China Gender-affirming Hormone Therapy Study
Recruiting now
Conditions studied: Transgender, Gender Incongruence
In brief
Data about transgender medical care, especially the gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) is extremely insufficient in China. Few evidence exists in the physical and psychological effects of the hormonal treatment in Chinese transgender population. CGAHT is designed to describe the social and mental condition of transgender people who are seeking for formal GAHT, and to investigate the physical and psychological effects of GAHT on this population in China.
