YOUTH HEALTH PROTECTION ACT

Summary

The Youth Health Protection Act bars physicians from prescribing or administering puberty‑suppressing medication, cross‑sex hormones, or performing gender‑affirming surgeries on anyone under 18 who is biologically healthy and anatomically normal. It also classifies such interventions as unprofessional conduct subject to disciplinary action and forbids doctors and mental‑health providers from referring minors for these treatments. The bill aims to protect youth health by limiting medical interventions for gender dysphoria.
