research Scalp hair parameter changes in transgender individuals commencing gender-affirming hormone therapy: A 24-week prospective observational study
This study investigated the effects of gender-affirming hormone therapy on scalp hair parameters and quality of life in transgender individuals over 24 weeks, involving 15 participants on masculinizing hormone therapy (MHT) and 19 on feminizing hormone therapy (FHT).
