatomy. Patients who are intersex, non-binary, or transgender—whether medically transitioning or not—have our promise to be treated with individualized attention to ensure the most socially sensitive and medically indicated care, including options for self-testing.
