Article Synopsis
- Hormone treatment (HT) is essential for gender-affirming care, but guidelines often overlook the needs of nonbinary and genderqueer (NBGQ) individuals compared to binary transgender (BT) people.
- A study involving 602 applicants found that NBGQ individuals were less likely to receive conventional HT and more likely to receive tailored HT than BT individuals, with significant differences in treatment outcomes.
- The study highlights the need for individualized endocrine counseling for NBGQ individuals and calls for more qualitative and prospective research to develop customized HT regimens.
