Summary

This study examines how often transgender and gender-diverse individuals receive cervical and endometrial cancer screening before undergoing gender-affirming hysterectomy. Researchers will review medical records and explore whether offering HPV self-testing could increase screening rates. The goal is to gather data that could lead to better, more inclusive screening guidelines for this population.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help create evidence-based cancer screening guidelines tailored to transgender and gender-diverse individuals.
What could go wrong
This is a small, observational study at a single center, so findings may not apply broadly. It does not test a new treatment or intervention.
