Gender Transition in Minors. Evidence, Ethics & Medical Risk - Joey Gilbert;Peter A McCullough;Amanda Morrison

Gender Transition in Minors: Evidence, Ethics & Medical Risk examines one of the most contested issues in modern medicine through the lens of evidence, ethics, and law. Attorney Joey Gilbert, Esq. approaches the subject with the rigor of a courtroom inquiry, asking what standard of proof should be required before children are placed on a path toward irreversible medical intervention.

Drawing on peer-reviewed studies, expert testimony, historical context, and emerging clinical concerns, the book explores the foundations of modern gender medicine and the questions now being raised about its practice in minors. With contributions and perspectives from physicians and specialists, including Dr. Peter A. McCullough, M.D., MPH, and child and adolescent psychiatrist Dr. Miriam Grossman, M.D., Gilbert examines the history of gender-transition treatment, the evidence surrounding puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgical procedures, the ethical complexities of informed consent and adolescent development, and the institutional forces shaping standards of care.

Rather than relying on slogans or ideology, Gilbert invites readers to examine the underlying data, competing claims, and medical risks for themselves. The result is a provocative and closely argued book that challenges readers to consider whether today's protocols meet the level of evidence and ethical scrutiny that children deserve.
