A new report by paediatrician Dr Hilary Cass has found that there is "remarkably weak evidence" to support gender treatments for children.
Dr Hilary Cass said poor mental health and social media have had a major impact on gender identity amongst young people.
"We've got significant increases in poor mental health amongst young people, particularly amongst girls.
Also there are more neurodiverse young people in this cohort," she added.
The Cass Review, published on Wednesday by paediatrician Dr Hilary Cass, calls for gender services for young people to match the standards of other NHS care.

Justice Minister Laura Farris has praised a new report by paediatrician Dr Hilary Cass, which calls for gender services for young people to match the standards of other NHS care. The Cass Review was commissioned by NHS England in 2020 after a rise in the number of patients referred to the NHS who expressed interest in changing their gender. "Dr Cass has done amazing work identifying and highlighting the voices of the doctors in the area who said they felt under intense pressure to adopt an unquestioning affirmative attitude to any teenager who would come to them," Ms Farris said.

Sir Keir Starmer has unveiled a pledge card with six "first steps" the Labour Party would take if it were to form a government after the next general election. The steps include measures to invest in the NHS, education and policing, to set up a new national energy company and an elite border force, and to promote economic stability. The move, unveiled during a campaign speech in Essex, is reminiscent of Tony Blair’s five pledges ahead of Labour’s landslide victory in 1997, and less favourably of Ed Miliband’s promises carved into stone in 2015.
