New Florida Law Severely Limits Access to Transgender Health Care

  • The law bans gender-affirming care for minors and mandates informed consent for adult patients seeking trans health care.
  • Doctors and pharmacists are allowed to refuse to treat transgender people, further limiting options.
  • Many transgender adults in Florida are facing tough choices, including whether to uproot their lives to access gender-confirming care.
  • Clinics are struggling to operate under the new regulations, and some have stopped providing gender-affirming care altogether.
  • Florida has the second-largest population of transgender adults in the U.S., and the law has left many facing tough choices and uncertainty about their access to care.
