Coupled with this interest is a renewed pursuit of research into the possible biological origins of transgender identity. In this review, we critically examine the biological literature which explores the etiology of transgender identity, including endocrinological, behavioral, genetic, and neuroimaging studies, with the goal of identifying key trends in this literature, limitations, critical gaps, and future directions. \u0000 Methods:\u0000 We searched the Pubmed database for peer reviewed original experimental research conducted since 1990, using a combination of six transgender identity-related search terms and 18 topic search terms. \u0000 Results:\u0000 A total of 102 articles across the disciplines of endocrinology, genetics, cognitive function, and neuroanatomy met our review criteria. Most studies were conducted at gender identity clinics. Several approaches yielded compelling results, but where replication has been attempted, results have varied. We identified several issues in experimental design and/or interpretation that might account for this inconsistency. \u0000 Conclusion:\u0000 A number of research studies have investigated biological factors that could potentially contribute to transgender identity, but results often contradict each other. Interpretation of etiological studies of transgender identity can be misunderstood and/or misused by media, politicians, and care providers, placing transgender people at risk. We question the utility of etiological studies in clinical care, given that transgender identity is not pathological. When etiological studies are undertaken, we recommend new, inclusive designs for a rigorous and compassionate approach to scientific practice in the service of transgender communities and the providers who serve them.","PeriodicalId":46675,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Gay & Lesbian Mental Health","volume":"12 1","pages":"254 - 283"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74896581","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When I began puberty in the mid-1990s, I didn’t have the language to describe my internal experience. The internet was still in its infancy and my vocabulary didn’t include words like non-binary or genderqueer. Among my adolescent peers, “gay” was a slur, and to be openly homosexual or transgender was to be an outcast. Add to that gender dysphoria magnified by a changing body, and you can begin to imagine my experience. At the onset of puberty, my concept of being transgender was squarely trapped in the gender binary. A transgender person was someone who transitioned from one gender to the other, not someone like me who didn’t strongly identify with either gender. This made the physical changes I experienced very distressing. I began growing hair where I didn’t want it and experiencing other physical changes that did not align with my gender identity. This resulted in failing grades, missed classes, and clinical levels of depression. My desire to postpone puberty led me to a physician on the internet who agreed to prescribe me progesterone, which I paid for by working a weekend job. This was the first time since puberty began that I gained any sense of internal control over the physical and emotional changes I was experiencing. My grades and mood improved, and I began to see a future for myself beyond my dysphoria. And yet, I never told my parents, teachers, or friends about my dysphoria or that I was on hormones. It was just not socially accepted. I continued with this treatment for about a year and even discussed surgical options with my provider. Ultimately, I stopped hormone blockers for health concerns, and despite developing the secondary sexual characteristics of a man, I began experimenting with other forms of gender expression such as hairstyle and dress that improved my dysphoria. It wasn’t until college I found the courage to share my sexuality and gender https://doi.org/10.1080/19359705.2022.2117753","PeriodicalId":46675,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Gay & Lesbian Mental Health","volume":"1 1","pages":"338 - 340"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89553711","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
