Methods: an exhaustive review of 210 academic articles from different indexed scientific databases, such as Scopus, Dialnet, Latindex, EBSCO, CINAHL, Scielo, Medline, BVS, DOAJ, IPIndexing Portal, Cuiden Citation, Web of Science, RED Edit, REHIC, RevEnf, Periódica, among others, was carried out; 30 met the selection standards, in addition a matrix made in Excel was used to classify the information, and an inductive analytical review of the data was completed. Results: obstacles were encountered in treating individuals regarding gender identity, including insufficient professional expertise, bias, and typical gender norms within health care facilities. In contrast, successful tactics included inclusive education, adherence to specific standards, and use of a social identifier, together fostering safety and amplifying the perceived quality of care.
