With over 100,000 patients studied, the results are stark. Depression rates doubled among men who underwent surgery. Anxiety rates skyrocketed. The facts are clear, but the push to normalize and fund these surgeries continues, ignoring the long-term damage they cause.
Huge Study Says Transgender Surgery Doubles Depression Rates
Transgender surgery raises the rates of depression, suicidal impulses, anxiety, and drug addiction, a huge new study says.
Yet the study’s authors concluded that governments should just spend more on the “mental health” of patients to offset the damage of transgender therapies.
The study is another blow for transgender activists and friendly judges who insist that transgender medical treatments be funded by taxpayers because the treatments are supposedly life-saving forms of self-expression. That argument is fundamental in the activists’ fight against current efforts by the federal government and state governments to protect children and youths from transgender advocacy.
The study of 107,583 patients posted in the Journal of Sexual Medicine reported that depression doubled among men who underwent transgender surgery: “Males with surgery showed a higher prevalence of depression (25.4% vs. 11.5%, RR 2.203, P<0.0001) and anxiety (12.8% vs. 2.6%, RR 4.882, P<0.0001).”
