New questions are emerging about controversial transgender medical experiments on minors in America after the United Kingdom reached a major decision on the issue.
States have been battling over the issue of restricting gender transition medicine and procedures for minors. Now the U.K’.s National Health Service has announced it will no longer prescribe puberty-blocking drugs for children. That decision banning puberty blockers for kids followed an independent review citing safety concerns and limited research on long-term effects.
The NHS concluded: “There is not enough evidence to support the safety or clinical effectiveness of puberty-suppressing hormones to make the treatment routinely available at this time.”
Former U.K. Prime Minister Liz Truss applauded the ban. “I’m delighted that the health service is now saying no under-18s can be prescribed these drugs,” Truss told Fox News.
Here in the U.S., a recent study shows nearly 20 percent of all people identifying as transgender are between the ages of 13 and 17. That’s close to 300,000 children.
The number of kids known to be on puberty blockers or cross-sex hormones has more than doubled in 4 years from nearly 2,400 in 2017 to more than 5,000 in 2021 according to America First.
