Do No Harm

Wow. A father documenting his four year old son's transition journey-this is tragic.

A child should be having fun, playing games, and making friends. Instead, this child went to a gender clinic.

Doctors are breaking the most basic oath of human medicine: to do no harm. 🚨

The idea, which goes all the way back to Ancient Greece, instructs physicians “to help, or at least to do no harm.”

For 2,000 years this principle has guided medicine, reinforcing the physician’s sacred duty to consider the long-term consequence of any given treatment and not just the patient’s immediate wishes. 

Yet, when doctors provide “sex-rejecting treatments,” they are profoundly violating this oath.

👉 They harm trust by telling children they can become the opposite sex.

👉 They harm bodies by flooding children with cross-sex hormones and removing young girls’ healthy breasts.

👉 They harm minds by deepening the distress they claim to relieve.

👉 They harm futures by threatening children’s fertility and binding them to a lifetime of medical dependence.

👉 They harm science by denying basic human biology.

Medicine must get back to healing the whole patient.

Children struggling with gender dysphoria need help addressing the issues that have caused their distress, not “treatments” that exacerbate it.  ❤️‍🩹

"On Nov. 11, The Washington Post published an article titled “Most transgender people have no regrets years after hormone therapy, study says.”

According to the Post, nearly 97 percent of individuals who began taking opposite-sex hormones as youths believed they made the right decision.

Only about 3 percent reported regret, and fewer than 2 percent reported harm.

Sounds pretty convincing, doesn’t it?

Not so much... "

Was your baby “sung earthside” with “ancient wisdom” and “ancient practices”?

That’s apparently the kind of maternal care the ARIAH Foundation promotes through its partners and events. 🤨

ARIAH’s goal is stated on their website: “dedicated to improving the mental and physical health of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC), particularly birthing people.”

Notice that “birthing people” and not women are identified here. 🚩

Don’t get us wrong. There’s a lot of good in delivering babies in a way that honors a mother’s beliefs and wishes. 

The problem comes when “indigenous” approaches replace evidence-based medicine at the expense of mother and child.

Give her care that comforts her, but don’t swap fetal monitors and IV pumps for “ancient wisdom” when she needs them. 🩺

So why does SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University list ARIAH as one of its community partners? 

That’s hard to reconcile with the school’s stated mission to “provide outstanding education” to future physicians, nurses, and other healthcare professionals and to “advance knowledge through cutting edge research.”

A health sciences university should be teaching health science, not indigenous methods of healing. 🚫
