Abstract Objectives Transgender people may face serious challenges with their sexual experiences such as sexual behavior (ie the type and frequency of sexual activity) and sexual experience (eg their sexual pleasure) at various stages of the diagnosis and treatment process. The aim of the study was to assess sexual behavior, to assess the quality of sexual life at various stages of the process of diagnosis and treatment of transgender people. Methods 104 transgender people who are sexually active were qualified for the study. The study was conducted in two medical centers. The research tool used in the study was the original questionnaire and the Life Satisfaction Scale (SWLS), the Sexual Satisfaction Questionnaire (KSS). Results The author's study also showed that both transgender women and transgender men after SRS achieve statistically higher results on the KSS scale compared to people before surgical gender reassignment. Moreover, it was found that trans people who accept their genitals have statistically higher scores of sexual satisfaction. There was no correlation between SRS and the stage of the diagnosis and treatment process and the act of masturbation. Additionally, it was indicated that transsexual people who experienced homosexual intercourse before legal gender reassignment had a higher sexual satisfaction score. Conclusions Transgender women are characterized by a higher sense of life satisfaction than transgender men at every stage of the diagnosis and treatment process. Transgender men are characterized by a higher assessment of sexual satisfaction during hormone treatment after legal gender correction in relation to transgender women. Surgical sex reassignment operations determine the assessment of sexual satisfaction among transgender people. Conflicts of Interest No Conflicts of Interest.
