Endometrial cancer and endometrial changes in transgender men: Insights from Japanese individuals on testosterone. (English)
1 reference
Endometrial changes in Japanese transgender men (TGM) on testosterone use remain elucidated. (English)
1 reference
This study aims to present TGM with endometrial cancer and insights from a literature review of similar cases. (English)
1 reference
Furthermore, we investigated the correlation between endometrial cancer and severe obesity in TGM who underwent gender-affirming surgery. (English)

Between July 2020 and April 2023, two groups were assessed: 2 TGM with endometrial cancer and 43 TGM without cancer who underwent gender-affirming surgery. (English)
1 reference
A literature review for TGM with endometrial cancer was conducted. (English)
1 reference
Clinical data were retrospectively collected, and histopathological evaluation of female genital organs was performed. (English)
1 reference
Two TGM with endometrial cancer and an additional four similar cases were identified through a literature search. (English)

These TGM had severe obesity (body mass index [BMI] ≥30 kg/m<sup>2</sup>) and long-term testosterone use, indicating a possible link between endometrial cancer and these factors. (English)

Subsequently, we investigated the 43 TGM without cancer. (English)
1 reference
We revealed 30% with obesity (BMI ≥25), only three cases of severe obesity (BMI ≥30), and a significant correlation between testosterone use duration and BMI in TGM without cancer. (English)
1 reference
Histological examination revealed focal proliferative endometrium in 51% of cases and polycystic ovarian changes in 77%. (English)
1 reference
Our observations suggest a potential link between severe obesity, prolonged testosterone use, and endometrial cancer in transgender men. (English)
1 reference
Histological changes in the female genital tract highlighted frequent focal proliferative endometrium, even under testosterone therapy. (English)
1 reference
Further research should focus on larger, multi-institutional studies to confirm these findings and establish endometrial cancer screening for Japanese TGM. (English)
