Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the quality of life (QOL) of transgender (trans) people in Iran. In this cross-sectional study, participants were included in the study using the snowball sampling technique. Two hundred thirty-five transgender people from different provinces of Iran were identified and agreed to participate in the study. To measure the QOL of these individuals, we used the short form of the QOL SF-36 questionnaire, which was completed as self-administered. In this study, the highest and lowest mean scores of trans individuals’ QOL belong to the physical functioning (88.59 ± 13.81) and bodily pain (30.78 ± 25.68) domains, respectively. Moreover, the mean scores of mental health, emotional role, vitality, general health, and bodily pain domains were less than 50. Reassignment surgery, vocation, and age were significantly associated with quality of life score (P < 0.05). Iranian transgender individuals lack appropriate QOL. It seems that gender reassignment surgery and job creation for these individuals improve their QOL.
