I am looking for research aimed at determining links, if any, between Gender Variance and ADD/ADHD in general, and in MTF (male to female) transsexuals, in particular. Thank you,
I just went to a mental health workshop regarding transsexuals and transgender and the effects of ADHD/ADD at the Philadelphia Trans-Health Conference. If you give me some time I'll sort through my notes and ask the facilitator if she has the speakers information from the conference. If and when I get the information and sources I'll pass them directly on to you.
