A California pediatrician for transgender kids has admitted that the puberty blockers and hormones she gives her young patients may lead to bone disease or leave them infertile, DailyMail.com can reveal.
Dr Erin Baroni, a pediatrician and instructor at UCLA, who styles herself as TikTok's 'QueerMD', addressed the drawbacks in a private online workshop for medical students, which DailyMail.com was able to attend.
The side effects of these drugs on young patients are known, but the doctors who prescribe them seldom publicly discuss the downsides, which have become a hot-button issue in US politics.
In the seminar, Dr Baroni said puberty blockers can weaken a trans patients' bones and cause osteoporosis, while cross-sex hormones can leave both boys and girls infertile.
'With the bone density concerns and fertility issues … we don't see these as things that are contraindications to treatment or something that really impedes treatment,' Dr Baroni told the students.
We 'try to outline what we might be monitoring: risks, benefits, reversible, irreversible things, and really have a thoughtful conversation about things from a true medical and study standpoint,' she added.
The Los Angeles-based doctor said osteoporosis and infertility may be outweighed by a trans patient's other needs.
Patients could be at risk of suicide or unable to attend school due to their gender issues, she said.

It’s called malpractice.
"Malpractice" implies damage caused by a mistake or negligence. What these filthbags do to children are calculated, horrifying mutilations.
I put these transgender butchers right up there with abortionists.
They prey on the young.
That’s a sacrifice that the Satanist child mutilators are willing to make.
These Frankenstein freaks doing NAZI experiments on children.
Another one who must have slept through the lecture on The Hippocratic Oath.
And this is a surprise?
Puberty blockers are only necessary for a small subset of the population to stem the effects of a hyperactive endocrine system prior to the onset of puberty. It prevents premature menarche and premature bone maturation.
That’s it.
The rest is butchery.
Yeah cutting off your wang can make you infertile..
Looks like a dude.
Of course they can.
So just why are doctors deliberately doing that which they know will harm the patient?
