Taking puberty blockers
Are you still very young?
And haven't you reached puberty yet?
Then you can take puberty blockers.
Puberty blockers are special medicines.
The word blocker means to stop.
These medicines make that you don't go through puberty.
This means that your body does not develop any further.
Neither in the direction of a woman.
Nor in the direction of a man.
This gives you more time to think.
And you can think in peace:
Which body suits me?
Take hormones
Maybe you'll say:
No, I'm quite sure.
This body really doesn't
feel right the way I feel.
Then you can take certain hormones.
