    They need therapy, and puberty blockers have to be done as puberty starts, and that deadline causes steps to be skipped, things rushed, corners skipped, and once its done, its done. You cant undo it.

    Hold on. Puberty is the thing that is forcing things to be done in haste. Puberty blockers give people time to figure things out. That’s the point of it. It gives time to think. Puberty has significant consequences and side effects. Delaying that the effects are just that it’s delayed. It’s preventing the effects. Some people go through puberty later than others. Puberty blockers are largely just a mechanism we have to control when that happens. You can’t undo going through puberty, but you can largely undo the effects of puberty blockers.
