The U.K.’s National Health Services (NHS) will update its constitution to define sex as biological sex, the agency announced Tuesday.
“We are defining sex as biological sex,” the NHS states in a portion of their proposed changes to the constitution that sets guidance about patients receiving “intimate care” from doctors of the same sex.
The NHS constitution is updated every 10 years by the U.K.’s Secretary of State and was last updated in 2015, according to The Telegraph.
