Research Updates
Cyproterone acetate or spironolactone in lowering testosterone concentrations for transgender individuals receiving oestradiol therapy.
A comparison between the ability of cyproterone acetate and spironolactone to lower testosterone levels. Although it shows that cyproterone has a greater effect towards lowering testosterone levels, it ironically notes this metric isn't very meaningful since spironolactone is only an antagonist and does not inhibit steroidogenesis.
The Papers page is a thorough compendium of up-to-date trans-specific research with a high quality of evidence, as well as guides on ways to access them or find more.
Featured Articles
The Books by trans authors page is a collection of works of both fiction and non-fiction authored by gender diverse individuals outside of the cis binary, it can be reorganized by clicking on the top panels.
Useful library tools
The following tools may be helpful for developing lists of your favourite books, or finding copies to purchase online or borrow from your local libraries. Feel free to send suggestions to Umbra
- Worldcat is the largest online library catalogue in the world, useful for both finding available copies of books on this list at local libraries worldwide, and collecting cataloguing data (such as authorship, edition, available versions in other languages ISBN, ISSN, etc). Simply search by ISBN or title to find a detailed listing including branches in your area.
- Goodreads is a very useful tool for organizing reading lists (called shelves), gathering reviews, finding books organized by genre, and connect with book selling and library sites such as Amazon and Worldcat.
- Library Extension (Chrome) an extension that connects to the major online book vendors as well as Goodreads and provides you with how many copies are available within your local library branches.
