Italian law would regulate gender transition treatment for minors

The Italian government, under new legislation, would tighten controls on the supply of gender transition medical treatment for minors, according to a draft law.

The law was passed by Italy's cabinet late on Monday but is still subject to approval from parliament. The government said the law was needed "to protect the health of minors" and introduce "effective data monitoring."

The measure would regulate medications such as puberty blockers and feminizing or masculinizing hormones for people under the age of 18 who are experiencing gender dysphoria.
