Why are you still arguing that minors don't have these procedures done?

I see you've misunderstood my comment. Let me explain again:

Those planned parenthood facilities that prescribe HRT with "informed consent" rather than psychiatric evaluation cannot treat a minor, because a minor cannot give informed consent.

They do give hrt to 16 and 17 year olds, but "The child of a friend walked right into Planned Parenthood with no such diagnosis and walked right out with hormones after one meeting" could not have happened. They would have needed to walk in with their parent or guardian who would have have to have signed the informed consent.

They give hormones to people much younger than 16 or 17, so it's sort of odd that you would present that in a "oh well look they're barely minors anyway" tone, unless you are genuinely uninformed.

But yes, for minors, the parents do need to sign a single form before the clinic sends them on their way.
