Review Finds No Evidence of Increased Youth Suicides After Puberty Blocker Ban

Government-commissioned report criticizes claims and calls for sensitive handling of the issue in public discourse.

Professor Louis Appleby's review found no significant rise in suicide rates among young gender dysphoria patients at the Tavistock clinic.
The report highlights the dangers of using suicide statistics irresponsibly in public debates.
Claims of increased suicides were based on selective and insufficient evidence, according to the review.
Appleby emphasizes the need for compassionate, evidence-based care for gender-questioning youth.
The discussion of this issue on social media has been labeled as insensitive and potentially harmful.
