We performed a cross-sectional analysis of the prevalence psychiatric diagnoses among transgender patients in clinical care using an all-payer electronic health record database. Of 10,270 identified, 58% (n=5940) had at least one diagnosis compared with 13.6% (n=7,311,780) control patient population (p<0.0005). Transgender statistically significant increase for all queried, major depressive disorder and generalized anxiety being most common (31% 12%, respectively). Utilizing database,...
