Resumo

Em comparação com indivíduos cisgêneros, pessoas transgêneros apresentam altos indicadores de suicídio. Nesse sentido, o presente estudo teve como escopo analisar os fatores protetivos e de riscos imbricados no tocante ao fenômeno do suicídio. Com base em uma revisão de escopo da literatura, levantaram-se dados publicados nos últimos cinco anos, nas seguintes bases de dados: Medline, Lilacs e PubMed. Os descritores utilizados foram: transgender persons e suicide. Dos 360 estudos encontrados, 22 atenderam aos critérios de inclusão e exclusão. Os resultados evidenciaram que o suicídio entre a população trans relaciona-se a estressores sociais ligados à discriminação, preconceito, pouca aceitação familiar, escassas oportunidades de trabalho, sendo os principais fatores explicativos. Assim como, denota-se que depressão e abuso de substâncias possuem correlação com o comportamento suicida e o suicídio. Dessa forma, sugere-se a realização de pesquisas nacionais e internacionais, com foco em políticas públicas que proporcionem melhor qualidade de vida às pessoas trans.
