Gender affirming care hurts children and adolescents.
Conclusions from The Cass Review, which is nearly 400 pages and took four years to compile:
- Thousands of vulnerable young people were given life-altering treatments with "no good evidence on the long-term outcomes of interventions to manage gender-related distress."
- "It has been suggested that hormone treatment reduces the elevated risk of death by suicide in this population, but the evidence found did not support this conclusion."
- "Social justice" ideology is driving medical decision-making, and "the toxicity of the debate" has created an environment "where professionals are so afraid to openly discuss their views."
- The majority of gender-dysphoric patients in early studies found symptoms desisted during puberty, with most coming out as gay or bisexual later.
