Gynaecological Care for Transgender People in France in 2024. (GyneTrans)

January 13, 2026 updated by: University Hospital, Bordeaux
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.

Detailed Description

The hypothesis of this study is that transgender population in France does not have appropriate gynecological care, and the study would like to find out, directly from the people concerned, the current state of gynecological care for transgender people in France. To do this, ths study plan to send out a questionnaire to transgender people (via healthcare networks and also transgender associations) to ask them about their actual gynecological care and their knowledge of recommended gynecological care.

The aim is to set up a descriptive, declarative study based on a questionnaire created specifically for this work.

This project will use a questionnaire for transwomen people and another one for transmen people. Transgender people will be approached via Trans associations and healthcare networks. An online link to the questionnaire will be sent to trans associations and healthcare networks for distribution to the target population thanks to a flyer.
