- Опубліковано 7 лют 2023
- Sweden, the first country to introduce legal gender reassignment, has begun restricting gender reassignment hormone treatments for minors. With the number of diagnoses soaring, the medical community faces the dilemma of weighing precaution against the risks associated with not offering treatment to those suffering from gender dysphoria. According to health services, approximately 8,900 people have been diagnosed with gender dysphoria in Sweden between 1998 and 2021.

I DON'T care about ADULTS transitioning... I just glad this finally happened somewhere, it gives me hope.
If only the American Academy of Pediatrics had this sense
they are too politicized and likely influenced by big pharma.
American medicine is all about $$$.
@@goaway5559 I was just going to write that
$$$$$$$$$$$$
They were the first to allow this and now the first to put the breaks on it after the fact... my gosh if that doesn't tell us something what does??
It tells us, we should never ever think it’s okay to experiment on children and allow children on social media ready to brainwash them.
Litterally the only thing they've done is step back on hormone blockers due to uncertainty. There is good evidence to suggest they're harmless but they just decided to play it safe since the evidence isn't 100% telling yet.
They are not banning trans healthcare
It is dangerous when folks without any knowledge about psychology want to convince kids that they need risky surgeries for body dysphoria. What they need is psychotherapy where their issues and worries can be resolved and their confidence is restored together with positive reassurance for their value as a person.
I was three months into transition started HRT. (MTF)
My last shot was last Saturday.
It has been 7 days.
It has been rough.
But I know it will pass as my testosterone comes back up.
People I was 29 years old when I started hormones.
I made a mistake.
Luckily I wasn't on long enough to see permanent changes.
Though my T was near nuked.
If grown adults like myself make mistakes like this
What percentage of kids are making this mistake?
Affirmation I feel subjectively is not always a good thing.
Mental health is very complex.
Just my thoughts
Why are you still getting shots?
Very doubtfull this is true because if actually had been transitioning as is recommended you would know how it actually goes
555 you live in your private universe where you only believe your own convictions. Just leave others make their decisions instead of gaslighting them to live your live path.
@@eilaollinheimo4573 I'm just pointing out that was is said about how the treatments go here do not line up with how the treatments actually go. You don't just transition for a little and then start taking hormones
Any Doctor who gives children these hormones should be in prison! They now know there are serious, irreversible, side effects, and yet they do it anyway knowing a child is making this decision! Any child who wants this needs to know all the things that can happen to them such as cancer, osteoporosis, shortened lifespan, spinal fractures, and much more! This is horrific! Thank you to Sweden for coming to your senses and I hope the rest of the world follows your example
Say that to the child that took their life cause she didin’t get trans healthcare.
Wowz the video you're commenting user disproves your comment, congrats
If they take their life due that it is more your fault because you want to convince them that they are not fine as they are.
@@eilaollinheimo4573 oh my God shut up it has already been proven that the kids who transition have a higher incidence of committing suicide - not before! That's the big thing isn't it scaring the parents with the suicide threat! Allowing a child to make a life altering decision, and when they get older, they regret it and can't turn it around. That is the biggest problem You people are disgusting! Leave the kids alone!
Yea no wonder she werent fine or what? No one convinced her anything she was the one that wanted to come out to her parents then friends and such. When puberty was around the corner she didin’t want to go through it bc of her gender dysphoria. You dont understand how different the process of Trans Healthcare in Sweden and the USA. In Sweden it would take about 2-5 years for a 30 year old person to start or get any kind of treatment do you see how that will be a problem?
Så bra av Sverige och svenska myndigheter att sätta ett stop för detta, barn kan inte lämna samtycke till sterilisering. Självklart måste vi hjälpa unga trans personer med psykisk välbefinnande och acceptans i samhället men inte genom medikalisering av småbarn.
Imagine if 14 isn't old enough to decide if R. Kelly is allowed to piss on you but is old enough to decide you want "gender identity treatment".
The reason why more people want it is because the manipulation of children is somewhat acceptable. Instead of helping kids understand and to help them back on track there helping further the delusion. Our world is unrecognizable at this point.
I agree, sadly. They’re using children as lab rats. It’s despicable but what’s happened when you take god completely out of society and them add a social contagion via social media targeted toward children.
And many adults having kids .. are mor0ns themselves
Its enough for surgery in California if the parents claim their boy is feminine! Bizarro world
What you're suggesting is putting kids on conversion therapy. This is know to cause them to kill themselves.
"fully reversible" isn't that what they said?
Evidence still suggests this but the evidence isn't as clear cut as other areas. Many places still accept it and say that there is enough to accept the treatment because of how much good it can do but other places just play it safe till more is known.
This in no way means it is proven harmful
It's gone up because of social media not because it's more actual people with true Gender Dysphoria
Facts like that get a person in all kinds of trouble.
