Detransitioning Is This a Growing Phenomenon?
The number of young people who identify as transgender has nearly doubled in recent years. Some people say this is because the transgender community is more embraced, but others say teens are rushing to get medical treatments without counseling or knowing the facts. In some extreme cases, this can even lead to what's called "detransition." As a teen, Ryan transitioned from a female to a male but says she then realized she made an epic mistake, reversed her decision, and detransitioned to be female again. Over 20 years ago, Kara had medical treatments and later gender reassignment surgery and says policy has greatly changed. She says it's concerning that today, there are far less requirements for children seeking puberty blockers, hormone therapy, and surgery. However, Reece says he knew he was male as a small child, and these medical treatments saved his life as a teen. He says denying teens the right to these procedures is "trans genocide." Eli Erlick, Founder of Trans Student Educational Resources, adds that the percentage of people who detransition is small and the number one reason for detransitioning is transphobia. Neurologist and author of "The End of Gender" Dr. Debra Soh studies this issue and says social acceptance is good, but the number of transitions have reflected people's skewed thinking. And, NewsNation Correspondent Rich McHugh weighs in to discuss what he has found after a lengthy investigation on the increased numbers of teen transitions in recent years.
