Adolescent and caregiver perspectives on receiving gender-affirming care in primary care.
The purpose of this study was to examine Transgender and gender-diverse (TGD) adolescents' and caregivers' experiences and perspectives about gender-affirming care delivery in pediatric primary care. Semi-structured, individual, virtual interviews were administered to TGD adolescents aged 14 to 17 and caregivers of TGD adolescents currently receiving gender-affirming medical care. A total of 15 adolescents and 18 caregivers (33 total participants) completed interviews. Adolescent participants primarily identified as transmasculine or trans male (73%), and caregiver participants were primarily mothers (83.3%). The study identified four themes, which included 1) barriers, such as microaggressions and poor psychosocial support, 2) benefits, such as existing trusted relationships with primary care providers (PCPs) and convenience, 3) improvement strategies, such as training and interdisciplinary collaboration, and 4) opportunities for integrating primary care and specialty gender-affirming care.
