Something that stuck with me is that puberty is always kind of traumatic, your body going through rapid uncontrollable changes. Particularly if those changes are unwanted, feel wrong and cause dysphoria. Blockers give us back some control over the process and allow kids to go through puberty when they’re ready and in a manner they’re okay with.
Mia Mulder’s video on puberty blockers is excellent :) https://youtu.be/C7XYfffLMEQ
