In a unanimous decision, the Texas Supreme Court ruled that detransitioner Soren Aldaco’s medical malpractice lawsuit may proceed, reversing a lower court that had dismissed her claims as filed too late. The Court held that the statute of limitations did not begin when her therapist wrote a surgical recommendation letter, but instead when the alleged injury occurred and the therapeutic relationship ended, allowing her case to move forward.

Genspect: Transgender Identification is a Symptom
A new essay from Genspect argues that transgender identification may be better understood as a symptom of deeper psychological, developmental, or social factors rather than as a standalone condition requiring immediate medical intervention.
The article encourages clinicians to explore underlying issues such as trauma, autism spectrum conditions, anxiety, depression, family dynamics, or identity development before considering irreversible medical treatments. It advocates for a comprehensive, psychosocial approach that seeks to address the root causes of distress rather than focusing solely on body modification.
The piece contributes to the ongoing debate over how best to care for individuals experiencing sex-identity distress and emphasizes the importance of careful assessment and individualized support
