This research study is exploring how gender identity, biological sex, and hormones affect the way people experience pain. Researchers will test pain sensitivity in different ways and examine immune system markers in blood samples from people with different gender identities and hormone statuses. The goal is to understand why pain experiences may differ across these groups.
Very little research has examined how gender identity and hormone levels influence pain perception and the immune system's role in pain. This study aims to fill that gap and help improve how pain is understood and treated for people of all gender identities.

You would visit the research site for study visits where researchers will test how you respond to different types of pain stimuli (like heat or pressure). You'll also provide a blood sample so researchers can examine your immune cells and hormone levels. Additionally, you may complete questionnaires about stress, sleep, mood, and social support. The study involves comparison groups with different gender identities and hormone statuses to see how these factors affect pain responses.
