There's no real harm in going on puberty blockers to give kids more time to make a decision. The results of transgendered adults who had properly supportive parents at a young age are pretty amazing not just in looks but also mental wellbeing.


More time? Hes 7 why not wait for him to make it himself when hes an ADULT

Because if they are trans then that will significantly reduces their quality of life and increase their risks of greatest mental health problems and suicide.


I'd also wager to bet that 7 year olds arent fully equipped to start making there life altering choices. What happens if they become an adult and regret going on puberty blockers at SEVEN years old?

Thats why 7 year old arent the one making all of the choices. What side effects are you worried about from going on puberty blockers?


So, say I had gone on puberty blockers at age 7 and remained on them until 16 before realizing Im not transgendered. How different would I be physically now, 10 years later, from how I am?


Historically, the average age people (well, Europeans) started puberty at was 16 throughout most of the medieval period. If we're doing a general age range that encompasses most of the time from 1 CE to the present year CE, it'd be 13-17. The 20th century actually averaged starting at 12 and currently it's floating around 12.5 as the average age to start puberty.

So honestly? There wouldn't be much difference, unless you mean you were on blockers then transitioned, then you'd still definitely be able to pass for cisgender although you'd probably not reach an average penis size as a result of never experiencing a testosterone-induced puberty.
