NCT04760691
This is a research study to determine the best way to dose Truvada®, an oral medication licensed to be taken as Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) to prevent HIV infection, in transgender women who are also taking feminizing hormones. The duration of the study is about 4 months, and involves a screening visit, a baseline visit with colon biopsies and kidney function testing, and several outpatient visits, including 5 intensive sampling visits that last about 9 hours and involve colon biopsies, kidney function testing and other blood specimen collections. After the baseline visit, participants will start on PrEP, daily Truvada® pills, and will continue on the Truvada® for 5 weeks. Participants will then receive either an injection of Lupron, oral low-dose estradiol or oral high-dose estradiol, which will be taken along with the Truvada® PrEP for 1-2 weeks before returning for an intensive sampling visit.
NCT07252687
Breast dysphoria in transmasculine or genderdiverse individuals is a distinct psychological burden associated with depression, anxiety and suicidality. The aim is to systematically investigate the effect of GAHT (gender-affirming hormone therapy) and mastectomy on this form of dysphoria. The primary objective of this study is to analyse and investigate the psychological and physical effects of breast development on trans men or genderdiverse individuals. A secondary objective is to determine the extent to which the stress affects the well-being of trans men depending on the coping strategies used (binding vs. taping).
NCT06357130
To date, the transgender population, still poorly characterized, tends to increase. The impact of gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) in this population remains poorly understood, and few data are published on the gynecological repercussions of such therapy. A recent literature review by a French team suggests gynecological follow-up procedures for transgender people.
NCT06807580
This study aims to study the effects of Oral Progesterone in Transgender Women. The primary goal is to study the effect of progesterone on psychological distress and secondarily on sleep quality, breast size, quality of life and gender congruence and cardiovascular risk.
NCT05815810
The investigators hypothesize that the mobile application they developed for transgender and gender diverse individuals (TGGD) will be equivalent or better than traditional speech therapy in improving voice quality. The investigators will measure both how the participants feel about their voices and how their voice actually sounds to see if the app is effective.
NCT06229132
This study will evaluate an intervention's feasibility, acceptability and efficacy potential in a one-arm trial with Romanian transgender and gender diverse (e.g., gender non-binary) (TGD) individuals who report depression or anxiety. The intervention will consist of 16 1-hour sessions delivered by our trained therapists on Zoom. These sessions are based on 6 principles of LGBTQ-affirming CBT, as follows: (1) normalizing mood and anxiety as a common response to LGBTQ related stress; (2) challenging persistent, inflexible LGBQ-related stress-induced cognitions; (3) encouraging assertive behavior and open self-expression to effectively cope with the consequences of LGBTQ-related stress; (4) validating lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBTQ) clients' unique strengths; (5) building authentic relationships as an essential resource for LGBTQ people's mental health; and (6) recognizing intersectional identities as a source of stress and resilience.
NCT07145281
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effects of different routes of estradiol administration on blood clotting in transgender women starting gender-affirming hormone therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does sublingual estradiol reduce free Protein S levels compared to oral estradiol with cyproterone acetate? Does sublingual estradiol accelerate activation of the clotting system, as measured by thrombin generation? Researchers will compare sublingual estradiol to oral estradiol plus cyproterone acetate to see if the way estradiol is taken changes blood clotting risk. Participants will: Take either sublingual estradiol (2 mg daily in divided doses) or oral estradiol (2 mg daily) with cyproterone acetate (10 mg daily) for 6 months Provide blood samples at baseline and after 6 months to measure hormone levels and clotting factors Attend clinic visits for monitoring, including safety checks and routine laboratory tests
NCT06177600
This is a randomized controlled trial to test the effectiveness of an interactive educational app-based digital intervention that provides knowledge and support to transgender and gender-diverse (TGD) young adults ages 18-29 years and their caregivers. The goal of the study is to examine the effects of exposure to the app on TGD young adult mental health outcomes. Participants will be randomized to an Immediate Arm (access to a digital platform, plus usual care) or a Deferred Arm (usual care; access to the digital platform at 6 mo). Usual care consists of access to published resources and community support organizations, if available. The list of resources will include contact information for a suicide prevention hotline. For each Arm, the intervention period will last 6 months, followed by 6 months of observation, during which access to the intervention is maintained. Assessments will be performed at baseline, 3, 6, and 12 months to document changes in mental health outcomes, and the two groups will be compared. The investigators plan to enroll 500 TGD young adults and their caregivers, with at least 50% (250 participants) to identify as Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) and 50% (125 TGD young adults, 125 caregivers) to be young adult-caregiver dyads. Ongoing process reassessments will be performed to maximize effectiveness of the intervention, including focus groups and in-depth interviews with TGD young adults, caregivers, and providers, as well as analysis of data collected through the digital platform and participant surveys. Investigators will account for sociodemographic characteristics such as race and ethnicity, age, gender identity, education status, existing mental health conditions, and history of suicidal ideation or attempt. Data will be analyzed across racial minority groups to ensure that the intervention is effective for all racial minorities; if there are discrepancies in effectiveness, additional mixed methods evaluation will be performed to identify and address potential causes.
