Pubertal Suppression Therapy 0
Pubertal Suppression Therapy is a medical intervention used to delay the onset of puberty in adolescents, primarily for those experiencing gender dysphoria, allowing them more time to explore their gender identity without the distress of developing secondary sexual characteristics. This therapy involves the use of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists to temporarily halt the production of sex hormones, effectively pausing puberty.
