Women's Health Grant Funding Castration Study.
[HotAir] We keep being told that The Science™ behind so-called "gender-affirming care" is settled.

Treating children with puberty blockers, hormones, and mutilating surgeries is the path to curing gender dysphoria and giving unhappy children happy, healthy, and longer lives. Failing to do these things is committing genocide.
Except studies show most are never happy. Johns Hopkins quit doing those surgeries years ago because of the high suicide rate among recipients.
The high suicide rate not significantly different than those who were not treated surgically.
Yeah, right.

Well, the National Institutes of Health is seeking volunteers for a study into the effects of castration on the human body because, well, the effects of removing testicles "has not been extensively studied."
How much are they paying? I haven't used mine in years.
Not that any studies are needed, you understand. We already know through the processes of reading tea leaves and the entrails of sacrificed animals that lopping off healthy body parts does a body good, but just in case there might be a detail or two, such as cardiovascular problems, the NIH thinks doing a study might be a good idea.

Studies are kinda fun, you know. And you might just get a free castration!

The National Institutes of Health is funding a study via a women’s health grant that is recruiting people as young as 18 to uncover what it acknowledges as the "unknown" cardiovascular effects of surgically removing testicles on patients diagnosed with gender dysphoria.

The observational study is looking for 30 gender diverse biological male participants who are interested in the orchiectomy procedure, which has also been referred to as "surgical castration" in medical literature.

The chief investigator is Dr. Sean Iwamoto, an Assistant Professor of Medicine at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus.
