Transgender males are most likely to attempt suicide
Gender identity strongly influences the likelihood a teen will attempt suicide, a new study finds.
Nearly 14 percent of teens who participated in a survey reported trying to kill themselves, with transgender teens reporting the highest rates of suicide attempts. Among female to male teens, the language the study uses for transgender male teens, more than half (50.8 percent) said they'd tried to take their lives, according to the study, published Tuesday in the journal Pediatrics.
