In connection with the project Empowering LBT Women, LGL has published a brochure about lesbian, bisexual and trans (LBT) women’s health, providing information on various topics, for example sexual and mental health. The brochure is aimed at both LBT women and their healthcare providers.

LBT women’s invisibility remains an issue in society in general, healthcare services being no exception. The brochure therefore gives healthcare providers concise and understandable advice on how to be inclusive, for example by asking “Are you sexually active?” instead of “When was the last time you had sexual intercourse?”.

The brochure is distributed in Vilnius at the LGBT Centre and Soho Club. It can also be downloaded here.
