About the transgender medical industry in the US

Yes, it is a very disturbing development in Western countries! How much of it is medical quackery?

To call this often times medical malpractice/butchery "gender affirming care" is one of the most horrible euphemisms since "Arbeit macht frei" written over the entrance gate of a German concentration camp!

Why are there apparently so many more transgender women than transgender men? Are the transgender men hiding somewhere? Who benefits more?

How guilty are some of the parents who had their daughter undergo double mastectomy or their son castration? Why is nobody calling it genital mutilation as they would when something like it happens to girls in e.g. Africa (double standard?)?

How many juveniles and adults have already detransitioned (another euphemistic term)? We learn very little about it. Why?

"The Department of Health and Human Services recently issued a scathing indictment of the entire transgender medical scheme in a report titled "Wolves in White Coats: How Doctors and Hospitals Pushed and Profited from the Fraud of 'Gender Medicine.'" 

Here's what the report reveals:
  • 225+ American hospitals launched pediatric gender programs.
  • $50 million in puberty blocker claims—billed as an "unspecified endocrine disorder."
  • $11 million more for teenagers 13 to 17—billed as early puberty.
  • "Gender dysphoria" is NOT an endocrine disorder. And a 17-year-old is NOT in early puberty.
They swapped the codes: insurers got a bill that said "hormone problem," but what they were actually paying for was puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and irreversible, life-altering surgeries on healthy kids.

Why?

FOLLOW THE MONEY.

Here's what the hospital's billing department sees when they treat a "transgender" child:
  • Puberty blockers: $16,385 per child, per year
  • Lifetime hormone therapy: $25,000 to $75,000—before a single surgery
  • Mastectomy: $12,680
  • Vaginoplasty: $53,645
  • Phalloplasty: $133,911

Langzeitstudie: Medizinische Transition senkt psychische Belastung bei Jugendlichen nicht

Es gibt wohl wenig Zweifel, das die medizinische Geschlechtsumwandlung von Kindern oder Jugendlichen oftmals nicht viel mehr ist als quackery!

Gender dysphoria ist eine höchst obskure medizinische Diagnose, die an Aberglaube grenzt.

Wenn Erwachsene ihr Geschlecht ändern wollen, dann ist denen freigestellt. Dann ist das eher nur eine Frage wer zahlt für die Geschlechtsumwandlung, die Krankenkasse oder der Erwachsene aus eigener Kasse. 

"... Nun kommt ausgerechnet aus Finnland eine große Langzeitstudie, die den Kern dieser Erzählung frontal trifft. Die medizinische Transition von Jugendlichen und jungen Erwachsenen unter 23 Jahren senkt den Bedarf an fachpsychiatrischer Versorgung nicht. In einem beträchtlichen Teil der Fälle steigt die psychiatrische Belastung sogar deutlich an.

Die im Magazin Acta Paediatrica veröffentlichte Untersuchung erfasste 2.083 Personen, die sich in Finnland vor dem 23. Lebensjahr zwischen 1996 und 2019 an spezialisierte Gender-Dienste wandten. Dazu kamen 16.643 Kontrollpersonen aus der Allgemeinbevölkerung. Die Nachbeobachtung lag im Median bei fast fünf Jahren, einzelne Fälle wurden über ein Vierteljahrhundert verfolgt. Das ist keine kleine Aktivistenstichprobe und kein gefühliger Erlebnisaufsatz, sondern ein großer Datensatz mit Registerdaten und langer Laufzeit.

Das Ergebnis ist verheerend für die politische Betriebsreligion der „geschlechtsbejahenden“ Medizin. Unter jenen, die eine medizinische Geschlechtsangleichung erhielten, also 38 Prozent der Kohorte, stieg der Anteil mit Bedarf an fachpsychiatrischer Behandlung stark an. Bei biologisch männlichen Jugendlichen, die eine feminisierende Behandlung suchten, sprang der Anteil von 9,8 Prozent vor der Überweisung auf 60,7 Prozent mindestens zwei Jahre danach. Bei biologisch weiblichen Jugendlichen, die eine Transition zum männlichen Geschlecht vornahmen, stieg er von 21,6 auf 54,5 Prozent. ..."

