Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is doubling down on her government’s proposal to ban puberty blockers for youth aged 15 and under, referencing a recent decision made by England’s National Health Service.
In a policy document published on Tuesday, the NHS said it has concluded “that there is not enough evidence to support the safety or clinical effectiveness of (puberty suppressing hormones) to make the treatment routinely available at this time.”
Smith said Wednesday that there is “increasing international evidence” indicating that there is no consensus amongst the medical community about puberty blockers.
