Smoking cessation among gender minority populations, cis-women, and cis-men

Little is known about smoking cessation among gender minority populations compared to cis-gender individuals (whose gender matches their sex assigned at birth). Researchers examined differences between smokers from gender minority populations, cis-women, and cis-men in heaviness of smoking, quit intentions, use of cessation assistance, quit attempts (ever tried and number), and triggers for thinking about quitting. The findings were recently published in Nicotine & Tobacco Research.
