  3. CW: CW: Transgender children, gender dysphoria, mental health.

    I understand why the UK government is banning puberty-blockers for minors, as it's true that very little research has been done as to the longer-term effects of the drugs on transgender children, and it is important that any treatment should be thoroughly scrutinised and researched.

    Thus far, the medical treatment of transgender kids in the UK has been a shambles, so hopefully more research will help to create a stable framework on which to build coherent treatment plans to include mental health, medical, and researched pharmaceutical options for trans minors.

    However, I sincerely hope there is going to be a robust support system implemented to regularly monitor their mental health as they go through puberty, because otherwise, there will inevitably be an increase in the mental illness and suicide rate.

    At the very least, the kids and their families should be offered regular and frequent counselling with mental health professionals who understand gender dysphoria. So far as I'm aware, nothing of that nature has been organised, and I find that deeply concerning.

  8. Puberty blockers are not experimental, there’s a wealth of research showing them to be safe and effective. They are used “off-label”, which means they are used outside their licenced use. Children are commonly prescribed “off-label” medication. Other medicines prescribed “off-label” include the contraceptive pill, which is used to treat acne.
