Controversy Over Gender Transition Interventions for Minors

Federal prosecutors charged surgeon A. Ton Haim with leaking medical documents exposing Texas Children's Hospital's continued offering of gender transition interventions for minors. The hospital had publicly stated discontinuation of such services. This revelation sparked controversy as the Attorney General's opinion considered gender-affirming care as potential child abuse. The leaked documents revealed the detrimental effects of experimental treatments like puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones on children's health and future.
