Missouri Becomes First State To Crack Down on Sex-Change Treatments for Adults

WFB: Missouri attorney general Andrew Bailey (R.) on Thursday issued an emergency rule that establishes extensive safeguards on providing transgender medical interventions to both adults and children.

The emergency rule, citing dozens of scientific studies and reports, concluded that because gender transition interventions are “experimental” and pose “significant side effects,” state law requires “substantial guardrails” around such procedures. Those guardrails, the rule states, include ensuring patients have undergone at least 15 hourly psychiatric assessment sessions over the course of 18 months, informing patients explicitly that the “use of puberty blocker drugs or cross-sex hormones” to treat gender dysphoria “is experimental and is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration,” and requiring those who receive such treatments to get medical follow-ups for 15 years.

The act comes as Bailey continues his investigation into St. Louis Children’s Hospital’s Transgender Clinic. His office launched the investigation in early February in response to a whistleblower’s report of “egregious abuses and potential malpractice regarding minors.”

While 11 other states prohibit pediatric transgender treatments, citing similar concerns over significant side effects and a lack of solid scientific support, this is the first state rule addressing adult patients. more

  1. Freely dispensed, for off label ise, yet should a medical professional call for ivermectin or hydroxychloroquin (spelling?) these same people acream “heretic” and pull licenses…

  2. It’s their plan to make more money since covid isn’t ‘the thing’ anymore – and yes, Ivermectin is a wonder drug – a cure for the common cold. Very few side effects. Hydroxy is also effective against covid.

    But they’re now setting up kids to be constant patients, and they’ll try to get government to pay the bills for the poor experiments.

    I would not wish those experiments on my worst enemy. I’d rather have them pushing daisies than funding the Dr Moreau’s of the world.
