for doctors to treat trans youth under 19 with puberty blockers or hormones to help affirm their gender identity.
Unless blocked by the court, the Alabama law will take effect May 8, making it a felony for a doctor to prescribe puberty blockers or hormones to aid in the gender transition of anyone under age 19.

If the good Lord made you a girl at birth, then you are a girl," she said."We should especially focus our efforts on helping these young people become healthy adults just like God wanted them to be rather than self-induced medical intervenors."The two lawsuits were filed by advocacy groups on behalf of families with transgender children, as well as by two medical providers.
