A Retrospective Cohort Study of Transgender Adolescents' Gender-Affirming Hormone Discontinuation (6 month follow up)
-In the abstract they write that '5 (0.5%) individuals did so because they reidentified with the gender associated with their sex assigned at birth. This represents less than 1 percent of the cohort.'In the actual text you find this:
”Out of 1,224 individuals who had started GAH at the time that data were abstracted for this study, 1,050 had been on GAH for a minimum of 6 months. This group constituted the study population. Of those 1,050, 973 (93%) had been on GAH continuously as of last contact, although 210 had not been heard from for >12 months with no documented information that they had transferred care.”
-That is 17.1% lost to follow up
