Research Updates
Testosterone levels achieved by medically treated transgender women in a United States endocrinology clinic.
This study assessed the anonymous medical records of 98 trans women taking spironolactone as part of their feminizing regimen, and assessed how much their testosterone levels dropped over time. * Please note that spironolactone is not an anti-gonadotropin and thus does not aim to suppress testosterone production, instead it is an androgen receptor antagonist and instead prevents androgens from activating the receptor. This is a common misconception that can lead to fairly useless data when testing for testosterone levels.
The Transgender medical 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.
The Ehlers-Danlos and hypermobility papers page is a another library with similar standards, yet as it relates to EDS and it's related conditions.
Featured Articles
The Ehlers-Danlos and hypermobility papers library is curated by Umbra- a freelance research librarian, who has a ko-fi people can donate to if you wish to support and continue the existence of this resource - please give what you can!
