Article Synopsis
- The study compared Autism Spectrum Quotient (AQ) scores between hormone-naïve transgender individuals and cisgender individuals, while also exploring how gender-affirming hormonal treatment (GAHT) affects these scores over time.
- Significant differences were found in AQ scores, with ciswomen having the lowest and cismen the highest scores, and transgender individuals experiencing higher levels of gender dysphoria, body uneasiness, alexithymia, and social anxiety than their cisgender counterparts.
- Following GAHT, both transmen and transwomen showed a notable decrease in AQ scores, suggesting that the traits observed might stem from gender dysphoria rather than a definitive Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) condition.

Local food movements and concerns about food security have sparked a growing interest in urban farming.