NCT05829928
The goal of this study is to learn about fertility preservation in the gender-diverse community. The main objectives it aims to understand are to: 1. Optimize techniques for processing and cryopreserving testicular tissue. 2. Determine presence and number of germ cells (sperm precursors) in the patients' testicular tissue. 3. Develop next generation cell- and tissue-based therapies for preserving fertility and treating infertility.
NCT05187442
Transgender male (TM) is the minority and difficult to reach-up group. Therefore, there is a lack of research on private issues involving TM, such as sex, eroticism, and sexual risk behavior. This study focuses on TM as the research participant, based on Milton Mayeroff's caring theory, to understand the TM's erotic culture and the sexual risks behavior, to evaluate the need for subsequent sexual health care. The research method is a mixed methods research of explanatory design, which recruits participants through purposive sampling and respondent-driven sample (RDS) methods. The first stage is an online questionnaire survey. A total of 321 TMs were recruited. The time of online questionnaire is about 10-15 minutes to get a preliminary understanding of the erotic and sexual risk experience of TM in Taiwan. In the second stage, focus groups and in-depth interviews will be conducted, 2 hours of each group and interview. A total of 29 transgender man and women, and non-binary participants were recruited. The recruitment will be stop when the data are saturated. The analysis of both quantitative and qualitative data can get an in-depth understanding of sex, eroticism, and sexual risk, and violence experiences of the participants. The research results are important for improving the awareness and identification of sexual risk and the assessment of sexual health care needs of TM in health care profession. The results also serve as a reference guide for the development of care needs on sexual health care and anti-violence of transgender people, and for the implement of a gender-friendly environment for medical care.
NCT06093724
The research consists of adding to the usual MtF transgender patient undergoing vaginoplasty care course, static and dynamic perineo-pelvic MRI before, and at 6 and 24 months. The aim is to assess perineo-pelvic static's evolution, based on the appearance of a rectocele.
NCT07075731
This study aims to quantify the rates of cervical cancer screening and endometrial sampling prior to gender-affirming hysterectomy, assess the need for these tests in TGD individuals, and explore patient-centered options for these tests. By assessing the status of testing and correlation with hysterectomy pathology, this study will provide preliminary data on the current state of guideline-concordant care and provide initial evidence for the development of evidence-based guidelines in the future
NCT04128488
In this study, investigators plan to evaluate the cardiometabolic effects of initiating gender-affirming hormone therapy among transgender women with and without HIV. As part of this study, participants will undergo cardiovascular and metabolic phenotyping within 3 months of starting and after 12 months of gender-affirming hormone therapy. Cardiovascular phenotyping will include cardiac MRI/MRS imaging to evaluate cardiac function and structure. Metabolic phenotyping will include oral glucose tolerance testing, abdominal MR imaging to evaluate visceral adiposity, and whole body, lumbar, and hip DEXA imaging to evaluate fat and lean body mass as well as bone mineral density, respectively. Traditional markers of CVD risk as well as immune, hormonal, and coagulation parameters will also be assessed longitudinally.

This study aims to investigate the rates of postoperative nausea and vomiting in transgender patients on hormone therapy compared to cisgender patients undergoing the same procedures (hysterectomy, orchiectomy, augmentation mammoplasty).
NCT06774053
The goal of this observational study is to understand the factors influencing the well-being and health of transgender and gender-diverse (TGD) individuals undergoing gender-affirming therapies in Switzerland. The study population includes TGD individuals aged 16 and older, at various stages of their medical transition, including those who have discontinued or detransitioned. The main question is: What are the key factors influencing the well-being and health outcomes of transgender and gender-diverse individuals undergoing gender-affirming therapies? Researchers will compare health outcomes across different subgroups, such as those at different stages of transition or detransition, to examine the effects of gender-affirming therapies. Participants will: Complete electronic questionnaires assessing gender congruence, quality of life, mental health, and other outcomes. Provide biological samples (e.g., blood, urine, stool, and skin swabs) for laboratory analysis. Undergo clinical evaluations related to endocrinology, fertility, dermatology, and urology as part of their routine follow-up.
