Globally, TMSW experience a higher prevalence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and sexually transmitted infections than the general population or other sex workers, suggesting the existence of unique challenges for this group when accessing healthcare. A systematic database search identified 22 qualitative papers addressing barriers to accessing sexual healthcare services for TMSW. These papers were critically evaluated for adherence to best practice standards for qualitative research and research with sex workers. A coding process identified five themes. Stigma was the predominant barrier, and was divided into stigma related to sexuality, gender identity, HIV status, sex worker status, and internalised stigma. Other barriers were confidentiality concerns, sexual health literacy, fatalism, and structural barriers. Each of these themes were informed by the wider context of stigma. The literature presents a complex syndemic of social disadvantage and exclusion acting to produce and reinforce health disparities related to sexual health and access to screening and treatment for TMSW. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research systematic review tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
