So delaying or stopping puberty, for how long? your body will turn out exactly like if you had not delayed/stopped hormones?

If you want to know those things, educate yourself. I recommend google scholar.

Well, I’m no medical professional, but medical professionals have been prescribing puberty blockers for other things for decades, and if they were as dangerous as all that, then you’d think the FDA would have banned that by now.

Besides which, access to treatments like those ones are documented to reduce rates of self-harm, including suicide, among kids with gender dysphoria. And if your metric is the body turning out like it would have without these treatments, well, I hope I don’t need to fill in the blank for you.

Yeah that is good for them. It just seems wrong to say its reversible.

They’re more reversible than suicide.

But sure, I hear you, that doesn’t actually answer the question. So here’s an authoritative source on the matter. To drastically hyper-over-simplify, they basically are.
