Full description Increasing numbers of transgender adolescents are seeking specialist gender-affirming medical care. One of the cornerstones of this care is use of hormonal interventions to suppress puberty. While the mental health benefits of these hormonal interventions are evident, there remain critical knowledge gaps that undermine their safe and effective use. This research program will generate new knowledge to fill these gaps, and translate this information into more evidence-based clinical practice.
