It is not clear what the Legislature is expecting to discover that would diverge from the findings of these three respected bodies, nor is it clear if they will abide by the recommendations made, as lawmakers have not been responsive to current guidelines established by authoritative medical organizations.
Second, closer regulation of the provision of HRT is likely to lead to a dearth of providers in Utah who are able to prescribe HRT.

compared to both LGB people and the broader public. Thus, although bill may succeed in regulating the practice of HRT, it is unlikely to succeed in ensuring the safe practice of HRT.— is likely to lead toand risk for suicide for transgender teens in Utah.
You do see the oxymoron in 'gender affirming surgery', right?
A very well written letter will fall on deaf ears.
This is probably the grossest thing the Trib has ever posted and that’s saying something.
Perhaps we should institute “diet affirming care” for children and just feed them endless candy and popcorn. After all, children know whats best for them and I’m sure studies would show children were much happier after getting to eat candy all day.
Pedophiles and groomers. Every one of you
The same kind of “scientists” who said the Covid non-vaccine was safe an effective? The actual science is that no one can change genders no matter how they choose to mutilate themselves and doing this to minors is clearly evil abhorrent child abuse.
I would like to see the science that says mutilating a child's body and denying their gender does any substantial or long term good. I suspect the science will say otherwise. Is it loving a child to turn him or her into a permanent medical patient? Is it love to lie to them?
You act like you and the medical associations know more than our legislatures. I'm sure they got their information from a higher authority.
Like most Republican's, Utah voters are just happy to vote for the politicians that hate all the same people they do. It's easy here are since Utah is dominated by one religion AND the extreme wing of today's GOP.

The old follow the science argument.
Thank you Utah law makers. Respect the age of consent. Have children wait to consider sex change drugs and surgeries until they are adults.
So you want people like me to listen to a gay psych professor and a psych grad student? Do you even realize how out of touch you are in Utah, ? Lmao
🤮 get this filthy out of my state.