Adolescents who underwent medical gender reassignment had markedly increased psychiatric morbidity during follow-up

More evidence that medical procedures for transgender children and teenagers are often quackery.

Gender dysphoria is one of the most absurd medical diagnosis out there especially when applied to large number of adolescents.

When genital mutilation is involved then these doctors could be criminally liable!

From the abstract:
"Aim
To examine the prevalence of severe psychiatric morbidity among gender-referred adolescents, focusing on gender differences and outcomes related to medical gender reassignment.

Methods
Finnish nationwide cohort of all under-23-year-old gender-referred individuals between 1996 and 2019 (n = 2 083) and 16 643 matched controls. Cross-tabulations with X2 statistics and Cox regression were used to analyse the data.

Results
Gender-referred adolescents showed significantly higher psychiatric morbidity than controls both before (45.7% vs. 15.0%) and ≥ 2 years after referral (61.7% vs. 14.6%). Those referred after 2010 had greater psychiatric needs than earlier cohorts, both before (47.9% vs. 15.3%) and ≥ 2 years after (61.3% vs. 14.2%) referral.
Among adolescents who underwent medical gender reassignment, psychiatric morbidity increased markedly during follow-up—rising from 9.8% to 60.7% in feminising gender reassignment and from 21.6% to 54.5% in masculinising gender reassignment. After adjusting for prior psychiatric treatment, all gender-referred adolescents had similarly elevated risks of psychiatric morbidity, with hazard ratios approximately three times higher than female controls and five times higher than male controls.

Conclusion
Severe psychiatric morbidity is common among gender-referred adolescents and appears to be more prevalent in those referred after the recent surge in referrals. Psychiatric needs do not subside after medical gender reassignment.

Summary
  • Gender-referred adolescents show high psychiatric morbidity, yet gender differences and mental health trajectories after medical gender reassignment remain poorly understood.
  • These adolescents had markedly higher psychiatric morbidity than controls before and after referral, with treatment needs often persisting and even intensifying after medical interventions—on some, they might even have a negative impact.
  • Findings emphasise the need for thorough psychiatric assessment and ongoing treatment throughout medical gender reassignment.

CDC vaccine panel unanimously votes to end universal COVID shot recommendation

Good news! Right decision! Bravo!

In short and in hindsight, SARS-CoV-2/Covid-19 was not very dangerous in general especially not to children nor older adults, but very infectious and dangerous to immunocompromised individuals. Just a reminder: SARS-CoV-2 is a coronavirus similar to the cold virus.

China was not cooperating as it should have when Covid-19 started to spread beyond China. The (modified) virus originated most likely from a lab leak at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (a dual use research institution funded then e.g. even by the US for gain of function research).

CDC vaccine panel unanimously votes to end universal COVID shot recommendation | Just The News "The CDC panel voted to change the universal guidance, which previously recommended the 2024-2025 COVID-19 vaccine for most adults, but Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F.

Green-Mediterranean (including green tea and the aquatic plant Mankai) diet may slow brain aging. Really!

It seems the elite Harvard university is confused about what is the Mediterranean Diet! Or worse, the elite university is involved in dubious appropriating a famous diet by mixing things up!

The traditional Mediterranean Diet of Spain, France, Italy, and Greece does not include green tea or Mankai (Google search result confirmation).

Nice, and very deceptive try to exploit the benefits of the traditional Mediterranean Diet to add some green to it. These benefits of this traditional diet have been advertised and reported about for over 50 years.

"... Over the course of 18 months, the participants consumed one of three diets:
a standard healthy diet;
a traditional calorie-restricted Mediterranean diet, which was low in simple carbohydrates, rich in vegetables, and replaced red meat with poultry and fish; and
the green-Mediterranean diet, which additionally included green tea and Mankai. ...

FTC to Scrutinize Transgender medicine Industry's Threats to parents of Child Suicide

Good news! High time! Long overdue! Teenagers may have temporary euphorias, but maybe not dysphorias like gender dysphorias.

Gender affirming care is one of the most horrible euphemisms of our time when applied to children.

Hopefully, the mania of transgenderism is over again very soon!

