Current Event: Planned Parenthood (& Standford, etc.) Dance With Being De-Funded

[Silhouette]

SARASOTA, FL (WWSB) – Planned Parenthood is hoping to make life a little bit easier for the transgender community. They are now offering transgender hormone replacement therapy for those under the age of 18. Planned Parenthood now offering transgender hormone therapy to those under 18

Except there's a problem:

Professional standards of care are being promulgated that state children should receive puberty-blocking drugs at as young as age 9, and cross-sex hormones at age 16—but there have been no controlled clinical trials on puberty blocking for gender dysphoria, and the Food and Drug Administration has not approved these drugs for treatment of gender dysphoria.New Paper Says Puberty Blockers Aren’t the Answer to Gender Confusion

We have prosecuted Nazi war criminal doctors for less invasive experimentation on kids in Jewish death camps.

...the used of puberty blockers to treat transgender children is what's considered an "off label" use of the medication- something that hasn't been approved by the Food and Drug Administration....We do know that there is some decrease in bone density during treatment with pubertal suppression...there isn't enough research on is whether someone who was on puberty blockers will regain all their bone strength, or if they might be at risk for osteoporosis in the future...Another area where doctors say there isn't enough research is the impact that suppressing puberty has on brain development.. When Transgender Kids Transition, Medical Risks are Both Known and Unknown

They also have been listed as the WHO as known carcinogens that basically guarantee cancer at some point in the child's life.

Discuss. Want to take bets that even though this is a breaking topic in current events, that it will be dungeoned into the "health and lifestyle" quicksand?

6 million Jews compared to over 60 million Americans since Roe v Wade....you're right.....there's no comparison.

I don't think they are "Americans" until birth.

They're more American than any illegal....but I'm sure you feel they deserve less consideration.

No. They aren't. Unless you believe that the only thing that makes one American is a peice of paper.

You see there's where we disagree.
No piece of paper makes you a true American.

Just living here doesn't make you one.
What you contribute to our society is what makes you one.
Unless you think sitting on a couch watching TV vegging out waiting for your next government check is a contribution.

Maybe states who oppose abortion should just arrest all PP employees and use the precedent of sanctuary states and cities as their justification.

Are you aware the US was the first to use sterilization and it went on till 1972 in Al. Forced sterilization.

Since the risk is known doing wt bearing exercises should help alleviate the issue. Our new FDA is taking away lots of regs on meds, so expect more of it, huge defunding.

I remember that vaguely, yes. What the fuck does your point mean? That two wrongs make a right?

Deregulating regulated harmful substances kind of defeats the purpose of having a regulatory agency, don't you think?

Long story short, these "doctors" are using FDA substances against labelled use, in a manner that permanently disfugures/stunts children. So, that's 1. Malpractice and 2. In violation of federal law (illegal). And, we've prosecuted doctors from Germany post WWII for permanently disfiguring Jewish children in Nazi death camps. So, there you go.
