(THE NATIONAL PULSE) – Transgender surgery, also known as “gender-affirming surgery,” does not reduce the demand for mental health services, according to a study conducted by the American Journal of Psychiatry (AJP).
The study surveyed the effectiveness of gender-affirming hormone treatment and gender-affirming surgery on prescriptions for antidepressants and anti-anxiety medication, healthcare visits for mood and anxiety disorders, and post-suicide attempt hospitalizations among the Swedish population.
The study, following the AJP’s redaction, concluded that transgender surgery offers no improvement of one’s mental health and even suggested that there was “an increase in treatment for anxiety after surgery.”
