DIY transgender hormone therapy is a phenomenon where transgender people obtain and self-administer transgender hormone therapy as part of their gender transition without the guidance of a licensed medical provider. This may be caused by various problems accessing healthcare which transgender people face. The prevalence of DIY hormone therapy in the trans community varies between studies, from 11%^[1] to 79%.^[2]
