RESUMO
Pregnancy and lactation involve two aspects that are socially and culturally associated with women. However, there are a few biological differences between male and female breast tissue. Lactation and pregnancy are viable processes that do not depend on sex. Even for the latter, it is only necessary to have an organ capable of gestation. Ways to favor mammogenesis and lactogenesis in trans* women have been established. There are protocols to promote lactation in trans* women, usually used for adoptive mothers or those whose children have been born through gestational surrogacy. Chestfeeding a baby could be the cause of feelings as diverse as gender dysphoria in the case of trans* men, and euphoria and affirmation of femininity in trans* women. This study involves a review of the available scientific literature addressing medical aspects related to pregnancy and lactation in trans* individuals, giving special attention to nursing care during perinatal care. There are scarce studies addressing care and specifically nursing care in trans* pregnancy and lactation. Our study indicates the factors that can be modified and the recommendations for optimizing the care provided to these individuals in order to promote and maintain the lactation period in search of improvement and satisfaction with the whole process.

La menopausia supone una etapa de grandes cambios para la mujer. De entre las principales complicaciones que podemos encontrar, una de ellas corresponde al Síndrome Genitourinario de la Menopausia (SGM) de alta prevalencia en la salud de la mujer climatérica y que se manifiesta mediante la atrofia vulvovaginal, sequedad, dispareunia e irritación, principalmente. Pese a su gran prevalencia, es poco consultado en las valoraciones de salud por parte de los profesionales sanitarios, y se desconocen las terapias alternativas al tratamiento estrogénico tópico como la aplicación de fórmulas con Ácido Hialurónico (AH), un polisacárido natural de la matriz extracelular de la piel que ha mostrado una mejora significativa en el alivio de los síntomas, por su alta capacidad en la retención de agua y en la regeneración de los tejidos. Este estudio supone una actualización de las terapias disponibles con AH y sus principales resultados en el control de las manifestaciones del síndrome

Despite its great prevalence, it is rarely consulted in health assessments by healthcare professionals, and alternative therapies to topical estrogenic treatment such as the application of formulas with Hyaluronic Acid (HA), a natural polysaccharide of the extracellular matrix of the skin that has shown a significant improvement in symptom relief, due to its high capacity in water retention and tissue regeneration, are unknown. This study implies an update of the therapies available with HA and its main results in the control of the manifestations of the syndrome
