Original Note:
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35212746/ https://www.transgendertrend.com/the-suicide-myth/ The claim of a 73% reduction in suicide with use of puberty blockers is highly contested and comes from a single study which only considered follow-up for a 12 month period. Other studies have yielded very different results. Over-estimating suicide risks is irresponsible.
