These are just a small sampling of credible journal articles, research studies, reviews of the literature and additional resources to gain more information about gender affirming healthcare. When deciding if this is something you and your child want to explore, it is vital that you are informed with the best science based information available.
In this current political climate and given the level of negative rhetoric about trans people, and trans kids in particular, I encourage you to consider your sources and whether information is being distorted, omitted and/or selected with the goal of fitting a specific narrative. This includes being mindful of potential bias when getting information from social media and our current CDC, and other government entities, that oppose transgender healthcare and deny the existence of transgender identities and therefore, only provide information to support this.
