Xtra Explains: Detransition | Xtra Magazine

There are plenty of reasons why someone will detransition-a term referring to the act of reversing medical or social transition-ranging from personal circumstance to facing transphobia and a non-supportive environment, such as non-affirming parents or experiences with conversion therapy.
But detransitioning in general has become a hot-button issue, as many self-proclaimed detransition activists advocate for restrictions of gender-affirming care, particularly for you.
As part of our series Xtra Explains: Trans Youth, senior editor Mel Woods breaks down everything you need to know about detransition and young trans folks.
Check out other explainers on topics like sports, puberty blockers and social contagion theory on our website, KZbin channel and TikTok.
