Argentine President Javier Milei has enacted a decree prohibiting gender transition procedures for individuals under 18 and restricting the housing of female-identifying males in women’s correctional facilities.
Presidential spokesperson Manuel Adorni announced the decision during a Feb. 5 press conference, at which he said the move involves the repeal of a 2012 law that permitted transgender procedures for minors with parental approval. Adorni added that the ban would include hormone therapy.
