Cervical and Endometrial Cancer Screening in Transgender and Gender Diverse Individuals

This study is looking at how often transgender and gender diverse (TGD) individuals get screened for cervical cancer and have endometrial sampling (a procedure to check the lining of the uterus) before a gender-affirming hysterectomy (surgery to remove the uterus). Researchers want to understand if these tests are needed and explore better ways to offer them. The study is observational, meaning there are no interventions or treatments given. It aims to enroll 40 participants who are 18 years or older, can speak English, and are TGD individuals who have had or plan to have a hysterectomy. The main goals are to measure screening rates and see if HPV self-testing (a way to check for human papillomavirus, which can cause cervical cancer) changes these rates over 36 months.
