Resumen

Objetivo: Verificar los factores asociados a la calidad de vida en personas transexuales descritos en la literatura especializada. Metodología: Estudio de revisión integradora, consultada en la plataforma de la Biblioteca Virtual en Salud, con búsqueda considerando todo el acervo, a partir de los descriptores "Calidad de Vida", "Transexual" e "Identidad de Género", en combinación con palabras clave y operadores booleanos AND y O. Se consideraron artículos publicados entre 2011 y 2021. Resultados: Se encontraron 187 artículos a partir de las palabras clave, 161 fueron eliminados considerando los criterios de inclusión, 18 artículos fueron elegibles. La mayoría de los estudios se desarrollaron en los EE. UU. en 2018, se tomaron de Medline y fueron estudios observacionales transversales de una población trans masculina y femenina. De los estudios evaluados, el 66,6% realizó intervención quirúrgica u hormonal en su muestra, y atribuyen esta intervención como un factor asociado a la mejora de la calidad de vida. Otros estudios han encontrado que las diferentes identidades de género y orientación sexual, así como la presencia de transexualidad, son factores importantes para una peor o mejor calidad de vida. Conclusión: Es posible distinguir la importancia del ajuste físico por vía quirúrgica u hormonal en la calidad de vida de los adultos transexuales. Sin embargo, existen diferencias en la calidad de vida y percepción corporal entre los evaluados con diferente identidad de género y orientación sexual. Había una falta de herramientas de evaluación de la calidad de vida dirigidas a las personas transgénero.
