Summary
The bill bars licensed health‑care providers from prescribing puberty‑blocking drugs, high‑dose hormones, or performing gender‑affirming surgeries on minors, unless the treatment is for a medically verified disorder of sex development or other narrow medical exceptions. It defines “minor” as anyone under 18 and “sex” as biological characteristics, aiming to limit gender‑transition care for youths.