Lmao, this is known to not be true.
If you get influenced by social media into thinking you're trans you're not gonna get far in the healthcare.
Lol you silly chow. There has always been trans people, they were just oppressed and now they are being oppressed again.
Social contagion
Won’t read about this in the NYT or The Atlantic.
I thought Sweden was woke?? Well a step in the right direction for Sweden. 🇸🇪💯
Trans kids exist the problem is that there is an increase of not actual trans people trying to do transition. Not everyone is trans. Sometimes kids just are confuse. But trans kids to exist.
Yeah, they aren't even banning trans healthcare. They are being cautious in areas where some doubts still exist
The nastiest most dangerous fad Blame social media.
It's not a fad. We have records going back centuries
Centuries ago they did not promote it like now.
Messing with physiology and hormones, not to mention genitals and bodies of still growing developing children is plain evil. do what ever you want with your body as adult by all means, but leave kids alone, they are off limit and too impressionable period!!
It just shocks me that we got here at all. And of course if we left adults to do whatever we want, children would follow. Guess who are children's 'role models'?
We have to stop thinking & saying individual adults can do what they want and think what we do as individual adults affects society. We've been so conditioned to think it's all about the individual's needs and wants and it is not, it's so narcissistic.
Everything is very connected.
They have been ignoring those who regret and are abused and silenced wanting to detransition back
They haven't. They just know that any treatment has regret rates. Knee surgeries have more but no one is boycotting that. 99% success is unheard of that's how good it is
You actually compare knee surgeries to sex change? Knee surgery is bit psychological condition.
@@eilaollinheimo4573 no so a knee surgery is a much less complicated matter comparatively. Yet it still has a higher regret rate despite that.
Knee surgeries can go wring thus causing more pain or even disability. Sometimes they are necessary and they are not done lightly. If you have knee pain you do not just get surgery if there is no physical serious defect. Sex change is mostly psychological want not a physiological need. Very different.
Also all surgeries carry serious risks and should be the last option.
They ⚧️ community want access to the children because they are easily manipulated. Once the become adults, they are less likely to become trans.
You can not become trans. They aren't manipulating children they are teaching them about facts that can save their lives
This 555 group is clearly a troll with no medical knowledge. According to him I do not need a pacemaker even when I am pacemaker dependent. He compares knee surgery to
trans surgery.
As I am not interested playing with this person from the empty group 555 without any credentials or any other troll like individuals I will comment on this main thread only.
What Antonia says are what young people without experience of the world say, if a child at 14 who really loved tattoos was allowed to have then they could cover their body in them, when they’re 20 they might still be happy, but if not they can cover them with clothes of have some removed, even another to cover it. But we also know that at 14 our brains aren’t very developed, it’s difficult for children to think a year into the future, asking them to think 10 years in the future they can’t do it. They would almost all say they wouldn’t change their mind about many things.
These medications & surgeries can’t be reversed, they have long lasting implications and serious side effects, bone strength, needing long term catheters, infections, higher risk of cancer & heart problems…it’s not braces to fix wonky teeth
Wonderful ❤️ 🙏
No accountability. You want this, you pay, you also pay for the consequences.
When a left wing nation says it's terrible, maybe ot should be an obvious sign that it's not a good idea.
This anti trans movement is nuts. People are acting like trans people were never children. I had to wait until I was 18 back in 2000. My parents said "it's just a phase".
Treatment is offered as an alternative to suicide and of course many would choose treatment over suicide. I attempted at 13. The condition being less rare than expected is no reason to act like suicide was how you're supposed to handle it. When I transitioned, 40% of those my age had survived a suicide attempt pre transition. Nobody understands how horrific it is to a little girl to watch her body change to look like some hairy man's body. Teen boys having nightmares about their penis falling off wake up and grab their crotch to check if their penis is still there only to find menstrual blood in its place.
90s research found 100% of post ops who died organ donors had a brain sex that matched their gender identity. But people still say "what if you're wrong?!?" And "accept your body" and "kids are too young to decide!". Like WTF, you've NO clue what being trans is like. It's not a phase. It's not a fad. And intersex genitals aren't either btw. Only the queer community and experts who focus on us listen to us. I'm in my 40's. I'm lucky I survived childhood.
At 18 you are still a kid tbh. What would you do if you had those problems 100 years ago, if there was no hormonal or operational options? Would you just kill yourself? Just wondering....
England just joined them.
I am totally fine kids at whatever age socially transitioning. However medical transition such as puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and Gender affirmation surgeries need to be completely banned for anyone under 18+. If an adult has to medically transition, and if they have gone through good non affirmative mental health therapy and if they have a diagnosis of Gender Dysphoria then they should medically transition. However trans adults should explore non medical transition options as well. I am saying this a Trans-adult myself.
