Abstract:

Objective: To apprehend the difficulties experienced by Human Milk Bank professionals and users of health services in assisting transgender men in the context of chestfeeding, based on Interseccionality. Method: This is a qualitative descriptive-exploratory study based on interviews with 6 professionalsthe Human Milk Bank, who previously assisted trans men in the context of chestfeeding, and two bisexual trans men, who chestfed. The data was treated by Thematic Analysis, supported by Atlas.ti software version 9.0. Results: There are gaps in the educational, institutional and management spheres, associated with personal and social issues that reproduce a pre-conceived normative model, disregarding the singularities required in assistance to the trans population in the context of chestfeeding. Conclusion: Cisheteronormativity and professional supremacy operate in personal, social and institutional spheres for the segregation of transgender men in lactation support services. The intersectional analysis of these obstacles allows a global vision of the segregation factors and allows the implementation of public policies to promote social justice.
