💨 Abstract

The article discusses new recommendations for transgender children's healthcare in the UK, which include extensive mental and physical health screenings, including screening for neurodevelopmental conditions like autism and ADHD. The author, a neurodivergent and non-binary person, expresses concern that these screenings reinforce the belief that being trans is caused by external factors or that a gender-questioning child is wrong about their identity because of their autism.
