I went to an AMA convention once, as an alternate. It's very politically diverse. Still it's very political! The psych diagnoses have had as series of "diseases" removed over the years. I think it's time to remove more because these bigots are going to say "it's classified as a disease!!"
They aren't even handing them out to women who need one medically. I was anemic, in excruciating pain. When it was finally removed the Dr said, "wow, no wonder you were in pain, your uterus is trash" (I had adeno, endo, my fallopian tubes where scarred from hulka clips, fibroids, you name it) I just stared and said ya I wasn't making anything up. I actually was suffering. I can't imagine being labeled elective and trying to get one.
Good. The Missouri AG doesn't get to name-drop one of THE organizations that handles these medical care, disregard said care standards so blatantly, and then expect the organization to stay silent.
I juuust saw a short about it today. It hasn't been done successfully for a trans person yet (it was attempted and failed), but there is research being done, that would be a first step toward pregnancy.
not really, It's been long established that Hormone therapy, sex reassignment surgery, and other gender affirming treatments have a profound positive impact on gender dysphoria. There is of course some unresolved details that will be uncovered in future studies, such as the full list of long-term side effects of hormone therapy, but the fact that it resolves people's gender dysphoria is not really questioned. Only 1% of those who get gender reassignment regret the decision.
No it bloody isn't. Stop getting your info from reactionary propagandists and start listening to the professionals in these fields. The vast majority says that gender affirming care is not experimental.
"Puberty delaying medications are currently provided off label to adolescents affected by gender dysphoria and this particular use cannot be investigated by a RCT. We have shown that this does not mean they are experimental drugs or are provided experimentally." https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7430465/
Literally from the journal article: "Moreover, puberty is not ‘suppressed’; the intervention is temporary and thus puberty is being delayed, rather than suppressed."

Nazi Germany rounded up and destroyed a lot of scientific and medical research into these areas as well.

It’s much more than 1% and those are just the short term studies. Get out your google scholar

We can agree to disagree. My info comes from journal articles btw.

But you can’t delay puberty without fundamentally altering their hormones… there is no pause button.
