📣 Today @felicitycallard.bsky.social and I have published the first peer-reviewed response to the 'Sullivan Review' of research and data on sex and gender. doi.org/10.1111/tran... The Review could threaten trans rights and inclusion, erode academic freedom, and undermine research quality.

Participants in Dr Horton's study contrasted abuse under GIDS and the new Children and Young People’s Gender Service with the affirmative approach of WellBN GP practice, which provided real space for exploration and reflection. WellBN is now under NHS investigation for providing this care.

Incredibly important new study from Cal Horton @fiercemum.bsky.social - the first to look at England's post-Cass child/adolescent gender clinics. Dr Horton found patients and families are being actively harmed, with one young person describing appointments as "the worst thing I’ve ever experienced”.

@sasha98.bsky.social provides analysis of just how precarious and inconsistent access to trans healthcare on the NHS has become. They highlight how official guidance has favoured giving hostile and nervous clinicians excuses, rather than empower or expect them to provide good care standards.

Trans Safety Network are extremely concerned that DHSC are continuing to solicit input on trans healthcare from Bayswater and other anti trans groups after a reply to our previous concerns stated they would not work with groups who promote harmful practices or discriminatory views

Trans Safety Network have written to Healthwatch regarding their concerning recommendations in their trans health report. We fear if this report is not withdrawn, it will lead to significant deterioration in trans people's ability to access NHS care. transsafety.network/posts/danger...

I had BDD added to my NHS record after I requested a referral to a GIC. I have never been diagnosed with BDD. I do not have any symptoms of BDD. Being extremely generous a stupid GP tried to add dysphoria and added dysmorphia instead. Being less generous...

This seems completely backwards to me, as a former anorexic. BDD and eating disorder specialists need to know the signs of gender dysphoria so they can suggest treatments that could help to patients for whom they otherwise have no way of helping.

The entire report at the NHS on suicides after restrictions were placed on puberty blockers left out a high profile suicide death. They manipulated the numbers to get the headlines they wanted to continue banning care.

Today UK health secretary Wes Streeting has put through a permanent ban on prescriptions for puberty blockers for trans children and young people, outside of the research programme planned to start next year.
