Abstract summarizedQuality not appraised
What was studied
A cross-sectional survey asked prescribers and voice clinicians about suspected testosterone-related voice changes in cisgender women.
Who / model studied
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.
What the study 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.
Limitations & context
Standardized diagnostic criteria were absent, and clinicians often relied on clinical judgement and the timing of symptoms.
