Claims of suicide rise over puberty blocker restrictions not supported by data, review finds
Campaigners' claims that there has been a rise in the number of suicides since restrictions were placed on puberty blockers is not supported by data, a review has found. A report published by the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) said discussion of the issue online had been "insensitive, distressing and dangerous" and had gone against guidance on the safe reporting of suicide. Health Secretary Wes Streeting - who has said he supports the current temporary ban on puberty blockers - tasked independent adviser Professor Louis Appleby with reviewing NHS England data on suicides by young patients of the now-closed Gender Identity Development Service (GIDS) at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust.

Mum-to-be undergoing chemo after breast cancer diagnosis at 10 weeks
A mum-to-be who thought a lump in her breast was due to hormonal changes discovered she had breast cancer at 10 weeks pregnant. Amy Scanlon, 30, initially put the lump in her left breast down to hormonal changes after undergoing fertility treatment - but decided to get it checked out just in case. She and her partner, Gerald Catney, 34, an operations manager, had been overjoyed when they found out they were expecting in February 2024 after undergoing four rounds of medicated cycles. But their joy was short-lived when Amy was diagnosed with breast cancer 10 weeks in on 21 March 2024 - after months of appointments, tests and ultrasounds. Now, with just three months to go before her due date on 18 October, Amy is undergoing chemotherapy as a preventative measure to ensure the cancer does not spread. When her daughter is born, Amy will have three more rounds of chemotherapy, radiation, and 10 rounds of Herceptin infusions - as well as between five to 10 years of hormone therapy medication.
