The piece was about, you know, that these are kind of given to kids who either, you know, kind of are transgender or believe that they're transgender to pause puberty, and then later on, if they decide to kind of continue with their transition, they can start on cross-sex hormones.
And the piece featured...
three children, one of them was a trans girl who from a very early age had identified as female who went on puberty blockers, later started estrogen, was very glad, she and her family were very glad not to have to go, that she hadn't had to go through a male puberty,
and this was clearly the right thing for her.
There was another young woman who had kind of her doubts about her gender coincided with other psychological troubles and she had started puberty blockers and then started testosterone, but later decided that she wasn't actually male and that this had been kind of a grievous mistake and that she feels like the process had been too rushed.
there was a third child who developed significant bone density issues and ended up going off puberty blockers for those reasons.
And... Now, the...

I'm not giving myself credit.
