Sweden is the most left-leaning government in the EU yet banning puberty blockers isn't all that controversial to them

Interesting to see Europe doing some studies on puberty blockers. Can you please send me the studies?

A study from the UK's National Institute for Health and Care Excellence reviews the negative effects of puberty blockers which is what the Swedish National Board of Health cites for their decision to restrict the use of puberty blockers: https://segm.org/NICE_gender_medicine_systematic_review_finds_poor_quality_evidence

Your source you used is published on an Anti-Trans site but maybe it might be the bias they may show that other sites are omitting. But in the end, it was the UK National Institute for Health and Care Excellence that did the research, and they are independent.

I also found that your source isn't the only source that reports the UK's NICE's research on puberty blockers, even The Economist reported the research, which Google didn't show straight away unless typed in specific terms.

Your research isn't wrong but there has been issues with the SEGM when it came to its bias against transgender people.

Nevertheless, regardless of any biases, there are studies that show transitioning minors does have uncertain effects such as hormone problems that affect the development of their bones and it's not unreasonable to wait until adulthood before making a life-changing decision such as transitioning.

Agree, an independent body finding the research says everything. But a leftist may say "but the Conservative Party is in charge". I say "but look at ICAC in many of Australia's states and IBAC in Victoria, Australia".

IBAC and ICAC are independent bodies that crackdown on government corruption within many of Australia's states, however they're going to have a federal branch coming soon called the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC).

When the left think of puberty blocker bans, they think it's all done by "bigoted" Republican governors who "hate transpeople" in Sweden's case, any political parties had nothing to do with the puberty blocker restrictions. The Sweden national board of health is not influenced by any political parties, it is lead by medical experts and scientists doing their research and making decisions independently of any parties in the parliament. The Sweden national health board's decision to restrict puberty blockers was enacted when the leftist Social Democrat Party was in power. Again the party didn't have influence on this decision, it was entirely the health board's own decision and a party leftist as the SDP would've been against such a decision if it was up to them.

So the leftists in Sweden wanted the puberty blockers restricted? Must be something both America and Australia should consider not because of transphobia but must have a good alternative product.

I did not say that the Swedish leftists wanted puberty blockers restricted. It was a decision on behalf of the Sweden National Board of Health which is operated independently regardless of what political party in charge. The National health board made this decision, the National health board is what controls the Healthcare system therefore, they have the authority to restrict puberty blockers regarding of what the political parties in the parliament think. The Healthcare system is governed by the national health board, not parliament. I also agree, American and Australian leftists should realize that puberty blockers do have such harmful effects on kids but unfortunately there are too many biased lgbtq+ 'actvists' who do not want to admit this and go with their biased pro-trans narratives and accuse anyone who disagrees with them of being 'bigoted' and 'transphobic' and come with talking points like "trans kids are valid", "you're just a transphobe" and "you literally want genocide on transpeople".

I guess I have misread what has been said
