"A further concern...is that adolescent sex hormone surges may trigger the opening of a critical period for experience-dependent rewiring of neural circuits underlying executive function (i.e. maturation of the part of the brain concerned with planning, decision making and judgement). If this is the case, brain maturation may be temporarily or permanently disrupted by the use of puberty blockers](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:pzvko3dvcjbysqakwci3t3gf/bafkreicirkhsnwme7hotmq3hjrkk2lf6rjrjbfqgxgbwtegdvt5h6xwngi)
