<p>A powerful doctor who believes in pushing controversial <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/transgender" target="_blank" rel="noopener">transgender</a> procedures onto children is withholding a taxpayer-funded study that she conducted because the results do not support her far-Left agenda.</p>
<p>The New York Times <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/23/science/puberty-blockers-olson-kennedy.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> that physician Johanna Olson-Kennedy started the multi-million dollar study in 2015 after she recruited nearly a hundred children from across the country to participate.</p>
<p>The children were given puberty blockers in hopes that the drugs would &#8220;stave off the permanent physical changes — like breasts or a deepening voice — that could exacerbate their gender distress, known as dysphoria,&#8221; the report said.</p>
<p>The children were monitored for two years to see if the treatments improved their mental health, the report said.</p>
<p>Researchers found that the puberty blockers &#8220;did not lead to mental health improvements,&#8221; the report said.</p>
<p>Olson-Kennedy claimed to the newspaper: “They’re in really good shape when they come in, and they’re in really good shape after two years.”</p>
<p><b><a href="https://www.amiracist.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.amiracist.com/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1729077615157000&amp;usg=AOvVaw17Kprl74oE9DYOLREdiBPU">MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ COMING TO DAILYWIRE+ OCT. 28</a></b></p>
<p>However, her explanation of why the study did not produce the results she wanted is contradicted by what she and other researchers said at the start of the trial when they concluded &#8220;one quarter of the adolescents were depressed or suicidal before treatment,&#8221; the report said.</p>
<p>Olson-Kennedy’s team has not published the data from the study that began nine years ago because &#8220;the findings might fuel the kind of political attacks that have led to bans of the youth gender treatments in more than 20 states,&#8221; the report said.</p>
<p>“I do not want our work to be weaponized,” she said.</p>
<p>She did not want the findings from the study to be included in court cases where people are fighting to protect children from the destructive life-altering drugs and procedures, the report said.</p>
<p>She claims that she is going to publish the data eventually, but claims that she can&#8217;t right now because the NIH has cut some of its funding, the report said. She claimed that the funding was cut for political reasons, which the NIH said was not true.</p>
<p>Amy Tishelman, a clinical and research psychologist at Boston College who was one of the study’s original researchers, told the Times that the information needed to be published: “I understand the fear about it being weaponized, but it’s really important to get the science out there.”</p>
<p>Dr. Hilary Cass, a pediatrician who conducted an extensive review this year of transgender services in England, said that the delay in publishing the results had led the public to think that the treatments were safe and effective &#8220;even though scant evidence backed up that conclusion,&#8221; the report said.</p>
<p>England’s National Health Service (NHS) <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/nhs-england-permanently-bans-puberty-blockers-from-being-prescribed-to-minors" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced</a> in March that it was banning giving puberty blockers to children.</p>
<p>It is now <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/weak-evidence-britains-nhs-to-review-all-transgender-treatment-after-major-report" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reviewing</a> all transgender treatments after finding &#8220;weak evidence&#8221; supporting their use.</p>
