People who have been hoodwinked by transgender ideology and the medical establishment telling them to physically damage their own bodies in pursuit of a false identity may have a strong new remedy.

The Department of Justice and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced last week a seismic shift in medicine.

For the first time, a major hospital will open a clinic dedicated to providing health care for people victimized by harmful medical experiments to make them appear like members of the opposite sex.

The Struggles of Detransitioners

While activists claim that teens who suffer from gender dysphoria—the painful and persistent condition of identifying with the gender opposite one’s sex—need experimental medical interventions to prevent suicide, the Department of Health and Human Services concluded there is little evidence for positive impacts from such “treatments” for minors.

Although the full side effects of transgender “medicine” remain unclear, studies have demonstrated concrete harms. One study found that males who identify as transgender and take estrogen in order to appear female face higher risks of infertility, diabetes, testicular and breast cancer, and early death. A Food and Drug Administration study found that suicidal thoughts actually increase among kids who take so-called puberty blockers.

A jury awarded a detransitioner $2 million in a medical malpractice lawsuit in February, and psychiatrists reportedly agreed to pay $3.5 million to settle another detransitioner’s medical malpractice claim this week.

Yet the medical establishment has vigorously championed grotesque interventions, euphemistically branded “gender-affirming care.”

Transgender ideology has spread—particularly among teenage girls—as a social contagion, promoted by schools, YouTube algorithms, and TikTok influencers. Thousands of children and teens across the country have taken experimental hormone “treatments,” and by 2023, surgeons had operated on more than 5,000 minors.

Many of these unfortunate people have since realized the truth. No matter how many hormone shots they take, no matter how many surgeries they undergo, they cannot change their biological sex. The DNA in their cells will still be coded male or female, and their bodies will reflect this, in one way or another.

Women like Chloe Cole, who underwent chemical and surgical alterations to appear male, have rejected that false identity and returned to accepting their biological sex.

But these detransitioners struggle to find doctors who can fully address their struggles.

“After over 5 years of searching I’ve finally found a doctor who wants to help me,” Cole shared on X Wednesday.

She told me that this doctor is an internal medicine specialist who is “not working on autopilot like most docs are.” That makes it hard to find a doctor willing or able to address her struggles.

The health care system manages treatment through the International Classification of Diseases diagnosis codes, but detransitioners remain mostly invisible in this system. Doctors and public policy groups have advocated for detransition codes.

A New Hope for Detransitioners

That’s why it matters so much that Texas Children’s Hospital has agreed to open a special clinic dedicated to detransition care, as part of a settlement with the Justice Department. Under the terms of the agreement, the hospital will pay $10 million to resolve allegations that it submitted false billings to public and private payors to secure insurance coverage for pediatric sex-rejecting procedures, and it will terminate the doctors who arguably violated their Hippocratic Oath by subjecting patients to these harmful procedures.

As the Justice Department announced, the hospital “has committed to establishing the first-of-its-kind clinic dedicated to restorative care for detransitioners.” The clinic will provide free detransition care for its first five years.

Paxton opened an investigation into Texas Children’s in 2022, after determining that sex-rejecting medical procedures may constitute child abuse under Lone Star State law. In June 2023, Gov. Greg Abbott signed a bill banning these procedures statewide.

Texas Children’s framed its decision to settle the case as an attempt to avoid wasting money.

“We are settling to protect our resources from endless and costly litigation,” the hospital said in a statement reported by NBC News. “This settlement will allow us to redirect those precious resources to focus on the life-saving care.”

“The detransition clinic will formalize the supportive, multidisciplinary services we already deliver to all patients who need our care,” the hospital added.

Formalizing detransition services would represent a tremendous step forward for the medical industry.

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said the hospital’s agreement “protects vulnerable children, holds providers accountable, and ensures those harmed receive the care they need.”

The medical profession needs to understand the struggles of detransitioners and how to help them, and a new clinic dedicated to this noble mission will change the game.

The new clinic should bring together endocrinologists (hormone specialists), plastic surgeons, psychiatrists, and obstetricians and gynecologists. Providing care for people in detransition truly is a groundbreaking medical field, and it’s inspiring to see a hospital that once harmed children now pioneer a new way to reverse those harms.
