Also known as the SAFE Act—Saving Adolescents from Experimentation Act—this bill would ban the experimental and dangerous practice of giving children puberty-blocking drugs and wrong-sex hormones for the purpose of “gender transitioning.” The SAFE Act would make Ohio the seventh state to ban hospitals and clinics from pushing these dangerous medications on children and to prohibit transgender surgeries on children.
The use of puberty-blocking hormones and wrong-sex hormones in minors can lead to irreversible, permanent, and lifelong sterilization. Surgical interventions lead to permanent disfigurement and scarring, and can also lead to significant complications such as physical and sexual malfunction. There are currently at least seven gender clinics in Ohio that offer these services for patients under the age of 18.
