Ohio is about to become the second state to limit adult care that is gender affirming

This month, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine unveiled plans that, according to transgender advocates, may prevent thousands of adults from receiving gender-affirming care from independent clinics and general practitioners, putting their health at danger and placing them in a desperate search for therapy.

Ashton Colby, 31, worries that the clinic he has been receiving testosterone from since he was 19 years old may stop providing it. The transgender guy in Columbus thinks he might finally receive treatment from a different provider who complies with the new standards. However, Colby can experience a menstrual cycle for the initial time after many years after waiting even a few months.

Colby stated, “My mental health was severely stressed.” “I haven’t felt these transgender-related feelings in years, but I’m suddenly experiencing them.”
