That's complete BS and you know it.
They prescribe puberty blockers after the first meeting with these commies.
They're openly admitting this.
The vast majority of these kids do not have gender disphoria. They're just kids with sh!tty parents and/or pedo groomer teachers. That psychologically abuse and groom them into believing this BS.
The backlash from this practice in the next 5-10 years from these poor kids is going to be very ugly.
The murder-suicide rates are going to skyrocket.

Yes its a new word to throw everyone off. It means gender dysphoria or gender confusion.
Those are the folks that don't know what a woman or a man is and believe they can chose the opposite of what their DNA says they are.

What about the ones that are playing games with their parents, keeping up with the cool kids, trying to cause problems, looking for attention..... Are they going to try todetermine that very very substantially large group?

When they figure out how to explain the mass hysteria behind an adolescent/teen FAD they might also figure out how to stop feeding into destructive ones.....like this trans one.

I am of the view if science and medicine are not influenced by politics and political activism then the results will be revealing what most of us know by now, that 'puberty blockers' are harmful for the mental and physical health of children. The same is true for the so-called 'gender affirming care' for minors now banned in many states and has been made illegal.
I think most people with a brain know that the brain is extremely fragile in the early years as the brain and body are still growing and evolving. Smoking Pot at 12 would have huge negative effects that could easily be lifelong compared to someone at 20 that did the same thing. Even diet has profound effects on kids, so why would anyone think that messing with the normal puberty cycle would not have some serious consequences?
The gender ideologues and trans activists don't really think it's a problem. Otherwise how can they support their ideology?
That's not it at all. All those involved in the treatment of kids with gender dysphoria, and they are low numbers, have rigorously gone through targeted psychological assessments while following these kids for years, only then does the parent, child and all medical professionals combined make careful decisions to proceed with puberty blockers (which do not cause infertility). They are not supporting an ideology they are helping and treating gender dysphoria in children who may or may not be at risk.
Gender dysphoria is a mental health issue which can't be treated with hormones or 'puberty blockers' or body part mutilations. It's great many states recognised the issue and made it illegal.
Children with gender dysphoria are not at risk as you say. You equate gender dysphoria with cancer? Or you think it's a terminal condition?
NO
It’s innate: existing in, belonging to, or determined by factors present in an individual from birth :
You accept autism as real.
You accept gender dysphoria as real.
But reject transgender. That is a personal choice, because for whatever reason, in your mind you can’t accept it.
Yet all three — autism, gender dysphoria, transgender are innate.
Yes as there can be anyone who transition between genders. It's physically impossible.
There is no such thing in biology as a transgender. It's a political term.
Not one person discussing transgender has claimed physical sex can be changed.
However, I can’t even count how many times it’s been explained to you that sex and gender are 2 separate things — in detail.
You just “slam the door shut” to accepting any “facts per actual transgender”.
No they're not.
Gender and sex are the same with gender being a synonymous term describing sex and to have been exploited by the trans lobby.
Everyone knows what gender is and there are only 2 of them M and F corresponding to XY and XX respectively.
I do accept that 'puberty blockers' are harmful for kids and as stated in the article many of them saw their mental health deteriorate after using them.
Because, of course, you know more than actual transgenders.
Your selected articles have been debunked.
What selected articles?!
What has been debunked it's the transgender ideology altogether.
The paper is clear and if you would like to deny it's finding it's your choice. Children on 'puberty blockers' can have mental health deterioration.
These are the ne-analyzed stats from the same study of 44 subjects: (from your source)
34% deteriorate
29% improve
37% no change
And those who re-analyzed the original study said they did not know the how nor whys.
Don't you find that ridiculous?
