OBJECTIVE
To compare social characteristics, risk behaviors, and sexually transmitted infections among travestis and transsexual women.
METHODOLOGY
A cross-sectional study was carried out in three cities in Goiás, Central Brazil. Trans women were interviewed on sociodemographic characteristics, discrimination, prejudice, sexual behavior, illicit drugs, and previous testing for HIV and syphilis between April 2018 and August 2019.
RESULTS
A total of 166 travestis and 249 transsexual women were investigated. Although sexual, physical, and verbal violence were common to both groups, sexual behavior, use of illicit drugs, prison, and previous positive HIV and syphilis testing were more frequent among travestis than in transsexual women.
CONCLUSION
The present findings confirm that Brazilian travestis are at greater risk for sexually transmitted infections (STI), indicating that health services should take this imbalance into account in terms of health intervention proportions.
目的
比较易装癖者和跨性别女性的社会特征、风险行为和性传播感染。
方法
在巴西中部戈亚斯州的三个城市进行了一项横断面研究。2018 年 4 月至 2019 年 8 月期间，对跨性别女性进行了社会人口特征、歧视、偏见、性行为、非法药物和之前的艾滋病毒和梅毒检测方面的访谈。
结果
共调查了 166 名易装癖者和 249 名跨性别女性。尽管两组都普遍存在性、身体和言语暴力，但易装癖者的性行为、使用非法药物、入狱和之前艾滋病毒和梅毒检测呈阳性的情况比跨性别女性更为常见。
结论
本研究结果证实，巴西易装癖者感染性传播感染（STI）的风险更高，这表明卫生服务机构应在卫生干预比例方面考虑到这种不平衡。
