‘Unacceptable Safety Risk’: UK Bans Puberty Blockers For Minors

[excalibur]

More sanity than the Democrats have.

What is it about doing this to children Democrats, and the American left, so loves?

The United Kingdom (UK) indefinitely banned the use of puberty-blocking drugs for minors Wednesday after recommendations from experts that warned of an “unacceptable safety risk.”

The ban affects the sale and supply of the drugs to all citizens under 18 following an independent review by the Commission on Human Medicines, according to a press release from the British government. The ban will be reviewed in 2027.

“The Commission on Human Medicines (CHM) has provided independent expert advice that there is currently an unacceptable safety risk in the continued prescription of puberty blockers to children,” the statement reads. “It recommends indefinite restrictions while work is done to ensure the safety of children and young people.”

The UK previously halted the prescription of puberty blockers for children in March after it found “insufficient evidence to show they were safe.”

...

The UK’s only youth gender clinic, Tavistock Centre, was shut down in 2022 over concerns it was rushing children through sex-change procedures without proper evidence, and an investigation revealed it was “not safe” for kids.

A United States study failed to prove any efficacy in improving children’s mental health by prescribing puberty blockers, though the full results of the study have yet to be released reportedly because the researcher did not want the findings to be used by opponents of sex-change procedures for children.

The sooner societies can get back to normal and send all this trans and gender thing to the bin, the better. These folk need mental help and care, not medicine and surgery. And leave kids to be kids and let them grow up.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

Just common sense

 

[Scoutster]

I tend to agree blockers and surgery should not be allowed for minors in my opinion.

 

[Mac-7]

The brits found an acorn

What a surprize

 

[Thunk]

Can't imagine puberty blockers are gonna do much for an adult

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

The sooner societies can get back to sensible and let trans and gender thing do their business, the happier we all will be. These anti-trans folk need some better manners, not screaming and yelling.

Leave children alone. It's that simple but yet you can't stop

Democrats want to put masks over our faces, tell us when we cannot buy what and for where, tell us to get multiple untested vaccines, etc.

But their fetish is sexual, so there, you MUST allow whatever for whomever.

It's not a good ideology

"Hi, I will call you 'she' if it makes you feel better. But since you have a penis, you can't change clothes with my 14 yo daughter."

That's sensible and polite.

First: I am not as to what you classify to be a Democrat, since I REJECT any Fake Democracy.
Second: I am not a Trumpfter either - who believes that he has any right to tell others what to do, or to tell them what is right or wrong.

Ok.

Answer the question.

Ok.

Answer the question.

What question? the OP only posted an article - and clearly misinterpreted the issue of medicament's posing an unacceptable safety risk.

Do you believe that the people in the UK who came to this conclusion and took this action:

“The Commission on Human Medicines (CHM) has provided independent expert advice that there is currently an unacceptable safety risk in the continued prescription of puberty blockers to children,” the statement reads. “It recommends indefinite restrictions while work is done to ensure the safety of children and young people.”

. . .

were sincerely interested in protecting children from dangerous procedures, or that they are just perverts who obsess about children's genitals?

You are merging two different topics/issues into a single matter - which is wrong

1. is about e.g. research in regards to medicament's being safe - which obviously the Brit's are questioning and therefore IMO correctly decided to hold medicament's that have not passed the usual cycle of research - just like the vaccines that Trump promoted after only 6-12 month of research. - totally unacceptable to any ethical scientist.

2. is the closure of a youth gender clinic - due to the concerns of "rushing" children through sex change procedures. These concerns might be based on facts or just assumptions - the article doesn't specify this.

Since you do not mention it, I assume that you do not accuse the Brits involved of "obsessing over children's genitals."

That was the only question that I had for you.

Nothing to do with Brit's or Americans or Germans, etc. etc. but simply with bigot conservatives, that are "obsessed about other's children's genitals". especially if those children happen to be from non-bigot conservatives.

I am not a scientist or a medical proficient person to decide as to the procedures being in place to determine gender issues - being correct or sufficient or not. - Neither are you or your Trumpfter pals.

“The service is committed to patient safety,” a Tavistock spokesman told the DCNF. “It works with every young person on a case-by-case basis, with no expectation of what might be the right pathway for them, and only the minority of young people who are seen in our service access any physical treatments while with us.”

He said it was unclear how attorneys had arrived at the number 1,000 for the lawsuit.

As I had already stated - until a court verdict occurs, there is no proof that would verify or refute these claims.

So the Brits who stopped these procedures from being used on children are also perverts and bigot conservatives because they are obsessed about other's children's genitals? How and when did the British medical profession become so full of such people? Are they Trumfpers?

I am not a scientist or a medical proficient person to decide as to the procedures being in place to determine gender issues - being correct or sufficient or not. - Neither are you or your Trumpfter pals.

Then how do you know that concerns about transgenderization of children are not valid? Because nothing coming from someone outside your tribe can ever be valid?

I'm sure you are rooting against those perverted Bigot conserservatives who have the audicity to worry about how their children were treated.
