Transgenderism Impacts on Health

Without reporting opposing views or any evidence, the Associated Press claims that transgender “advocates say expanded gender-affirming care is vital to the safety and mental health of transgender people.”Show more

In fact, a 2023 paper about transgender drugs and surgeries in the scientific journal “Current Sexual Health Reports” documents that:

• “Results of long-term studies of adult transgender populations failed to demonstrate convincing improvements in mental health, and some studies suggest that there are treatment-associated harms.”

• “Systematic reviews” have found that “the risk/benefit ratio of youth gender transition ranges from unknown to unfavorable.”

• “Three recent papers examined the studies that underpin the practice of youth gender transition and found the research to be deeply flawed.”

This is corroborated by nine studies on the physical impacts of puberty blockers and a British Medical Journal analysis of transgender drugs and surgeries.
