You are right, this is necessary, also in Austria. At /usr/lib/python3.6/sitepackages/trytond/modules/health/health.py in line 452 there is gender=fields.Selection([  and then male and female. As I added "divers" and restarted the client, nothing changed. Probably it would be be necessary to update the health module, but I did not try that. And I am not aware of which impact it would have to add this third gender for other modules or algorithms, but maybe I will try it in the future.

Kind regards

Edgar
