The persistent release of steroid estrogens into various ecosystems poses a significant environmental threat due to their high biological activity even at ultra-trace exposure levels. Despite extensive ongoing research, capturing these compounds remains technically challenging because of their extremely low concentrations and the inherent complexities of environmental and biological matrices. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have emerged as premier sorbent candidates, offering well-ordered porosity, precise structural control, and the feasibility of targeted pore chemistry design. Integrating magnetic components into these structures further enhances operational robustness by enabling rapid external-field separation and simplified handling, which is particularly advantageous for magnetic solid-phase extraction workflows. This review synthesizes recent progress in magnetic COF (MCOF) platforms for estrogen capture, focusing on three critical performance determinants. First, it evaluates how crystallinity and structural order govern mass transfer kinetics, selectivity, and framework stability over multiple uses. Second, it assesses pore engineering strategies, such as heteroatom incorporation, host-guest systems, and tailored non-covalent interactions, and how these mechanisms dictate specific estrogen adsorption behavior. Finally, the review clarifies the pathways for sorbent regeneration and lifecycle behavior to emphasize long-term operational viability. By integrating mechanistic design with practical implementation constraints, this work provides a roadmap for transitioning MCOFs from laboratory-scale studies to reliable environmental monitoring and water treatment applications.