Doctors who irresponsibly engage in serious genital mutilation of children in the name of gender dysphoria should be indicted as quacks or charlatans.

"The FTC hosted a daylong workshop on Wednesday called “The Dangers of Gender-Affirming Care for Minors” to hear from parents and patients and determine whether the transgender industry has deceived families. ...

A key part of the context of the possible deception and fraud is that doctors told parents of children experiencing gender dysphoria that they can choose between having “a dead son or a living daughter,” or vice versa. The commissioner referred to rhetoric implying a child would commit suicide if not allowed to medically transition as “emotional blackmail.” ..."

LSD microdosing for ADHD: Does it work? Not really!

Recommendable! At least the study confirmed that treatment with LSD microdosing is safe! 😊

What is microdosing anyway? If the dose is small enough it may not have an effect at all. It becomes a placebo.

"A landmark clinical trial testing the effect of microdosing LSD on symptoms of attention-deficit hyperactive disorder (ADHD) recently delivered its first data readout and the results have been surprising, to say the least, raising questions over the efficacy of this popular trend. ...

Despite this massive wealth of anecdotal evidence, robust clinical research into microdosing has been minimal. The very few placebo-controlled examinations conducted on the practice have pretty consistently struggled to find any effect at all.

The latest clinical trial to test the practice has focused on the effect of microdosing LSD for symptoms of ADHD. The trial is the first to test microdosing in a cohort of patients suffering from a specific condition. Prior trials have mostly focused on mood effects in healthy cohorts or groups with sub-clinical mental health problems. The new trial is also one of the longest and most robust investigations into the popular phenomenon ever conducted. ...

The trial recruited 53 participants, all fitting the diagnostic criteria for moderate to severe ADHD. Half were given LSD microdoses of 20 micrograms, and the other half were given a placebo. All were administered doses twice a week for six weeks.

At the end of the study period all participants showed statistically significant reductions in their ADHD symptoms, regardless of placebo or LSD. In fact, the placebo group displayed marginally greater symptomatic improvements, although that difference was considered statistically insignificant. ..."

From the key points and abstract:
"Key Points
Question
Does twice-weekly low-dose (20 μg) lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) over 6 weeks reduce symptoms of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adults with moderate to severe ADHD compared with placebo?

Findings
In this multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial in 53 individuals, both the LSD and placebo groups exhibited a significant reduction of ADHD symptoms. However, there was no difference in symptom reduction between the 2 groups.

Meaning
LSD was not efficacious in reducing ADHD symptoms compared with placebo; these results question the anecdotal practice and highlight the importance of placebo-controlled trials in low-dose psychedelic research.

Abstract
Importance
Microdosing psychedelics, including lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), has gained attention for its potential benefits in several psychiatric disorders, including attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). However, LSD’s efficacy in reducing ADHD symptoms remains unknown.

Objective
To determine the safety and efficacy of repeated low doses of LSD in reducing ADHD symptoms compared with placebo.

Design, Setting, and Participants
This was a 6-week, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group phase 2A randomized clinical trial conducted between December 17, 2021, and December 4, 2023. Data were analyzed from March 22, 2024, to August 19, 2024. Outpatient treatment was provided at 2 centers: University Hospital in Basel, Switzerland, and Maastricht University in the Netherlands. Adults aged 18 to 65 years with a prior ADHD diagnosis who presented with moderate to severe symptoms (Adult Investigator Symptom Rating Scale [AISRS] score ≥26 and Clinical Global Impression Severity score ≥4) were eligible for inclusion. Key exclusion criteria included selected current major psychiatric or somatic disorders and the use of potentially interacting medications.

Intervention  Participants received either LSD (20 μg) or placebo twice weekly for 6 weeks (total of 12 doses).

Main Outcome and Measures  The primary outcome was the change in ADHD symptoms from baseline to week 6, assessed by the AISRS and analyzed with a mixed-effects model for repeated measures.

