This is, unfortunately, become very typical with hot button political issues in medicine these days. The University of Washington was aware of the false claims regarding the “study”, as well as its questionable credibility as well….yet they said nothing.

"Included among the articles that were published were arguments that dogs engage in rape culture and that men could reduce their transphobia by anally penetrating themselves with sex toys, as well as Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf rewritten in feminist language.[2][4] The first of these had won special recognition from the journal that published it."
Special recognition = Pulitzer prize?
…….how this would ever, ever get published is very telling as well. It served a narrative for the Left media. And they knew only some would learn it was false, and it would be after the push to their cause was achieved.
This study was terrible. Even so, they actually found that their treatments didn’t help whatsoever, but the. Claimed that they did.

Like other words, that has lost all meaning and worth. I hear “expert” now and just tune out anything that comes after it.
2 hour eval by a team associated with the doctor profiting from the surgery.
Our medical profession is gruesome.
And please never bring up penis envy.
It’s like we are collectively acting out the entire Freudian theory about the human developmental process that we staunchly deny
Conclusions
Our study provides quantitative evidence that access to PBs or GAHs in a multidisciplinary gender-affirming setting was associated with mental health improvements among TNB youths over a relatively short time frame of 1 year. The associations with the highest aORs were with decreased suicidality, which is important given the mental health disparities experienced by this population, particularly the high levels of self-harm and suicide. Our findings have important policy implications, suggesting that the recent wave of legislation restricting access to gender-affirming care19 may have significant negative outcomes in the well-being of TNB youths.20 Beyond the need to address antitransgender legislation, there is an additional need for medical systems and insurance providers to decrease barriers and expand access to gender-affirming care.

Note the important improvement in 'Suicidality' measures in the report...a critical objective in Transgender care.
More mis-information stemming from Baron's inability to conduct any honest research before posting...added to his reliance on "Conservative Talk Radio"....what other outcome were you expecting? The only question is 'Where will he strike next?" ;-).

Most will not regain it. The academy is a lost cause.
the majority. This is shameful. They have been co-opted our credibility for political purposes.
