Egnland: NHS stops giving puberty blockers to trans people. He cites insufficient data as the reason.
The drugs that prevent the onset of puberty symptoms such as menstruation, breast growth and voice loss will therefore only be allowed to be used in clinical studies in the future. The number of children referred to the relevant service has risen sharply in recent years. However, studies so far show that the effects of the medication are reversible. They also help reduce depression and suicide rates among transgender youth.
