Testosterone being given to 8-y-o girls, age lowered from 13: doctors

WASHINGTON — Medical doctors and a mom of a trans-identifying child are urging the government to shut down medical operations that are harming children.

Their efforts to resist the medicalization of gender has led them to discover that government-funded research now allows wrong sex hormones such as testosterone to be given to girls as young as 8.

At a Thursday panel at the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank, Dr. Michael Laidlaw addressed the medical harms of hormonal treatments and surgical interventions being performed on young people who believe they are the opposite sex. Doctors administering these treatments are advocating these harmful practices on increasingly younger children, he explained.

Today, medical scenarios such as girls as young as 13 and 14 undergoing double mastectomies and 17-year-old boys with penises of 9-year-olds, developmentally speaking, because of chemical puberty blockers, are now showing up, Laidlaw, a Rocklin, California-based endocrinologist, explained in his remarks.

Under the nebulous concept of "gender identity," children as young as 8 are receiving injections for gender transition treatment, he explained. The phrase was defined in a recent court case as a person's "core internal sense" of their own gender and that it was the "primary factor" in determining their sex, not biology. This is false, the endocrinologist said.

No blood test, genetic testing, or brain imaging scans can find a "gender identity," Laidlaw said, adding "there is no objective test to diagnose this, yet we are giving very harmful therapies on the basis of no objective diagnosis."

This isn’t happening in China, Russia or the Muslim world.

It’s happening in the USA & Western Europe.

If you think about the NWO’s main goal, reduced population, this all makes sense. Sick but it is what it is.

Same with celebrating of all the proud to be genetic-dead-ends.

These girls will NEVER be able to have children.

Unfortunately for the sake of deterrence, that is not true as long as the girl does not have surgery on her private parts. There have been several instances of testosterone-taking "transmen" who have become pregnant and delivered children, five-o'clock shadow and all.
