(Missouri Net) One Missouri transgender center is ending care for minors.

Washington University in St. Louis is ending transgender care for minors undergoing gender transition. They cite Missouri’s newly enacted law which prevents a doctor from prescribing or giving cross-sex hormones or puberty-blocking drugs to someone under 18. The bill also bans physicians from performing gender transition surgery on minors.

Patients currently receiving care through the university’s transgender center will be referred to other providers for these services.

WASH U says the legal claim creates an unsustainable liability for health-care professionals, providers, and the university.
