Testosterone to transition women to trans men are far worse than claimed. The left is pushing back on funding/services cuts to transing kids etc.
I have watched interviews and testimonies of ‘detransitioners’ - those who transed and regretted it.
Many of the regrets are medical impacts of which they were never told.
For women, they aren’t told that if they take testosterone, they may need a hysterectomy in about 5 years.You’d think their doctors would tell them that - but no because there’s big money in making people dependent on medical services for life. At the very least, a physician with a conscience would schedule them for follow ups to make sure they are safe from necrosis etc.
One of the ‘famous trans’ was the first to go public with that side effect. She had a medical crisis/sepsis/emergency hysterectomy to save her life because 5 years of testosterone caused her uterus to ‘die’ (necrosis) and she didn’t know it until she was near death.
Autoimmune illnesses as a result of cross sex hormones are common - which makes sense because the chemistry of changing sex could confuse the body (partial chemistry of DNA sex inherent in the body in opposition with cross sex hormones).
Horrible problems for both men and women. Male to female trans talk about osteoporosis and some can’t resume taking common testosterone because the body rejects it, but they are trying to get off estrogen for health reasons so they are caught in the middle.
From all that I have seen, it’s leftists taking advantage of people with mental illness (something that several detransers say they have) and scaring them emotionally, chemically and surgically. When people realize it’s destroying their health, and detransers say they now realize that it doesn’t work - they never ‘arrived’ to become the opposite gender and they still have all the problems they tried to escape by becoming trans in the first place, these people describe very painful problems resuming life as either sex, they don’t fit in and the people willing to date them are far and few between. The women who took testosterone can’t change their voices back to feminine so even if they return to looking female, they are often saddled with a purely masculine voice and irreversible male pattern baldness, among other problems.
One trans woman (DNA male) kept saying that he doesn’t know what the future holds because the whole trans thing has no medical research to answer heath questions and they are just being experimented on. There are those who insist it’s medically documented but when investigators dig in, the research is distorted, in adequate if and when any such research exists.
Sadly - the intake process for these people often includes medical notes in their records documenting trauma/sexual abuse/mental health issues, but those ailments are ignored and the victims are told that their personal problems are really because they are the wrong sex and if they just go through transition they will finally find peace, fit in etc. It sounds like medical hell and it’s permanent. They are often told during the trans process that if they don’t like it, it’s all reversible. It’s not. The worst complications are surgical and some have to go in for one corrective surgery after another, each with dangerous complications and costs.
One man who was detransitioning from trans woman back to DNA male said that after urinating, he would leak urine for an hour and that no one told him when he transed that he would end up smelling like urine wherever he went.

Negative effects of homosexual relations
And "in 2019, among transgender adults and adolescents, the largest percentage (93%) of diagnoses of HIV infections was for transgender MTF. And in 2019, diagnoses of HIV infection among adolescent and young adult males (85%) and females (12%) accounted for approximately 97% of HIV diagnoses (Table 8b") (https://www.cdc.gov/hiv/basics/statistics.html; https://web.archive.org/web/20210707083722/https://www.cdc.gov/hiv/library/reports/hiv-surveillance/vol-32/content/special-focus-profiles.html)
In a Danish study of "6,657,456 Danish-born individuals who were at least 15 years old and lived in Denmark from January 1980 through December 2021," in which "3,759 (52.5% assigned male at birth) were identified as transgender at a median age of 22," "there were 92 suicide attempts, 12 suicides, and 245 suicide-unrelated deaths among this group." "Among over 6.6 million individuals, standardized suicide attempt rates per 100,000 person-years were 498 for those who were transgender compared with 71 per 100,000 person-years for those who were not transgender."
"Transgender individuals also had higher rates of mortality not related to suicide (aIRR 1.9, 95% CI 1.6-2.2) and higher rates of all-cause mortality (aIRR 2.0, 95% CI 1.7-2.4) compared with non-transgender individuals." (https://www.medpagetoday.com/)
"Transgender women [worldwide] are 49 times more likely to have HIV than other adults of reproductive age." (https://www.who.int/hiv/topics/transgender/en/)
Transgender women have a higher risk of venous thromboembolism, stroke and meningioma compared to cisgender men and cisgender women. Compared to cisgender men, transgender women have a higher risk of breast cancer and transgender women > 50 years old have a higher risk of fractures.
(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32757514/) LGBTQ and transgender persons medically serious attempts at suicide are 4 times more likely among LGBTQ youth than other young people. (https://save.org/about-suicide/suicide-facts/)
LGBQ young people are more than twice as likely to feel suicidal, and over four times as likely to attempt suicide, compared to heterosexual youth (Kann 2016)
In a 2016-2017 survey from the Human Rights Campaign Foundation, 28 percent of LGBTQ youth — including 40 percent of transgender youth — said they felt depressed most or all of the time during the previous 30 days, compared to only 12 percent of non-LGBTQ youth (HRC Foundation 2017: https://suicidepreventionlifeline.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/LGBTQ_MentalHealth_OnePager.pdf)
A large study also found that of 10,270 transgender patients identified, approximately 58% of transgender patients had at least one DSM-5 diagnosis compared with 13.6% of cisgender patients, indicating transgenders had about 4.5 times higher rate of psychiatric illness than straight persons. (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6830528/)
Psychiatric disorders were more prevalent among homosexually active people compared with heterosexually active people. Homosexual men had a higher 12-month prevalence of mood disorders and anxiety disorders than heterosexual men. Homosexual women had a higher 12-month prevalence of substance use disorders than heterosexual women. (https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapsychiatry/fullarticle/481699)
The suicide attempt rate among transgender persons ranges from 32% to 50% across surveyed countries. Fifty percent of transgender persons in Australia have attempted suicide at least once in their lives.[12] In England, 48% of the transgender young people had attempted suicide at least once in their lives.[13] The prevalence of suicide remains high among transgender persons irrespective of disclosing their transgender status to others and undergoing sex reassignment surgery.[8] (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5178031)
"41% of trans adults said they had attempted suicide, in one study. The same study found that 61% of trans people who were victims of physical assault had attempted suicide." (https://save.org/about-suicide/suicide-facts/)
(Note that compassion toward such is to be shown, while the high suicide rate among LGBTQ persons is blamed on societal rejection, yet in the West it is actually those who oppose homosexual relations that face the most widespread persecution, and minorities such as evangelical Christians face great persecution worldwide without being suicidal.)
In 2017 almost 35% of high school students who identified as transgender reported attempting suicide in the last 12 months (versus 9.% of straights), and almost 44% considered attempting it. Transgender students were much more likely to have ever had engaged in sexual relations than were cisgender (straight) females (43.1% versus 33.2%), and with more persons, while almost 15% reported their first act was before age 13 years vs. 1.5% for straights.
Approximately 41% of transgender people attempt suicide at least once in their lives compared to the rate of 5% in the general population.

Almost 23% of transgender students reported they had experienced sexual dating violence, with approx. 26% reporting it has being physical. In addition, 70% reported lifetime alcohol, use, Ecstasy 31.6% cocaine 27.2%, heroin 26.1%, methamphetamines 24.9%, and prescription opioid misuse 35.9% respectively.

And homosexual relations have been tragically primarily responsible for approx. 80% of new HIV cases among men and over 700,000 American deaths, though such is not even the decisive reason why homosexual relations are wrong.
Yet there is still room at the cross for all who will come to God in repentance and faith, and trust in the Divine Son of God sent by the Father, the risen Lord Jesus, to save them on His account, by His sinless shed blood, and thus be baptized and live for Him. Acts 10:36-47
