Puberty Blockers May Have Severe Longterm Effects on Kids
PJ Media ^ | NOVEMBER 15, 2022 | CATHERINE SALGADO

Recent studies provide evidence on the effects of puberty blockers on kids, a field where hitherto there has been little to no longterm data or research. And the results are sobering. It turns out trying to tamper with natural biology has bad and sometimes permanent longterm consequences. Who would have thought?

...

The cost not only comes in delayed sexual development but in serious effects such as permanently retarded bone growth, infertility, and potential retarded brain development.

“Many physicians in the United States and elsewhere are prescribing blockers to patients at the first stage of puberty — as early as age 8

...

transgender surgery will likely be a $5 billion industry by 2030 (from $1.9 billion in 2022), which indicates a high financial incentive

...

80%—of “trans” youth later change their minds and wish to return to their biological sex

...

One girl .. has permanent damage from her years on puberty blockers said of her time as a “transgender” that, “I wish I hadn’t been steered into transitioning the way I was, and that I had been told there were other ways to cope with the discomfort of puberty.” She needed counseling, not puberty blockers.

...

As one mother put it, “I don’t think we have the science behind them to be prescribing these drugs.”

This is the myth that needs to be exposed; they NEVER LEFT THEIR BIOLOGICAL SEX - they merely surgically and irreparably mutilated and retarded their bodies.

10% suicides.

leaving about 10% who benefit from puberty blockers...

sounds reasonable.

While I am alarmed at this… if parents are allowing themselves to bullied into something that only requires common sense to know giving children drugs, high levels, or daily will affect their neurological development.
They are choosing this. If they don’t have all the facts, they need to find them.
At some point, I am thinking if it is this bad, the consequences will stop this, even if we don’t legislate it.

Do we really need an official study to be done to conclude that there are problems with administering puberty blockers?

We collective have lost a certain common sense , if you will.

I have said nearly forever that I do not understand why they provide cross sex hormones instead of same sex hormones to see if that would help first. They knew over twenty years ago that cross sex hormones didn’t help kids. So what did they do? Give them more and more? Yep. It boggles the mind. They’ve been experimenting with our children, folks, and doing it to line their pockets. Evil.

The present madness of “gender affirmation surgery” will go exactly along the lines of previous fad surgeries for mental illness

blood-letting, trepanning, lobotomy, electro-shock therapy

Before long, all showed their side-effects, and all were seen as extremely barbaric

It won’t take long for surgical and chemical interventions for “gender” to be the same.

I hope they and their hospitals have really deep pockets, because these doctors will be sued into oblivion

Remember when chemical castration of sex offenders was considered inhumane?
And we willingly do it to our kids?
Beyond sick.
