     @transworld it doesn't surprise me that delaying or halting puberty makes things easier in the short term, but we do not have enough data collected over a long enough timeline to assume that it won't lead to more problems 10-15 years down the road. Puberty is a hard time for everyone. It's also incredibly important for the body to be able to go through this process for health later in life. It's also not actually reversible. It's true you can stop taking the meds and some amount of pubertal development may take place, but calling that reversal is kind of a marketing tactic. We will see what effect these population wide science experiments have in a few decades. I suspect tragedy.

     @Flick @transworld > A nonprofit representing 90 percent of the nation’s fertility clinics says many doctors use the drug off-label to prepare women for in-vitro fertilization. Yet, the Lupron label warns of birth defects in rodents and advises against using the drug when one is considering pregnancy
