In the past two years, in 25 US states, bills have been introduced to restrict access to gender-affirming medical care for minors. Some have already become law. We show how these bills, while purporting to "protect" trans youth, are really an assault on their ability, along with their parents' and physicians', to make healthcare choices and to receive medically necessary care. We discuss the evidence-based guidelines for the care of these patients, the positions taken by major medical societies against these bills, and the landscape of legal challenges that are being brought against these enacted laws.
在过去的两年里，美国 25 个州都提出了法案，限制向未成年提供性别肯定医疗服务。其中一些已经成为法律。我们展示了这些法案，虽然声称是“保护”跨性别青年，但实际上是对他们以及他们的父母和医生做出医疗保健选择和接受必要医疗护理的能力的攻击。我们讨论了这些患者护理的循证指南、主要医学协会针对这些法案的立场，以及针对这些已颁布法律的法律挑战的现状。
