The U.S. Army has announced barring transgender individuals from enlisting and pausing all gender-affirming medical procedures for current service members. The changes, outlined in a series of statements from the Army’s official social media accounts, are effective immediately.
The #USArmy will no longer allow transgender individuals to join the military and will stop performing or facilitating procedures associated with gender transition for service members.
Stay tuned for more details.

According to the announcement, new enlistments for individuals with a history of gender dysphoria will be halted. Additionally, any previously scheduled, planned, or unscheduled medical procedures related to gender transition for active-duty personnel will be put on hold.
Despite the restrictive measures, the Army emphasized that individuals with gender dysphoria who are already serving will continue to be treated with “dignity and respect.” However, the impact of this policy change on transgender service members’ military careers and healthcare remains unclear.
As the military implements these new restrictions, legal challenges and policy debates are expected to follow. The future of transgender service members in the U.S. military remains a contentious and evolving issue.
