ABSTRACT
The prevalence of type 1 diabetes mellitus among transgender and gender diverse (TGD) youth is nearly five times higher than in the general pediatric population (9.9 per 1000 people vs. 1.93 per 1000 people). We hypothesize that minority stress experienced by TGD youth may lead to a higher prevalence of diabetes.
