Several major hospitals in the US have stopped providing gender-affirming care to individuals under 19 in response to Donald Trump's executive order threatening to withhold federal funding from hospitals offering such treatments. The order prohibits puberty blockers, hormone therapy, and surgical procedures for transgender youth under 19. Hospitals like Virginia Commonwealth University Health, Children's National Hospital in Washington DC, and Denver Health in Colorado have suspended gender-affirming care procedures for minors to comply with the order. NYU Langone in New York City and Lurie Children's Hospital in Chicago are also reviewing the order's impact on their services.
