INTRODUCTION

In France, trans people can benefit from the coverage of care related to their trans-identity in Long Term Affection (Affection Longue Durée ALD) under the code F64.

PURPOSE OF RESEARCH: The aim of this article is to estimate the prevalence and the incidence of trans people in transition from the medical and administrative reimbursement databases in France.

RESULTS

In 2020, 8952 persons were in ALD F64. The prevalence was 1.50/100 000 in 2013 and 14.09/100 000 in 2020 all ages combined. Among 0-17 year olds, the increase of prevalence was the greatest (36.75-fold increase). The 18-35 year olds were the largest numbers (459 in 2013 vs 6148 in 2020) with a 12.69 fold increase in prevalence. The incidence has increased by a factor of 8. The incidence of the 0-17 year olds has increased by a factor of 29.45 in 6 years, those of the 18-35 year olds by a factor of 10.63. Overall, more MtF than FtM are observed except in minors and young adults.

CONCLUSIONS

There is an overall increase of people with ALD F64 but more marked in minors and young adults. The MtF/FtM ratio is still higher than 1 but tends to be closer to it. It is reversed in minors and young adults.
