Continuing the blanket ban on puberty blockers is a worrying decision. The same medication continues to be used safely by young people for other reasons. By relying on the reason for prescription, is this simply discrimination against our #trans youth? 👇 #TransKidsMatter

This is dangerous nonsense Sian. You should probably delete the tweet. There are huge differences between the uses, doses, period of use and ages for the use of PBs for precocious puberty. For PP, It's a tactical, acute intervention. Whereas, the use of PBs for the gender metaphysical mental condition (so-called Gender dysphoria according to a hastily and bizarre session including a maverick phalanx from DSM-5 TR) is unproven and far potentially far more destructive as it halts puberty completely rather than temporarily pausing it until a PP sufferer returns to normal. Furthermore, the reason of prescription is essential and not discriminatory. For instance among other things, Zoladex is used to help post menopausal women and is used in retro-cancer treatment for both sexes, whereas Lupron has other uses including chemical castration for sex offenders. You are wantonly fanning flames of an unnecessary toxic stand-off. You should be totally ashamed to dip this low.

I hope you have an excuse ready for the child abuse inquiries of the future.

This is rubbish. The only approved use of puberty blockers is for a rare condition called precocious puberty. You know puberty blockers have adverse side effects. Your position is an absolute science denying disgrace. You also know that.

I’m sorry but to post this in Dec 2024 only shows how little you understand the issues, the different ways in which these drugs are used, and the totally different context of medicalising minors distressed with their sexed bodies There’s also a serious homophobic side to it that I wish you would consider Happy to chat

Don't be so irresponsibly disingenuous, you disgusting woman

It’s great news. Why don’t the Greens get back to campaigning about the environment instead of poisoning and butchering confused children?

Used for a limited time for a specific condition (and there are questions about safety even so). So-called "trans" children experiencing precocious puberty will continue to be prescribed as well, so it is not discrimination. This is idiot level law.

Oh what utter bullshit. Shame on you.

No such thing as trans youth. You may as well talk of goth youth, punk youth, or ska youth (etc, etc) and advocate for their medical interventions. Idiocy.

Why do you want to harm children?
