Reports (1)
  • Status is not correct "Gender affirming care is not banned for minors in Austria. The first source given is from 8 years ago and seems to have not even been accurate at the time, while the second source given doesn't even say anything about gender affirming care. The page below is incredibly detailed and states that many trans minors have access to it. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11106449/"
