Abstract
Transgender youth are young individuals who experience a marked incongruence between their gender assigned at birth (based on their sexual anatomy) and their experienced gender identity. Gender nonconforming youth are those who do not adhere strictly to traditional behaviors or feelings associated with their gender assigned at birth. We use the term cisgender here to describe those individuals whose gender assigned at birth matches their experienced gender identity. Gender minority youth have high rates of psychiatric morbidities including depression, anxiety, and alarming rates of suicidality. Over the past few years, these patients are increasingly coming to the attention of mental health providers. Although the literature has studied these patients’ morbidities in detail, there have been few opportunities to hear from the patients themselves. In this Clinical Perspective, we asked a focus group of transgender and gender nonconforming youth to identify the top 10 things that they would want their doctors to know, in their own words.
