【 摘 要 】

Associations for the support and protection of trans people started to campaign about thirty years ago for a new conception of institutional health care regarding the gender transition process, demanding a stronger power of decision and more freedom of choice for patients ; in the French public health system, this process is managed by transdisciplinary medical teams that have been accused of imposing unnecessary strict procedures and a binary view on gender and sexuality issues. Using the concept of “epistemic community”, this article analyses online communication strategies developed by trans communities, who, reacting to opaque institutions and thanks to the building of lay expertise, are offering a reappropriation and a redistribution of health knowledge through production, publication and diffusion of scientific information on the internet.
