Q

What should the NP take into consideration regarding health risks for LGBTQ patients when compared to non-LGBTQ patients?

A

Dosage amounts of estrogen in hormone therapy and oral contraceptives vary between the two. The amount and type of estrogen available in hormone therapy and oral contraceptives are not the same. Substance abuse is higher in the LGBTQ population. Further studies are needed to understand the rates of PCOS in transgender men. Puberty significantly alters the hormone options for transgender children (Schuiling & Likis; Module 5.6).
