There is no long term research about the health effects of hormones or other medication that we take. When we take hormones or testosterone blockers they are “off label” meaning that they were never tested for what we use them for, therefore, the long term effects are not known.
So I pass along this survey…
Transgender and gender nonconforming individuals (age 14-30) needed for health research!Even though this study is not about the effects of drugs, I think it will give new insight in to the long term outcomes of early transition.

Contribute to transgender and gender nonconforming health research by completing an online survey.
The online survey is designed to capture a range of experiences associated with growing up as transgender or gender nonconforming. We plan to use this information to help other researchers, clinicians, and doctors become better informed of the developmental needs of transgender and gender nonconforming youth and young adults.
The survey will take approximately 20-30 minutes to complete. The survey will ask very sensitive questions, including but not limited to, gender and sexuality.
Participants who complete the survey will be offered the chance to enter a raffle for one of ten $50 Amazon gift cards (odds of winning are approximately 1 in 75).
Please consider taking the survey today and please share with others you know who are transgender or gender nonconforming and age 14 to 30!
