This from the Lancet puts it best;
Puberty blockers are falsely claimed to cause infertility and to be irreversible, despite no substantiated evidence. The dominance of the infertility narrative, usually focused on child-bearing ability, perhaps reveals more about conservatives' commitment to women's role as child-bearers. Puberty blockers are framed as pushing children into taking hormones, whereas the time they provide allows for conversations with health providers and parents on different options. Gender transition involves many decisions over a long time, and those who take hormones do so because they are trans. Contrary to claims of a new phenomenon, trans youth have always existed; historians show they have sought trans medicine since it became possible: the 1930s in the USA.
If we block LH in the brain to achieve the desired result, how can a person remain fertile when the body isn’t producing endogenous testosterone or estrogen ?
The answer is, you can’t. It may not happen overnight, but eventually, it will. The pathway is shutdown and eventually the glands atrophy.
Once that happens, if the body remains in that state, there is no guarantee you can regain function after that. In these cases, the body will have to stay in that state in order to keep your sex hormones suppressed.
Now, if you think that is not dangerous, just look at the bodybuilding community and look what happens to people who chronically abuse steroids. Then ask yourself, why are we letting kids do this?
