The use of off-label puberty blocking agents in otherwise healthy children and adolescents, given their unknown long-term impact on neurodevelopment and osteogenesis (and who-knows what other possible ‘unknowns’), violates the most basic tenets of pharmacological prudence and ethics.

The fact that these agents are merely the precursor to ever-more dark and dreadful interventions makes their use even more reprehensible.

I suspect that this chapter of ‘advances in medicine’ will be reflected upon in the future with shame and disgust.
