Abstract Introduction Gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) is widely used to help transgender individuals align physical traits with gender identity, yet concerns remain regarding its cardiovascular safety. Previous reviews have produced conflicting findings, often constrained by small sample sizes, short follow-up, and heterogeneous hormone regimens. This umbrella review synthesizes current meta-analytic evidence on cardiovascular outcomes of GAHT.
