Abstract summarized · Quality not appraised
Studied
A cross-sectional survey asked prescribers and voice clinicians about suspected testosterone-related voice changes in cisgender women.
Who / model
Respondents were 72 medical providers and 87 voice clinicians, not a cohort of treated patients. Fifty-five providers prescribed testosterone to cisgender women.
Studied dose & schedule
Dose and schedule have not yet been extracted for this summary.
Found
Among voice clinicians, 71% of laryngologists and 83% of speech-language pathologists reported treating suspected cases. Deeper pitch and reduced vocal range were common complaints. Counselling and management varied.
Limits
Standardized diagnostic criteria were absent, and clinicians often relied on clinical judgement and the timing of symptoms.
