Is there anyway for me to get puberty blocking medicine for male without my parents knowing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely to happen: Medical treatment of minors in most states is done only at the consent of the parents. The bigger question i would have is why a 13 yo would want to block puberty ?
