Abstract

Among U.S. high school students 2% identify as transgender. Adolescents (12-21 yo) with gender dysphoria may seek gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT).

The purpose of this study is to examine changes in lipids, glucose, blood pressure and BMI among transgender adolescents receiving GAHT for at least 2 years compared to baseline and normative values for adolescents.
