Effectiveness of an Educational Intervention to Improve Medical Student Comfort and Familiarity With Providing Gender-Affirming Hormone Therapy.

Background And Objectives: Gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) is a key component in the primary care of transgender and gender-nonconforming (TGNC) people. However, physicians are hesitant to initiate GAHT, citing a lack of knowledge. We developed an educational program for medical students and sought to investigate whether medical students' comfort and familiarity with GAHT could increase after a short interactive program.
