Traditional masculine norms (e.g.,\u00a0self\u2010reliance, dominance, stoicism) and cancer\u2010related masculine threat were consistently associated with poorer mental health, lower HRQoL, and greater symptom burden. In contrast, masculine self\u2010esteem, a positive appraisal of one's masculinity post\u2010cancer, was linked to better psychosocial outcomes and HRQoL across samples. Most studies were cross\u2010sectional and focused on prostate cancer survivors, often lacking demographic diversity.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Masculinity\u2010related constructs are meaningfully associated with cancer survivorship outcomes.
