Rachel Levine Backed Transgender Chemical Castration

Pennsylvania Health Secretary Rachel Levine, President Joe Biden's pick for assistant secretary of health at the Department of Health and Human Services, has long defended experimental transgender "Treatments" for children.

In 2017, Levine recommended cross-sex hormones for children in their mid-teens.

"So what if you're going through the wrong puberty? What if you're a transgender young woman - meaning male to female - and now your voice is dropping, you're getting bigger, you're getting hair everyone, and you're growing those [testicles]. And what if you're a transgender young man, and now you have breast development you're experiencing, it's terrifying," Levine argued.

The treatment supposedly ensures "That they never go through the wrong puberty. That way for a transgender woman, male to female, their voice doesn't drop, they don't have hair for a transgender man, they don't have breast development, they don't have periods."

Children with gender dysphoria are extremely unlikely to continue in that condition after puberty without medical interventions like "Puberty-blockers." Many realize they are not transgender, but instead gay or lesbian - like detransitioner Charlotte Evans, who launched a network for formerly transgender people.

Men and women who formerly identified as transgender and underwent surgery have grown to reject transgender identity and lament the damage they did to their own bodies.

Children who undergo such "Treatments" often persist in transgender identity and lose their ability to have children later in life, so some refer to cross-sex hormones and "Puberty blockers" as "Chemical castration."
