Original Note:
Puberty blockers have never been used to treat early heavy periods. They were used to treat Precocious Puberty (under age 10), which affects 1 in 10000 children. It seems unlikely that "loads of girls" were on them at Jameela's school, which had under 300 pupils below age 10. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6486823/