Results
A total of 53 participants were randomized to LSD (n = 27) or placebo (n = 26). Mean (SD) participant age was 37 (12) years, and 22 participants (42%) were female.
The LSD group presented a mean AISRS improvement of −7.1 points (95% CI, −10.1 to −4.0).
The placebo group presented a mean AISRS improvement of −8.9 points (95% CI, −12.0 to −5.8), with no difference between groups. LSD was physically safe and psychologically well tolerated overall.

Conclusions and Relevance 
In this randomized clinical trial, repeated low-dose LSD administration was safe in an outpatient setting, but it was not more efficacious than placebo in reducing ADHD symptoms."

Medicaid's Cut of Child Sex-Change Coverage Will Save Millions and many children from quackery

Good news!

Gender dysphoria is one of the most dubious medical terms of our time. The term reminds of quackery.

Gender affirming care is one the most horrific euphemisms of our times! It stands for e.g. double mastectomy or castration!

When something like it happens to girls and women outside of Western countries it is usually quickly and loudly condemned as female genital mutilation!


"... The Trump administration’s decision to prohibit Medicaid coverage of child sex-change procedures will save taxpayers at least $18.5 million. Between 2019 and 2023, the total submitted charges for child sex-change surgeries in the U.S. amounted to $108,516,134, of which $18,476,978 were submitted to Medicaid, including traditional Medicaid and managed Medicaid, according to data from medical watchdog Do No Harm shared with The Daily Signal. There were a total of $119,791,202 submitted charges for sex-change procedures on minors, including both surgeries and medications in the United States, between 2019 and 2023, according to Do No Harm. ...

An Arizona law will hold medical practioners accountable who perform irreversible gender transition procedures on children

Good news!

In my view such procedures should generally be prohibited with as few medically necessary exceptions as possible!

By the way, we do not want to encourage irresponsible parents to subject their children to experiments to satisfy the latest fads and follies. Nor do we want parents to become victims of quacks.

"In another significant step for protecting vulnerable children, SB1586 passed through the House Government Committee on Wednesday. This critical legislation creates accountability for medical professionals who perform irreversible gender transition procedures on children, allowing for recovery after the child realizes the harm done to them. This is another significant moment for protecting Arizona’s youth from experimental procedures that carry life-long consequences. ..."

Study in the BMJ: England Records 50-Fold Rise in Number of Children with Gender Dysphoria in a Decade. Really!

Is this not some sort of a self fulfilling prophecy? Very much so!

Or is the definition of gender dysphoria so ambiguous that almost anything goes especially for children and teenagers? You bet!
"... The NHS defines gender dysphoria as a term “that describes a sense of unease that a person may have because of a mismatch between their biological sex and their gender identity.” ..."

Given all the media attention to this subject it is no wonder that young people get confused (aka dysphoria). There is enough public information about this subject to trigger a mania.

Is gender dysphoria diagnosis and treatment comparable to quackery? You bet!

From the abstract:
"Objective
To examine trends in diagnosis of gender dysphoria and related conditions in children and young people attending primary care practices in England.
Design
Longitudinal analysis of electronic primary care records from the Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD) Aurum database linked to hospital and Index of Multiple Deprivation data.
Setting
Primary care practices in England between 2011 and 2021.
Participants
3782 patients aged 0–18 years with a recorded history of gender dysphoria/incongruence and matched comparators with autism spectrum conditions or eating disorder.
Main outcome measures
Incidence rates and prevalence of gender dysphoria/incongruence; prescribing rates for medical treatments; co-occurrence of anxiety, depression and self-harm.
Results
Between 2011 and 2021, incidence rates of recorded gender dysphoria/incongruence increased from 0.14 (95% CI 0.08 to 0.20) to 4.4 (95% CI 4.1 to 4.7) per 10 000 person years, and from 2014 the rate increased more rapidly in recorded females than males. There was no significant association between gender dysphoria/incongruence and area level deprivation.
Of the 3782 children and young people with a record of gender dysphoria/incongruence, 176 (4.7%) were prescribed puberty suppressing hormones; 302 (8.0%) were prescribed masculinising/feminising hormones; and 1994 (52.7%) had a record of anxiety, depression or self-harm. Compared with matched comparators, those experiencing gender dysphoria/incongruence had similar recorded rates of anxiety and higher rates of depression and self-harm.
Conclusions
Recorded prevalence of gender dysphoria/incongruence increased substantially in children and young people between 2011 and 2021, particularly in recorded females. Levels of anxiety, depression and self-harm were high, indicating an urgent need for better prevention and treatment of mental health difficulties in these patients."

