In this bonus episode for premium subscribers, Jesper Rasmussen emphasizes a strategic approach to effecting change in public policy and societal perceptions. His comprehensive strategy balances direct political action with broader efforts to sway public opinion and leverage media influence. His efforts in Denmark involved relentless conversations about the hidden truths behind gender affirming care for minors, much like the iatrogenic effects. His persistence in securing meetings and fostering alliances significantly impacting the debate in the Danish Parliament. Jesper highlights the importance of engaging public perception in shaping political decisions and leveraging media and strategic messaging to change societal views.

The iatrogenic effect refers to any adverse condition or complication that results from medical treatment or intervention rather than from the underlying disease or condition itself.

Iatrogenic effects are generally a significant concern in medicine because they underscore the importance of weighing the risks and benefits of any medical intervention. Medical professionals strive to minimize these effects through careful planning, informed consent, and adherence to best practices. So why are they being entirely disregarded with respect to pediatric gender medical treatments?
