Taxpayer-Funded Study On The Effects of “Gender Affirming Care” On Children is HIDDEN Because Of The Results

The results of a government-funded research project showed no mental health improvements for “gender-distressed” children who were put on puberty blockers have been withheld because the project director believes they might be used to stop such treatments.

The US government funded a ten million dollar study where they gave puberty blockers to kids in an effort to prove that it was healthy for kids to be transitioned. The study proved that it wasn’t good for the kids. So they study was hidden.

The Democrats will continue to poison and mutilate children despite knowing they are dead wrong.

We have seen a seismic shift in the medical profession (and scientists and researchers alike.) With the advent of Obamacare (socialized medicine) scientists and doctors became political operatives not doctors.

Question vaccines or the treatment of various diseases and you can lose your medical license like so many doctors did when they tried alternate treatments to Covid than the prescribed government ‘treatment.’

Wow. The US government funded a $9.7 Million dollar study where they gave puberty blockers to kids in an effort to prove that it was healthy for kids to be transitioned. The study proved that it WASN’T good for the kids though.

Now they refuse to release the study because the… pic.twitter.com/nDuuNp0PTa

Well how about that?

Johanna Olson-Kennedy buried her own study that shows puberty blockers DON’T help kids. @elonmusk was right when he called her evil.

/1 The New York Times reported on an unreleased study on the effects of puberty blockers on children.

We recently launched an investigation following @ChildrensHD’s discovery of multi-million dollar Biden-Harris NIH grants to study youth “gender-affirming care.”

Taxpayer-Funded Doctor Studies Puberty Blockers on ‘Trans Kids’ but Hides Results

By: Paul Bois, Breitbart News, October 24, 2024;

A doctor has admitted to withholding publication of a $10 million taxpayer-funded study showing there were no mental health benefits for using puberty blockers on transgender children.

The National Institutes of Health funded a study starting in 2015 that observed 95 children with an average age of 11 taking puberty blockers, which would delay the development of breasts and the deepening of voices.

Transgender advocates have long said giving puberty blockers to children suffering from gender dysphoria would improve their mental health, but the study showed that no such improvement occurred after two years.

Dr. Johanna Olson-Kennedy, who headed the study, claimed the children were in “really good shape when they come in, and they’re in really good shape after two years,” but, as the New York Times noted, her assertion contradicts researchers finding that around one-quarter of study participants “were depressed or suicidal” before receiving treatment.

Roughly nine years after the study was funded, Kennedy admitted to not publishing the research for political reasons. Per the Times:

That conclusion seemed to contradict an earlier description of the group, in which Dr. Olson-Kennedy and her colleagues noted that one quarter of the adolescents were depressed or suicidal before treatment.

In the nine years since the study was funded by the National Institutes of Health, and as medical care for this small group of adolescents became a searing issue in American politics, Dr. Olson-Kennedy’s team has not published the data. Asked why, she said the findings might fuel the kind of political attacks that have led to bans of the youth gender treatments in more than 20 states, one of which will soon be considered by the Supreme Court.

She said that she intends to publish the data, but that the team had also been delayed because the N.I.H. had cut some of the project’s funding. She attributed that cut, too, to politics, which the N.I.H. denied. (The broader project has received $9.7 million in government support to date.)

“I do not want our work to be weaponized,” she said. “It has to be exactly on point, clear and concise. And that takes time.”

Dr. Olson-Kennedy has served as an expert witness in various legal challenges against bans on treatment of transgender children in many states.
