People who believe they are “transgender” and take so-called “gender-affirming” hormones are more likely to suffer from serious conditions, such as heart disease, compared to “cisgender” individuals,” according to a new study.
The study published in the European Journal of Endocrinology found that people who identify as “transgender” had a “significantly” higher risk of heart attacks, strokes, and a slew of other serious health conditions (via the New York Post):
The authors used health data from 2,671 trans people in their early to mid-20s living in Denmark.
They then compared the rate of heart disease seen in the trans patients to a control group of 26,700 people.
The increased risk of any type of heart disease was higher in both transgender men and women as compared with the control group, the study found.
Transgender women taking estrogen had a 93% increased risk of heart problems versus control men, and a 73% higher risk when measured against control women.
Transgender men taking testosterone had a 2.2 times increased risk of cardiovascular ailments compared with control men, and a 63% increased risk compared with control women.
High blood pressure and abnormal blood fats were the most common cardiovascular problems observed in the trans study subjects.
The study also found that biological males who believe they are transgender women are up to 95 percent more likely to suffer from heart disease.
“For trans women, hormone treatments such as estrogen will increase fat mass and lower lean body mass, and increased estrogen is usually associated with increased risk of autoimmune disease and inflammation,” Dr. Dorte Glintborg, the lead study author from Denmark’s Odense University Hospital, reportedly wrote.
Townhall previously reported how many left-wing organizations and lawmakers have expressed support for allowing children to undergo this type of so-called “gender affirming care.” One organization in particular, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, was exposed for providing irreversible, experimental transgender surgeries for children because it’s profitable.
Following these shocking revelations, GOP Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance announced legislation that would outlaw transgender surgeries for minors completely.
“Under no circumstances should doctors be allowed to perform these gruesome, irreversible operations on underage children. With this legislation, we have an opportunity to save countless young Americans from a lifetime of suffering and regret,” Vance said of the legislation.
It’s not nice to try to fool Mother Nature.
Lol! Too bad.
And that’s just the trifle over 50% who don’t commit suicide after a few years.
In my opinion the medical profession will have a lot to answer for in the future. They are treating a mental health problem with drugs and surgery. Neither will help the patient and most likely make it worse.
The saddest part is the groups that tell these mentally ill people that indulging in their mental illness will make them better.
Most people do not realize how gruesome these surgeries are. It it not simply the "lopping off" of sex organs, as many believe. It also renders one sterile for life (no ability to reproduce).
If one has the stomach for it, there are YouTube videos that describes the surgery in full detail and even shows it being performed.
Doctors performing this surgery to minors are among the most despicable people on earth.
I’m shocked, shocked I tell you.
Everyone knows you can put a square peg in a round hole . . . er . . . . never mind.
I watched a video of a young woman now de-transitioning from trans-man who warned that no one told her women who take testosterone may very well need a hysterectomy around year 5 as the uterus begins to necrotize. No one told her - no one followed up with test recommendations etc. She just heard about it when a famous trans man almost died because her womb was dying and sepsis occurred.
There is no such thing as a transgender person, only mentally challenged men and women who believe they are the opposite sex.
Not me!
No surprise there.
The progressives faith in these chemicals are astonishing.
Yeah because hormones are for WOMEN! Not ‘womxn’! There is no transitioning.
It’s not nice to try to fool Mother Nature.
********
Also called mucking around with God’s Divine Design.
Fewer babies, fewer Constitution defenders in the future, more dead white people.
That’s what the Commies want.
And your kids for awhile subject to replacement.
More likely? Come on. They are suffering serious mental problem before they even take any hormones.
Good news for a change.
Bill Maher, of all people, put it quite succinctly when he said something to the effect of, “If my son thinks he’s a pirate, should I let a doctor gouge out his eye and amputate a leg?”
