The need of patient involvement in transgender health care research
Abstract
In recent years, an unprecedented increase in clinical research in transgender health linked to a substantial increase in the clinical need of transgender people (in the broadest sense, ie, transgender, transsexual, and gender diverse) has been reported. In consequence, new professional networks such as the European Professional Association for Transgender Health (EPATH), the Australian and New Zealand Professional Association for Transgender Health, the Brazilian Professional Association for Transgender Health, and the United States Professional Association for Transgender Health (USPATH); specialist academic journals such as Transgender Studies Quarterly and Transgender Health; and specific sections on transgender health research in established journals such as the Journal of Sexual Medicine have emerged.
