Patients under 18 in Ohio can no longer receive gender-affirming care except for existing cases, after a judge upheld the state's ban, which two families challenged.
The ruling implies dissatisfaction with the law should be addressed through voting, as the law prohibits gender-affirming care and trans girls/women in sports.
Ohio's ban is criticized for being medically unfounded and harmful to transgender youth. It is part of the trend in 24 states banning gender-affirming care for youth.
