A US court has ordered Children's Minnesota to restart gender-related care for minors. The hospital halted these treatments in February under government pressure.

Children's Minnesota suspended all gender-related medical support for patients under eighteen years old. This followed pressure from the Trump administration on hospitals. The organisation stated the pause was necessary to review protocols.

A judge ruled the hospital must quickly resume this care. Treatment includes hormone therapy and psychological support. The judge found stopping this care was likely unlawful and harmed patients.

The case raises questions about government involvement in hospital medical decisions. Medical organisations say gender-related care for youth is safe with proper supervision. Opponents point to risks and argue young people are too young for such treatments.

The hospital may appeal the judge's decision.
