A new study published in the Oxford Journal of Sexual Medicine has found that transgender individuals who undergo “gender-affirming surgery” face a significantly higher risk of mental health challenges, including depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, and substance use disorder.
The study, titled “Examining Gender-Specific Mental Health Risks After Gender-Affirming Surgery: A National Database Study,” analysed data from 107,583 U.S. patients with gender dysphoria between 2014 and 2024. Researchers examined mental health outcomes based on gender and surgical status using the TriNetX database, a nationwide clinical data network.
The study found that individuals who had undergone sex-change surgery exhibited increased rates of mental health disorders compared to those who had not.
Males who underwent surgery were over twice as likely to experience depression (25.4% vs. 11.5%, RR 2.203) and nearly five times more likely to suffer from anxiety (12.8% vs. 2.6%, RR 4.882). Females with surgery also showed elevated risks, with higher rates of depression (22.9% vs. 14.6%, RR 1.563) and anxiety (10.5% vs. 7.1%, RR 1.478).
“Feminising individuals” were particularly vulnerable, demonstrating significantly increased risks for depression (RR 1.783) and substance use disorder (RR 1.284).
The findings highlight the critical need for post-surgical mental health care.
Researchers emphasise that gender-sensitive psychological support must be integrated into post-surgical care to help mitigate the risks of distress and mental health deterioration.
“These results underscore the necessity for a comprehensive, long-term mental health strategy tailored to transgender individuals post-surgery,” the study states.
The research utilised verified clinical diagnoses from ICD-10 codes, reducing biases commonly associated with self-reported mental health surveys. However, limitations include an inability to account for external factors such as social support systems, which may play a crucial role in post-surgical mental health outcomes.

Bull manure!
These individuals are bat-sh*t crazy to begin with. Massacring their bodies is an outlet for their insanity.
We need mental asylums back.
Or Sparta!
And the medical henchmen should be prosecuted.
According to MY research, mental illness is already present LONG before the surgery occurs.
I’m no expert, but shouldn’t counciling have taken place to avoid the surgery?
WOW, that’s brilliant! Somebody nominate me for the Noble!
What is totally unnatural is the concept of body modification and it is promoted by all the big shiny media. Gender transitions make someone or something a great deal of money.
I believe the destruction of family for money has played a critical part in the breakdown of society and the well-being of people. I am male and in my 60’s but i still have memories of wanting to to fit in and be liked. There were some who were bullies, some who were genuine. Some who were not so much.
If you were not pretty or handsome , gendar change wasn’t considered. However if you were poorer , didnt look as good, wore clothing that wasn’t the same or had learning difficulties you were sidlined . Wanting to be like others and with the help of twisted teachers , counsellors who encourage gendar change have completely overstepped the boundaries. Arguably criminal to cause mutilation of body and reproductive organs.
Single parent families struggle way more than couples. Less money , less time, lower living standards, less holidays, not so good places to live or birthdays and Christmas. Mothers who spend their time and money to hook another guy. Rooting counless men from dating sites until they are no longer attractive and wanted. Fathers who have not seen their kids in years because joint custody means less money. The splitting of family assets and the home. All leading to depression, less attention , suicidal thoughts and hard futures. This nation openly accepts these so called professionals as right and holy and not the evil twisted fucks they really are.
These people try and pedal their ideology as inclusive and welbeing for all to disguise their true destructive and criminal behaviour. Such crimes against children and young people should receive lifetime imprisonment with an option to be put to sleep. Ide be happy to administer the injection myself.
