Florida's Board of Medicine and Board of Osteopathic Medicine both approved a rule on Friday to prohibit minors in the state from receiving gender transition surgeries, puberty blockers, and hormone therapies, the first such ban initiated through state medical boards.
Under the new rule, people under 18 years old will be prohibited from receiving these treatments. The Board of Osteopathic Medicine passed an exception in its rule for those that are already enrolled in a Food and Drug Administration Institutional Review Board-approved clinical trial at an affiliated university center, while the Board of Medicine did not.
Board attorney Ed Tellechea said that the two boards have never before had inconsistent rules, concluding that medical doctors will follow different rules than osteopathic doctors. Over a dozen people spoke after the vote in favor and against the rule.
The Board of Medicine first began the process of drafting the rule in August following a request from state Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo to devise rules to block medical professionals from providing such treatments for youth.
