Good News: UK's National Health Service Bans Puberty Blockers for Minors

1, all of Old Blighty is now as "unsafe for gays" as Florida, and 2, the leftwing UK is now more reasonable on this issue than the demonic US ruling class.

Some kids will still be dosed with the poison, but at least it will be a limited number, only for purposes of an experimental study. Kids will no longer just be able to get this stuff prescribed.


Imagine! Studying the effects of a treatment before prescribing it to children en masse!

The UK has joined the Alt-Right!



Conversation SEGM @segm_ebm

According to the NHS England's final interim specifications for treating gender dysphoric (GD) youth, published earlier today, the primary intervention for GD children & young people <18 will be psychosocial & psychological support and intervention. /1

The main objective of the intervention is to alleviate distress associated with gender incongruence & promote the individual's global functioning and wellbeing. Clinicians are reminded that trans identification may be a transient phase for many youth. /2

Due to the clinical complexity of the currently presenting cases, multidisciplinary teams will be required to conduct standardized comprehensive assessments incl. evaluation for autism, ADHD and other neurocognitive issues in order to develop holistic case formulations. /3

In other words, clinicians will be required to examine the psychological comorbidities. They can't just follow the American/WPATH theory that all psychological problems are due to a secret longing to be the opposite sex so if you prescribe drugs and surgery, that fixes all of the mental illnesses.

NHS England recognized the dearth of research and has established a new national Children and Young People's Gender Dysphoria Research Oversight Board. It is chaired by Professor Sir Simon Wessely and includes a range of other clinical and academic experts including Dr. Cass. /4

The NHS will focus on gathering evidence on the safety, potential benefits & harms of medical interventions. It also establishes a structured research program to study epidemiology; prediction; the course of gender questioning; and outcomes of psychological treatments. /5

Study epidemiology? I hope this means they will study and prove the social contagion spread of this mental illness.

The specifications for the use of puberty blockers (PB) & cross-sex hormones for 16+ have not yet been published. However, the intention is that PB will only be allowed for those with early-onset gender dysphoria and /6

The NHS recognizes an even greater uncertainty regarding youth with what they call "late-onset gender dysphoria" (alternative names for this presentation include "ROGD"). This signals that the NHS may take an even more cautious approach to this (now ubiquitous) patient cohort./7

ROGD = "Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria." When tweens and teens suddenly decide they want to be the other sex. The new guidance suggests, then, that clinicians be especially wary with such claims.

Note that, unfortunately, this means that kids who claim to be opposite gender very early in life will be treated as more likely candidates for these procedures. Two steps forward, one step back is still one step forward.

But this doctor, Miriam Grossman, who is very opposed to the trans epidemic, does say that there really are very rare cases, 1-in-10,000 cases, in which very young children insist they're the opposite gender. So that seems to be the carve-out the NHS is acknowledging may be real, while rejecting the idea that fourteen year olds suddenly realize they're living in the wrong body.


The NHS asserts that social gender transition (SGT) is not a neutral act and has potential for harm. However the NHS recognizes that some families will pursue SGT regardless. The decision will rest with families, but clinicians will help families understand its implications. /8

No more demand that kids be automatically "affirmed" and "validated" in their mental illness. Parents will be told of the risks and harms of "transitioning." Not just browbeaten by emotionally-invested activists with the line, "Do you want a dead son or a live daughter?"

I think this means they seem to be ignoring the American "WPATH" claims. WPATH is the transgender health collective funded by the Pritzker freaks.

The NHS document makes no mention of WPATH criteria suggesting that SOC8 does not play a significant role in NHS thinking. It's also notable that the evidence for puberty blockers is deemed insufficient and that the new recommendations embed the exploratory approach throughout./9
