Study: Health surveys, studies exclude trans people and gender-diverse communities, impacting health care umich PNASNews
from 487,600 individuals in the United Kingdom. The database collects information about each participant's chromosomal sex as well as their self-reported sex, a proxy the study used for an individual's current gender.
For gender-diverse individuals interacting with health care systems, limited or poorly structured measures regarding sex and gender can pose significant challenges in their ability to access services. Such information is critical to the clinical decision-making for establishing or continuing care, such as when to provide services that are typically considered based on an individual's sex .
Duchowny says that if researchers are serious about inclusive research that focuses on gender-diverse communities, they must measure both sex and gender. The researchers say clinical and health researchers should employ more robust methodologies that identify both the gender and sex of participants to improve the health and well-being of transgender, intersex and nonbinary people. One simple solution would be to employ what's called a two-step method, which asks participants their current gender as well as their sex assigned at birth.
