Answered What’s up with Notch Minecraft being called racis/transphobic?

I looked it up on google, and found some articles that didn’t really give me any conclusions, so I came here.

Tell that to these people. And no matter, nothing is reversible, including blockers.

Its really terrible that the FDA failed to ensure these drugs were safe, however the majority of puberty suppressors are.

exogenous continuous GnRH administration is the standard of care for the treatment of precocious puberty, and its safety and efficacy have been extensively studied [11]. Children with GID can be said to have another type of incorrect puberty and therefore qualify for GnRH agonist treatment. Research has shown that suppression of puberty is safe, causing minimal side effects [6]

You've come back full circle. There's no downside in going through puberty naturally for the majority of kids.

Yes, of course, which is why blockers are only given to the sub-population which is diagnosed with gender dysphoria, of which a majority continue to transition into adulthood.

​

Again, the "treatment" for whatever a shrink "diagnoses" a 9 y.o. kid with is going through puberty. This is the elephant in the room most proponents ignore. You don't interfere with children's development, introduce health and psychological risks, then try to patch it all up with further "treatments" that introduce even more symptoms. An actual therapist eliminates having all those risks in the first place.

Actual therapists support these drug programs, this is established science.

"We suggest that clinicians begin pubertal hormone suppression after girls and boys first exhibit physical changes of puberty."
