Summary/Abstract: The publication presents the state of research and conclusions from the most important international publications on the effectiveness and benefits of voice feminization in transgender women. The first articles on voice feminization were published in the United States in the 1970s. The paper presents the results in terms of raising the fundamental frequency, the results of auditive studies with the participation of independent listeners, and the results of qualitative studies proving the positive impact of therapy on the psycho-emotional state of patients.
