Aggression changes during masculinizing and feminizing gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) – A prospective clinical study
There was no GAHT-induced increased aggression in transmasculine persons. Total aggression scores decreased after one year across GAHT-types. Transgender aggression scores were significantly lower than cisgender men, indicating no risk of pathological aggression in the transgender population. Limitations included participant numbers and self-report measures.
