That's the whole point of puberty blockers isn't it, since those (alone)


don't cause any irreversible effects, right?

From the Mayo Clinic:

Puberty blockers can be used to delay the changes of puberty in transgender and gender-diverse youth who have started puberty. The medicines most often used for this purpose are called gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analogues. Here's a summary of their possible benefits, side effects and long-term effects.

...

Puberty blockers are not recommended for children who have not started puberty.

...

Are the changes permanent?

GnRH analogues don't cause permanent physical changes. Instead, they pause puberty. That offers a chance to explore gender identity. It also gives youth and their families time to plan for the psychological, medical, developmental, social and legal issues that may lie ahead.

When a person stops taking GnRH analogues, puberty starts again.
