Growing evidence suggests that transgender individuals face a significant health disparity and are particularly vulnerable to sleep disorders. We present two patients who developed irregular sleep-wake rhythm disorder after gender reassignment and hormone replacement therapy. The growing interest in transgender health warrants further evaluation of the effects and frequency of all sleep disorders in this population. Efforts to address sleep disorders should consider assessing sleep disturbance in terms of sleep/wake patterns and schedules.

越来越多的证据表明,跨性别者面临着显著的健康差距,特别容易受到睡眠障碍的影响。我们介绍了两名在性别重置和激素替代疗法后出现不规则睡眠-觉醒节律障碍的患者。对跨性别者健康的日益关注需要进一步评估该人群中所有睡眠障碍的影响和频率。解决睡眠障碍的努力应考虑根据睡眠/觉醒模式和时间表评估睡眠障碍。
