I was a kid same as u i have 18 years of experience being a complete dumbass (i suspect u have significantly more than me) im neither but said docters in multiple countries have advised against it citing the fact they are ineffective for a majority ofcases.
As for small government isnt that one of the thibgs the american right wingers go on about? I dont know a lot about the concept feel free to enlighten me any good YouTube's cover it?
I dont really care what the practising doctors say i care what the published peer reviewed docters say i they say its ineffective at achieving its goals of reduced harm.
At what point in your childhood were you so sure that you were not the gender that matches your biological sex that suicide was not an insignificant consideration due to the lack of support?
If u went and read the meta study commissioned by the nhs that reviewed all the literature on the topic you would find that gender modifying treatments are mostly ineffective at reducing self harm anxiety and suicide.
Yes, you have already been shown by others why your meta-study, which predates the study the article I linked to discusses, is both faulty and doesn't make the argument you think it makes.
You should be aware that when new information replaces old information in science, you should defer to the new information. You are doing the opposite.
You're still nowhere near the expertise of doctors who go through nedical school for a decade or more and some even write papers for those peer reviewed journals. And some of their doctor peers review those papers before publishing journals.
Nobody is going to listen to you or some insurance company bean counter about medical advice over a qualified medical professional. They certainly should make it illegal for insurance companies to deny care contradicting doctors.
If there is anyone who knows anything it is the insurance companies. Thats their literal job to calculate the risks of something costly with heigh accuracy so they can put a price on it thus distributing a large single cost across many people as a small regular cost. If an insurance company doeant want to do somthing hiatory would tell us there is a damn good reason why.
