California gender doctor refuses to publish study on puberty blockers over fears it will be ‘weaponized’ politically

PM: Dr. Johanna Olson-Kennedy, the director of Children’s Hospital Los Angeles’ Center for Transyouth Health and Development, has revealed that she has not yet published the results of a long-awaited study on puberty blockers for minors because of potential political attacks, the New York Times has revealed.

Olson-Kennedy began the study in 2015, recruiting 95 children from across the US as part of a $9.7 million federal project on transgender youth, giving the subjects puberty blockers. Researchers then followed the children’s development over two years to see how the drugs affected their mental health.

A study from 25 years ago, commonly referred to as the Dutch protocols, studied puberty blockers and sex change treatment for a small cohort of young people who presented with gender dysphoria at a young age, mostly boys who presented as girls. This study was used as the basis for gender medicine in minors across the world but was re-examined in 2023 and found to have many fatal flaws. Even so, Olson-Kennedy told The Times that her study did not come to the same results as those previous ones, which were at the time widely considered to be positive. more here

  1. See an interview of Clementine. A patient of “Dr.” Olson Kennedy. After a 30 minute examination, Olson-Kennedy prescribed hormone therapy that made the young teenager sterile for the rest of her life. She is infertile.
    The upside. She’s 18, mad as hell and lawyered up.
    Lawsuit city coming their way.

  2. She got 9.7 million dollars but can’t publish the results because of funding cuts? What in the world did she do with the 9.7 MILLION?? Why is,this allowed to happen, my tax dollars just pissed away by quacks? Our system is so broken.

  3. Owned by the drug industries dollars and fear. Sounds like the same style of mental justification that brought us the Nazi’s and other groups over the years and goes on yet today. Humans over rate themselves and refuse to learn. Maybe evolution will get it right in the future, because we’re not smart enough to see the truth when it’s right in front of us.

  4. John: “See an interview of Clementine.”

    The one where she spoke with Billboard Chris? He is a great warrior.

    And (color me SHOCKED!) Dr. Olson-Kennedy is “married” to a Trans man.
