How to care for the increasing number of young people struggling with their gender is the subject of heated global debate.
The fight over whether medical interventions, including puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones, should be administered to those who are transgender, is now boiling over in Australia. It's playing out dramatically at Westmead children's hospital in Sydney.
Four Corners meets the families at the centre of the debate. It breaks open the feud over transgender youth healthcare, navigating polarised arguments and interrogating scientific research over the best model of care.
This documentary was originally broadcast as 'Blocked' on July 10, 2023, on ABC TV and ABC iview.
