According to a Kaiser Health News report, using puberty suppressing drugs not only prevents children from developing secondary sex characteristics, it also can make it far easier for transgender teens to fit in. [

The article notes that there is some disagreement within the medical community as to when it is appropriate to start a child on puberty blocking medication.
A study in 2008 found that 43 percent of very young children who experienced gender dysphoria no longer felt that way after adolescence, the article says.

Stop messing with children's natural development and help them accept who and what they are instead.
It will solve 99% of all gender issues.

The guys I knew in High school would NEVER fit in a transgender. But might have found out if the Tranny would fit inside a football locker

Using powerful hormones with HORRIBLE effects to support a child’s delusion (perhaps a delusion reinforced by parents and/or peers) is child abuse!!!!
God is looking at our society, and at our professions (medical, educational, even clergy), and there is much to grieve His heart!!!!

This transgender movement misses the obvious.
They will give a boy FEMALE hormones to turn him into a girl...why not try MALE hormones FIRST....
A logical medical application wouldn’t be politically correct I suppose.

How about old-age, or male and female meno-pausal blocking medication? Now, that would be a big seller!

The pedophiles will love it. The patients, not so much.

Why not let the glands determine the hormone levels instead. Seems to have worked well for millennia.
