Evaluation of Human Papillomavirus Vaccination and Cancer Prevention Behaviors among LGBTQI + Individuals: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination and cervical cancer screening rates are suboptimal in the US, particularly among historically underserved groups like Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersex (LGBTQI+)-identifying women and transgender men. Therefore, our cross-sectional study assessed factors associated with these rates among LGBTQI+-identifying women and transgender men.HPV-related cancer knowledge, HPV vaccination and cervical cancer screening status, and the acceptability of self-collection for screening of 1983 LGBTQI+-identifying women and transgender men was assessed via an online survey available to members of the HER mobile app from March to May 2022.
