Dr. Hilary Cass emphasized that puberty blockers have been oversold and the evidence supporting their benefit for the majority of young people is very limited.
Dr. Cass noted that young people questioning their gender are in a dynamic state of development, hence careful consideration is essential before administering medical interventions.
The ban on puberty blockers was a response to Dr. Cass's landmark review, which highlighted the need for better psychological support for youth struggling with gender issues.
The British Medical Association initially criticized Dr. Cass's recommendations, but revised its stance following backlash from doctors concerned about the implications of the ban.
