The study, published in the official journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics, represents one of the first-ever reports to track the experiences of youth who socially transitioned in early childhood.
“A common concern is that retransitions will be traumatic or difficult for children.

The Trans Youth Project, housed at the Human Diversity Lab, enrolled children from across the U.S. and Canada from 2013 to 2017 with plans to follow them for 20 years. In order to be included in the project, children had to be between the ages of 3 and 12 and had to have made a “complete” social transition, including changing their pronouns to those that differed from the ones used at their birth.
