Mental Health Worsened After Gender Transitions for Youth, Major Study Finds

A major new study has found that mental health outcomes worsened for young people who underwent gender transitions, challenging the prevailing clinical narrative that such interventions improve psychological wellbeing. The research adds to a growing body of evidence that has prompted several European countries to restrict pediatric gender medicine. The findings are likely to intensify the political and medical debate over gender-affirming care for minors in the United States.
