Call on Minister for Health to Urgently Review Tasmanian Gender Service Treatment Guidelines

Following recent statements by Dr Marci Bowers and Dr Erica Anderson, two top US gender medical providers and board members of the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), we are calling on the Tasmanian Health Minister Jeremy Rockcliff to implement a review of current treatment guidelines used by the Tasmanian Gender Service for the treatment of people especially minors who have gender dysphoria incongruence.

Isla MacGregor said, ‘In Abigail Shrier’s recent interview with gender surgeon Dr Marci Bowers and child psychologist Dr Erica Anderson, serious concerns raised by many health professionals in Australia and overseas have been confirmed by two prominent WPATH gender health practitioners’.

Abigail Shrier wrote –

For the first time in the U.S., top gender medical providers collectively acknowledged four facts: early puberty blockade can lead to significant surgical complication and also permanent sexual dysfunction; peer and social media influence do seem to play a role in encouraging the current, unprecedented spike in transgender identification by teen girls; and the World Professional Association of Transgender Health (WPATH) – of which both Bowers Anderson are board members –has been excluding doctors who question current medical protocols to its detriment.’

Dr Marci Bowers also said in the interview –

When you block puberty, the problem is that a lot of the kids are orgasmically naive.  So in other words, if you’ve never had an orgasm pre-surgery and then your puberty’s blocked, it’s very difficult to achieve that afterwards.  And I think that I consider that a big problem, actually.  It’s kind of an overlooked problem that in our informed consent of children undergoing puberty blockers, we’ve in some respects overlooked that a little bit’.

‘Australian and international doctors, including members of the Society for Evidence Based Gender Medicine – https://segm.org/ – who have repeatedly questioned current protocols in Australian gender clinics are finally vindicated by these statements from Bowers and Anderson’.

‘Women Speak Tasmania hopes the statements by members of the board of WPATH will finally result in new guidelines being developed in order to uphold the Hippocratic Oath, “First, do no harm”’, said Isla MacGregor.
