Episode 44: ASAB Presents the Science... Hormone Therapy

In this episode, motivated by the recent barrage of anti-trans legislation, we begin a dig into the science underlying gender-affirming care, beginning with hormones and hormone therapy. Topics include "sex" hormones and how they work, chromosomal sex determination, and puberty blockers (mechanism and long-term health prospects).
