Addressing unmet health needs among Chinese transgender individuals

摘要

Chinese transgender individuals encounter significant barriers to accessing health care. In this letter we summarise the main health issues among Chinese transgender individuals and propose several recommendations to address these challenges. These recommendations include, but are not limited to, improving access to HIV prevention services, mental health services, and access to sex reassignment surgery and gender-affirming hormone therapy services. We anticipate that these measures will promote physical and mental health for transgender individuals in China.
