Over in their UK, the NHS has confirmed they will stop prescribing puberty blockers for under-18s.

A review by Dr Hilary Cass claimed there were 'gaps in evidence' around the drugs- and puberty blockers will no longer be given out to minors as a result.

UK correspondent Gavin Grey says Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has voiced support for these changes.
