The iatrogenic effect refers to any adverse condition or complication that results from medical treatment or intervention rather than from the underlying disease or condition itself. In the context of pediatric sex changes, iatrogenic concerns revolve around the potentially harmful outcomes that result from early social and medical interventions. These effects may lock a child into a transition process that they might not have chosen if left to develop naturally, leading to irreversible and life-altering consequences.
