Brief Report: Role of Gender-Affirming Hormonal Care in HIV Care Continuum Outcomes When Comparing Transgender Women With Cisgender Sexual Minority Men

Conclusions: In the context of HIV, socioeconomic factors, comorbidities, and gender-affirming care distinguish transwomen from cis-SMM. Compared with cis-SMM, transwomen who were prescribed estrogen had better HIV care continuum outcomes; transwomen not prescribed estrogen had worse outcomes. These differences should be accounted for in HIV-related research.
