During the COVID-19 outbreak, it was necessary to remodel the healthcare offer for all categories of subjects in order to minimize unnecessary movements of people while maintaining an adequate level of assistance. This is also true for transgender people, who are periodically requested to come into the clinic for hormonal therapy monitoring and continuation. In our center telemedicine programs dedicated to users have been activated for the remote management of hormone therapy.
We use a web-based survey to assess the impact of COVID-19 outbreak on trans-population health and to assess the specific needs of this population in this particular moment.
Use of a dedicated web-based anonymous questionnaire to assess health needs of trans-population during COVID-19 outbreak and to assess specific risk factors for COVID-19 infection.
