Briefings
A study by researchers from the Southeastern Medical Center at the University of Texas and other institutions surveyed 376 transgender individuals to assess their feelings about gender-affirming therapy. The findings indicate that a significant majority of participants did not regret their treatment decisions years later, suggesting long-term satisfaction among the surveyed cohort.
Key points
- 376 transgender individuals were surveyed by researchers from the Southeastern Medical Center at the University of Texas and other institutions.
- The majority of participants did not regret their treatment decisions years after receiving therapy.
Context
This research provides insight into the long-term outcomes of gender-affirming care for transgender people, addressing a gap in understanding whether therapy leads to regret or sustained well-being over time.
Limitations
The study covers only 376 individuals, limiting generalizability. Results are based on self-reported data and may not reflect the full population. No follow-up data beyond the initial survey period is available.
