The NZ media is not the ally of queer folks, volume fucking 8 billion. Herald prints this article. I google the study author's name. This is the first result. www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/puberty-b...

Lead researcher Charlotte Paul, an epidemiologist and public health expert at the University of Otago, said the relatively high use appeared to be be driven by three factors in New Zealand: easier access to assessment; a lower threshold for the diagnosis of gender dysphoria; and greater likelihood of recommending puberty blockers than other treatment options.

A fall in the number of first-time prescriptions in the last few years was possibly the result of clinicians and parents becoming aware of more cautious approaches being taken overseas, she said.

There were some limitations to the findings, which were published in the New Zealand Medical Journal today. It was not possible to know whether the medication was being prescribed for gender dysphoria or other conditions like precocious puberty. For this reason, researchers focused on prescriptions over the age of 12, when they were highly likely to relate to dysphoria.
Puberty blocker use in New Zealand far higher than similar countries - study
A terrible trap

As more countries move to restrict the use of puberty blocking hormones for children with gender dysphoria, use in New Zealand continues to increase. Charlotte Paul says our health authorities must act.

“I find it very difficult to find a cooperative game nowadays between parents and children, where the parent has as much fun as the child. So it's difficult to find and create balance, but it's very, very interesting working in that field for that reason.” patrickklepek.substack.com/p/making-a-v...
