Puberty blockers
Medical operations by doctors and hormone pills can change the body, but those operations are not done on young people. Instead, doctors can give drugs that slow down or stop puberty so the person has more time to decide what to do. Also, it should lower the number of transgender young people who kill themselves. That sometimes happens because they are bullied by other people, or because they feel very unhappy having their body become an adult body that they do not want because they feel it is the wrong body. As of 2023, some states in the United States say doctors cannot give these drugs to young people. The talk about these drugs has become very political.
