Urgent Request to the US Surgeon General: Protect Young People from Irreversible Medical Harm

This is 100% child abuse

Stop this NOW!

Chilling irony,pioneering 1950’s transsexualism endocrinologist Dr Harry Benjamin’s early-career fascination was surgically changing the sex of guinea pigs ...Fast fwd to today,real-life guinea pigs of fanatical gender-obsessed clinicians are our ROGDkids+young adults. They’re too ill to even recognise they’re being experimented on

This crisis needs action from above.

Children should not be allowed to make such serious and dangerous life altering decisions. There is a reason you can't vote or smoke until you are 18.

When my kids were teenagers they couldn’t decide to change their underwear or take a shower using soap. How can any child, and yes they are still children, make such a life altering decision.

Everyone with half a brain knows that this is completely nuts.

All children should be protectedfrom this.

Please act based on scientific evidence, not feelings like those with gender dysphoria.

Doctors should not be allowed to perform surgeries to alter a child's body parts or give them drugs to alter the appearance of their gender. That should be only allowed for adults over 18 years of age.

I have always thought steroid blocking hormones is a really serious matter. Young children do not know how to make permanent decisions. Hence the 18 and 21 laws.

Please stop this insanity. Parents who are not in touch with reality are trying to mutilate their children. What happened to human rights, protection of children?

A child’s or a teen aged brain is not fully developed so they can not make a life altering decision. What I till adulthood

Protect Young People from life-altering hormonal and surgical interventions that are not supported by rigorous studies establishing long-term efficacy and safety.

There is a long term (30 year) government study that shows that those who get a sex change operation are far more likely to commit suicide. The conclusion states: CONCLUSIONS: Persons with transsexualism, after sex reassignment, have considerably higher risks for mortality, suicidal behaviour, and psychiatric morbidity than the general population. Our findings suggest that sex reassignment, although alleviating gender dysphoria, may not suffice as treatment for transsexualism, and should inspire improved psychiatric and somatic care after sex reassignment for this patient group. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21364939

Please sir. They are just children and can be easily influenced and misled and confused, please help. Thank you.

Please protect children. These dangerous drugs and procedures should not be available for children. It’s abuse.

This is absolutely fabulous!!!! At least make them wait until they’re AT LEAST 18. But if parents don’t have a problem then the drs don’t care because they are getting paid!

This is no joke, it is not just about cutting off a body part, and it has lifelong consequences to those individuals!

This is bad healthcare practice based on a ideology-based(not science based) medical fad. Please protect the innocent who don't know any better.
