A study using UK data has found that transgender people have mortality rates that are 34 - 75% higher than cisgender people. The research found they were at higher risk of deaths from external causes such as suicides, homicides, and accidental poisonings, as well as deaths from endocrine disorders, and other ill-defined and unspecified causes. The researchers say the findings highlight the need to develop interventions to prevent suicide, homicide, and accidental poisonings to reduce mortality for transgender individuals.
