\begin{abstract}
Hi reddit, my name is Dr. Johanna Olson-Kennedy, and I have spent the
last 11 years working with gender non-conforming and transgender
children, adolescents and young adults. I am the Medical Director of the
Center for Transyouth Health and Development at Children's Hospital in
Los Angeles. Our Center currently serves over 900 gender non-conforming
and transgender children, youth and young adults between the ages of 3
and 25 years. I do everything from consultations for parents of
transgender youth, to prescribing puberty blockers and gender affirming
hormones. I am also spearheading research to help scientists, medical
and mental health providers, youth, and community members understand the
experience of gender trajectories from early childhood to young
adulthood. Having a gender identity that is different from your assigned
sex at birth can be challenging, and information available online can be
mixed. I love having the opportunity to help families and young people
navigate this journey, and achieve positive life outcomes. In addition
to providing direct patient care for around 600 patients, I am involved
in a large, multi-site NIH funded study examining the impact of blockers
and hormones on the mental health and metabolic health of youth
undergoing these interventions. Additionally, I am working on increasing
our understanding of why more transyouth from communities of color are
not accessing medical care in early adolescence. My research is very
rooted in changing practice, and helping folks get timely and
appropriate medical interventions. ASK ME ANYTHING! I will answer to the
best of my knowledge, and tell you if I don't know.

Here's the stuff on my Wikipedia page I'll be back at 2 pm EST to answer
your questions, ask me anything!%
