Although women generally live longer than men, particularly during puberty or menopause they face greater risks after transplant. Men may also experience hormone changes that affect recovery and have been shown to benefit from hormone therapy. Despite this, sexual health and hormones are rarely considered in transplant care, and patients of different ages, ancestries and genders are usually treated the same.<\/p>\n<p>Our team will use information from a large group of kidney transplant patients in British Columbia, along with stored blood samples. We will measure hormones in these samples and link them to each person\u2019s medical history. Thus, we hope to understand how hormone levels influence recovery, long\u2011term kidney health, and transplant success.<\/p>\n<p>This project supports the mission of the CDTRP by addressing a hidden barrier to long\u2011lasting transplant success: the lack of hormone\u2011 and life\u2011stage-specific information to guide care. If we can identify patients who are at higher risk because of their hormone patterns, transplant teams can monitor them more closely, and adjust treatments earlier. This work may also open the door to new treatments, including hormone\u2011based therapies, and focuses on providing information about sexual health and hormones to patients and doctors.<\/p>\n<p>By improving how we understand and manage life stage and hormone\u2011related risks, this project aims to help more Canadians enjoy long, healthy lives after transplant and move us closer to the goal of making transplantation a lasting and sustainable cure.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-separator fusion-full-width-sep\" style=\"align-self: center;margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;margin-top:30px;margin-bottom:30px;width:100%;\"><div class=\"fusion-separator-border sep-double sep-solid\" style=\"--awb-height:20px;--awb-amount:20px;border-color:#e0dede;border-top-width:1px;border-bottom-width:1px;\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-4\"><h5 class=\"fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"text-align: center;\" data-fontsize=\"20\" data-lineheight=\"30px\"><strong><a class=\"ProsemirrorEditor-link\" href=\"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/fr\/resultats-du-concours-2026-de-subventions-pour-linnovation-en-recherche-du-prdtc-7-nouveaux-projets-finances\/\">Consultez tous les gagnants du Concours 2026 de subventions \u00e0 la recherche et l\u2019innovation du PRDTC.<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5 class=\"fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"text-align: center;\" data-fontsize=\"20\" data-lineheight=\"30px\"><strong><a class=\"ProsemirrorEditor-link\" href=\"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/fr\/concours-innovation-prdtc-laureats\/\">Voyez les anciens laur\u00e9ats des subventions \u00e0 l\u2019innovation du PRDTC ici.<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":34701,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,75],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-34705","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-general","category-featured"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34705","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=34705"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34705\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":34707,"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34705\/revisions\/34707"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/34701"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34705"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=34705"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=34705"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
