UK bans puberty blockers for children indefinitely, citing ‘unacceptable safety risk’

The United Kingdom government announced on Wednesday that it would continue to ban the prescription of puberty-blockers for children younger than 18 years old, citing “unacceptable risks.”

The American medical establishment still maintains the practice of castrating, mutilating and medicating children to make them appear to be the other gender than their biological gender.

The Federalist reported that Terry Schilling of the American Principles Project, the president of the American Principles Project told them: “Every executive in the U.S. health care industry should pay very close attention to the important move made by left-wing politicians in Britain to protect children against the dangers associated with puberty blocking drugs.” By continuing to offer these dangerous and experimented sex-change treatments to minors you are complicit.

He added, “Stop and stop providing these harmful procedures or you will face future financial damages due to class actions and malpractice suits.” “Preserve your documents. “Justice will be served.”

The U.K. government Commission on Human Medicines has found that prescribing puberty-blockers to children poses a “currently unacceptable safety risk.” However, they have stated that the drugs will be only available to the National Health Service for clinical trials. These drugs were given to children routinely to treat gender dysphoria.

The ban is in place for England, Wales and Scotland. The U.K. officials were worried Northern Ireland would not support the measure and turn it into a back door to obtain the drugs. However, it eventually joined the ban.

This move follows the Cass Review report, a pediatrician’s April report, in which Dr. Hilary Cass found “remarkably weak” support for chemical interventions on children, and concluded that their use could “change [the] trajectory of psychosexual development and gender identity.”

The Federalist reported that unlike American medical authorities, English authorities had conducted a thorough review of research and evidence supporting the use of puberty-blockers by minors. Paul Dupont is the communications director for APP. The fact that they recommended a ban despite the intense lobbying of the far left shows how bad these drugs really are.

Victoria Atkins , the then Health Secretary of the Conservative Party in May, placed a ban on these drugs. The left-wing Labour Party has redoubled its efforts to ban these drugs. Current Health Secretary Wes Streeting announced in July that he plans to ban them permanently for children.

Streeting said that the Commission was concerned about whether the children and families had been given enough time and information so they could give their consent in full. He also referred to as a “scandal” the way the drugs were prescribed for children.

Dupont stated, “Even in the U.K. and other countries, the political left sees the severity of this malpractice.” “Very soon, Democrats may be the only ones supporting this horrible malpractice.”

Last week, the battle to ban harmful drugs in the United States hit a new high. The attorney general of Tennessee defended his state’s ban on transition drugs and surgeries at the U.S. Supreme Court. Sen. Roger Marshall , R-Kan. , introduced a bill that would ban the mutilation of children and chemical castration.

Justice Samuel Alito, in his oral argument last Thursday, dismantled the claims of far-left activists, who cite fake suicide statistics to support their claim that these drugs are safe and even “lifesaving.” He cited the Cass Review as well as several other Western European countries which have reached similar conclusions.

Alito said that the Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare had written the following: “They currently assess that the risks of gender-affirming treatments and puberty blockers are likely to exceed the expected benefits of those treatments.” This was in direct contradiction to the broad statement made by the petition. Elizabeth Prelogar was the Solicitor-General who regurgitated leftist lies in court. After the filing of your request, we were all aware of the Cass Report in the United Kingdom. This report found that there was no high-quality evidence to support the claims made in court.

The U.S. House of Representatives passed the National Defense Authorization Act on Wednesday by a vote of 281 to 140. included a defunding of transgender procedures in military families for minors.

The medical industry is increasingly aware of its massive profits in trapping children into an irreversible medical path that requires drugs and surgery for the rest a person’s life.

It is for this reason, that Schilling has previously pointed out, that there is a concerted attempt in schools and other places to encourage children who claim to be transgender to do so: They can increase exponentially the number of patients, and make a huge amount of money by running brutal medical tests on America’s young people.

At this dangerous time for journalism in Virginia

We hope you appreciated this article. Before you close this tab, we want to ask if you could support All Virginia News at this challenging time for independent journalism in the Commonwealth.

Virginia is currently governed by a Democratic trifecta—Governor Abigail Spanberger in the Executive Mansion, Democrats holding majorities in both the House of Delegates and the Senate, along with key leadership positions held by figures such as Lt. Governor Ghazala Hashmi, Attorney General Jay Jones, House Speaker Don Scott, and others. In any period of one-party dominance, the risk of reduced transparency and accountability grows. A strong, independent press is essential to scrutinize those in power, regardless of party affiliation.

Across the nation and here in Virginia, press freedom faces real pressures: from political threats and regulatory actions to corporate influence and economic challenges that can compromise editorial independence. When government officials—whether in Richmond or Washington—attempt to shape coverage through pressure, investigations, funding decisions, or favoritism, it undermines public trust and democratic health.

All Virginia News exists to serve Virginia readers first. We are not owned by billionaires or large corporations with political agendas. Our commitment is straightforward: deliver factual, thorough reporting that holds every elected official accountable—Democrat, Republican, or independent—without fear or favor. We believe democracy functions best with a robust, independent press that provides Virginians the full picture, free from partisan spin.

What sustains us through these challenges is the direct support of our readers. A majority of our funding comes from individuals like you who value trustworthy, paywall-free journalism. Your contributions preserve our editorial independence and allow us to continue aggressive, non-partisan oversight of state government, policies, and their impact on Virginia families.

We know these requests are never as welcome as the reporting itself, but without reader support, this work simply could not continue. Of course, we understand that not everyone is in a position to contribute financially, and we remain grateful for your readership either way.

If you are able, please support All Virginia News today. All gifts matter, but recurring contributions are especially valuable as they help us plan and sustain our coverage long-term (and reduce the frequency of these appeals). It takes just a moment to give. Thank you for standing with independent journalism and helping protect a free press that serves all Virginians.