Phoenix Children’s Hospital Ends Gender Transitions For Children Due To Trump

Good news! Bravo! In many cases gender affirming care/gender transition is quackery of the worst kind.

Doctors participating in e.g. double mastectomy or castration of teenagers ought to be compared to Josef Mengele.

"Phoenix Children’s Hospital no longer provides gender transitions for children, parents of gender dysphoric children learned this week. 

The hospital pumped the brakes for its Gender Support Program (formerly the Gender Management Program) shortly after President Donald Trump issued an executive order banning gender transitions for children, “Protecting Children From Chemical and Surgical Mutilation.” 

“Due to the recent executive order issued on January 28, 2025 Phoenix Children’s is indefinitely pausing gender-affirming medical care for children under the age of 19,” read a notice issued by the hospital to patient portals involved in their gender transition program. ..."

Trump Signs Executive Order Banning Government Support for Irreversible Child Sex Changes

Bravo President Trump! This horrific practice has to end! 

Many doctors involved in this mostly quackery are comparable to Dr. Josef Mengele!

Most likely there are very few, rare cases where this kind of sex change is justified and necessary!

How many teenagers want to transition because it is cool? How many reckless adults are tempting or seducing children to have a sex change?

"“Across the country today, medical professionals are maiming and sterilizing a growing number of impressionable children under the radical and false claim that adults can change a child’s sex through a series of irreversible medical interventions,” the order says. “This dangerous trend will be a stain on our Nation’s history, and it must end.

The order says children will “regret that they have been mutilated and begin to grasp the horrifying tragedy that they will never be able to conceive children of their own or nurture their children through breastfeeding.” ..."

Doctor refused to publish a $10 million transgender kids study since 2015 that showed puberty blockers didn't help mental health

Incredible! Will she be prosecuted or has she been fired? No she is still a professor at University of Southern California.

Some doctors are quacks! And some of these quacks treat children!

This is one of largest ever study on this subject! And the results were  suppressed for almost 10 years!

"A prominent doctor and trans rights advocate admitted she deliberately withheld publication of a $10 million taxpayer-funded study on the effect of puberty blockers on American children — after finding no evidence that they improve patients’ mental health. ...

She [Dr. Olson-Kennedy] then flat-out admitted she was afraid the lack of mental health improvements borne out by the study could one day be used in court to argue “we shouldn’t use blockers.” ..."

Texas Attorney General Sues a Dallas based medical director of a clinic Over Illegally Providing gender Transition Procedures to Kids

Some doctors (we hope a tiny minority) are quacks or perform quackery and should lose their license immediately or go to jail in more severe cases!

Any doctor, who performs e.g. a double mastectomy or a castration on a teenager based on a diagnosis like the terrible euphemism "gender dysphoria" is highly suspicious.

And a very few doctors are as bad as Josef Mengele aka as the Angel of Death!

The accused doctor in this case is a medical director of a clinic and an associate professor!

Caveat: I am not familiar with this particular case.

"... lawsuit, filed Thursday, marks the first time a state attorney general has sued an individual doctor over transgender procedures for minors, NBC News reported. ...

The doctor allegedly used false diagnoses and billing codes to mask these unlawful prescriptions, according to Paxton’s news release. ...

Inside Anthony Fauci’s ‘On Call’: 9 health and science takeaways from the memoir of America’s most famous doctor. Really!

Most infamous doctor (age 83) and charlatan would be a much more appropriate description for this man!

One of President Trump's biggest mistakes during his presidency was about this quack. Why did he not sideline this quack or even fire or send him into retirement at age over 80! Only goes to show that too many people have too much respect for doctors.

"Anthony Fauci spent 40 years in the top echelons of government. It was no accident.

To read the forthcoming memoir by the country’s former top infectious disease expert, “On Call: A Doctor’s Journey in Public Service,” a copy of which was obtained by STAT, is to get a sense of his finesse while advising seven presidents.
