From The Epoch Times:
“The evidence for gender-affirming surgical intervention in minors is insufficient for us to make a definitive statement,” the American Medical Association told news outlets in a statement.
The association added that “in the absence of clear evidence,” it agrees with the American Society of Plastic Surgeons that surgical interventions in minors should be generally deferred to adulthood.
The American Society of Plastic Surgeons announced on Feb. 3 that it recommends surgeons not carry out “gender-related surgeries,” such as the removal of breasts or genitals, until a patient is at least 19.
The American Medical Association has, up until this point, staunchly defended transgender surgeries for minors. The group even promised in 2024 to “oppose laws and policies that criminalize, prohibit or otherwise impede the provision of evidence-based, gender-affirming care.”
As mentioned above, the American Medical Association is not the first group to change its stance on transgender surgeries. As IFA Contributing Writer Belinda Brewster reported on Thursday, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons became the first major medical group to oppose these surgeries for minors earlier this week. This comes amid a larger push in our society against trans surgeries, which are supported by little evidence, according to an HHS report from last year.
Across America, many are finally waking up and seeing the truth about the lies of transgenderism. As this pushback continues, let’s pray for children everywhere in America to be protected from these harmful, irreversible treatments and surgeries!
