WARNING : WHAT FOLLOWS IS MY SPECULATION. Nothing has been proven yet, but this is for what I am watching :

Women make up the overwhelming bulk of alzheimer's patients-possibly as high as 90%. Since no one cares much about women's health matters, those few who have noticed this have just hand waved it away with women "live longer". But the difference in male and female life spans amounts to about 2 years, nowhere near enough to account for such a disparity, plus women with alzheimer's begin showing symptoms in their late 50s , while men generally don't show symptoms till they're in their 80s (plus women alzheimers patients retain their verbal dexterity better than do men patients).

Researchers are currently investigating a link between menopause (specifically the sudden decline in estrogen) and alzheimer's . Here's is an interview with one rearcher-Lisa Mosconi, who has also written a book on the subject, The XX Brain :

I keep seeing speculations as to what will hopefully end the anti science reign of terror. Some think it will be transed kids killing themselves en masse or suing the doctors and foundations responsible. But if transing children results in them having an IQ a full standard deviation lower than it would otherwise have been, AND if not going through puberty keeps their brains from maturing (as puberty is also about mental and emotional maturation), then will they ever get to a place where they can truly comprehend what they lost? That plus their own susceptibility to the "sunk cost fallacy" will likely prevent transed kids from being what finally peaks the world and makes GRS/SRS (and the efforts to make sex and gender synonymous is the root of the problem) something to be spoken of in the same breath as lobotomies.

But what about transmen/TiFs?

If it is true that menopause and the sudden drop in estrogen is what makes women so much more susceptible to alzheimers than men, what happens to women who have been subjected to high dosages of testosterone and to extreme body modification surgeries to help them pass ? For girls put on puberty blockers , Lupron is said to leave ovaries "shriveled like raisins" (I've seen that phrase more than once in articles on puberty blockers and their side effects) , even though they are usually left intact just because of their role with hormones. What about transmen who were post pubertal ; they may have escaped lupron , but what are doses of testosterone great enough to cause male pattern baldness, facial hair , and voices changes doing to them internally?

If menopause /sudden drop in estrogen is what causes women to get alzheimers at so much higher a rate than men, then women who have had their ovaries "shrivelled" by puberty blockers and/or high doses of testosterone may be at elevated risk for alzheimers, possibly early onset, especially those with a genetic or environmental predisposition (there may be a genetic link , but environmental factories-especially crappy diets-may play a role too. I have seen alzheimers disease called Type III diabetes.)

A disturbingly high percentage of transmen/TiFs getting alzheimers (IF my speculations are correct), especially early onset, may be what peaks the world and gets the surgeries banned for anyone except the tiny percentage of males and females who have genuine, diagnosed dysphoria. A reset to how it was in yesterdecade, IOW.
