13,944 Gender Reassignment Procedures On Minors. Here's Why they Do It.


Nearly 14,000 minors nationwide have had gender reassignment procedures performed on them in the past four years, according to a new first-of-its-kind database published Tuesday.

Do No Harm, a coalition of 13,000 doctors, nurses, physicians, and concerned citizens across all 50 states and 14 countries, created the database as part of its mission “to safeguard healthcare from ideological threats.”

The study examines gender reassignment procedures – such as puberty/hormone blockers and gender reassignment surgeries like mastectomies and penile reconstruction – performed on minors (under 18), including one seven-year-old child.

Be informed, not misled.

“With the launch of the Stop the Harm Database, Do No Harm is building on our mission to expose the dangers of experimental pediatric gender medicine and bring the practice to an end,” Do No Harm Chairman Dr. Stanley Goldfarb said in a press release.

Procedures and the amount of money made.

This is an overview of what the doctors have discovered:

Key National Findings (2019 to 2023):

  • 13,994 children received sex change-related treatments.
  • 5,747 sex change surgeries performed on children
  • 4,160 breast removal procedures on minors.
  • 660 phalloplasty procedures.
  • 62,682 hormone and puberty blocker prescriptions written for 8,579 pediatric patients.
  • At least $119,791,202 was made from sex change treatments performed on minors.

Demographics.

Not surprisingly, California had the highest number of total procedures (2,083) on minors. On a per capita basis, however, Oregon had the most gender reassignment procedures performed on minors (one per 899 persons), while Hawaii had the fewest (one per 291,054), according to a map of the study’s data produced by The Center Square.

Top 10 Most Gender Reassignment Procedures Performed on Minors (Per Capita, 2019-23)

  1. Oregon 899
  2. Vermont 6,183
  3. Washington 1,082
  4. Delaware 8,918
  5. Massachusetts 9,790
  6. New Hampshire 10,678
  7. Ohio 11,568
  8. Michigan 13,053
  9. Alaska 13,334
  10. Maine 13,761

Seattle Children's Hospital is among the top in nation for gender reassignment surgeries.



The Center Square says that "Seattle Children’s Hospital has a gender clinic and describes itself as “the only pediatric academic medical center with fellowship-trained plastic surgeons who provide gender-affirming surgery in our region," though genital surgeries are restricted to those 18 or older.
According to its website, they accept new patients ages 9 to 17.75 “at the time of referral who have already started puberty,” while those 17.75 or older and patients who have not yet started puberty are “directed to community resources.” Parental or guardian consent is required for treatments unless the patient is an emancipated minor.

The gender clinic also partners with the hospital’s autism center “to coordinate care for children and teens with autism and related social challenges.”

Earlier this year, doctors from Seattle Children’s Hospital released a paper arguing that “withholding GAC (gender affirming care) is harmful to children and amounts to state-sanctioned medical neglect and emotional abuse.”

Texas 2023

Last year (2023), Christopher Rufo published an important article titled "They're Wanting to Play God."

He began with, "Last week, I worked with a whistleblower to expose the child sex-change program at Texas Children’s Hospital. Executives had promised to stop such procedures, but, as the medical records demonstrate, this was not done—doctors secretly continued to provide puberty blockers and other hormones to children between the ages of 11 and 17."

I talked about this on our daily radio program at the time.

Rufo continued, "Within days of the story’s publication, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton launched an official investigation, saying that 'children are not to be treated as science experiments.' And state legislators secured the votes to pass a bipartisan bill, SB 14, that would outlaw all so-called 'gender-affirming care' for minors."

He said, "Now, a new whistleblower has come forward with allegations against Dr. Richard Ogden Roberts, one of the leaders of TCH’s child sex-change program. The whistleblower is a medical professional who has spent a significant amount of time observing Roberts working with gender-dysphoric patients and their families."

This detailed article is built around Christopher Rufo's questions to the Whistleblower.

Deep in the interview, Rufo asks, "How do you feel observing this?"

The Whistleblower responded: "I’m absolutely sick to my stomach. Absolutely just devastated. Literally, sometimes I have to go outside and cry, because, I don’t mean to be dramatic, but I truly feel like there is a demonic presence at my workplace. And I’m so 100 percent against this whole ideology and this movement of children just feeling like they were born in the wrong body and then being “affirmed” by adults who want to take advantage of them and make a buck. Transgender medicine is hugely lucrative. It’s like $70,000 to $80,000 dollars per kid if they go through with the whole thing—all the pharmacology drugs, all these companies that are making millions of dollars.

Indeed they were. 

Indeed, they are.

I repeat. The best estimate of how much money was being made by 2023 was at least $119,791,202.

Takeaway

Forbes Magazine says, "Trans-tech is a budding industry with an enormous opportunity. Our estimates place the average cost of transition at $150,000 per person. Multiply that by an estimated population of 1.4 million transgender people, we’re talking about a market in excess of $200 Billion. That is significant. That’s larger than the entire film industry. Transition is expensive."

Indeed it is.

They are destroying children's lives while chasing the $200 billion gold ring.

Kamala Harris has now promised that if elected, she will provide transgender surgeries to all illegals who want them.

Another $50 or $100 billion for the pharmacy and medical industry?

May God forgive us.
