The majority of individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are males, and we are only scratching the surface in understanding a comprehensive approach to these patients and the behavioral health problems they encounter. Yet there is another group of autistic patients who are rarely discussed—females on the spectrum face unique challenges, especially during puberty, courtship, motherhood, and employment. Dr. Greenberg will focus on this often overlooked group, delving into issues such as sexuality and inappropriate sexual behaviors, birth control and fertility problems, and how these difficulties impact daily living. This session will also highlight factors that often precipitate a visit to the mental health provider and how we as clinicians can be a resource to these patients and families.
