Protecting Minors from Genital Mutilation and Chemical Castration

This act introduces new federal laws prohibiting gender-affirming surgeries, genital mutilation, and chemical castration for minors. Its purpose is to safeguard children from medical procedures not essential for their physical health. Citizens should be aware that the law specifies which medical interventions are permitted and which are forbidden for individuals under 18 years of age.
Key points
Prohibits gender-affirming surgeries for individuals under 18, including mastectomies, hysterectomies, orchiectomies, and other surgical procedures.
Bans chemical castration of minors, including the administration of puberty blockers and sex hormones in doses unnatural for their biological sex.
Exceptions are made for medical procedures necessary for a minor's physical health, such as treating congenital anomalies, injuries, diseases, or in cases of intersex conditions.
Individuals performing prohibited procedures may face fines or imprisonment for up to 10 years.
