Patterns of psychotropic medication prescribing and potential drug-hormone interactions among transgender and gender-diverse adults within 2 years of hormone therapy.

Background: Transgender and gender-diverse (TGD) people have a high prevalence of psychotropic medication use, yet knowledge about the patient-level psychotropic medication burden is limited. TGD patients may take hormone therapy to meet their gender expression goals. Potential drug-hormone interactions exist between psychotropic medications and hormone therapy, requiring increased knowledge about psychotropic medication use for TGD adults undergoing hormone therapy.
