My niece was taking doxycycline, one of the best antibiotics we have for the bugs that it kills. I hated seeing that being prescribed for something as mundane as acne, when it should be reserved for serious infections, for which it has been selected by an antibiotic sensitivity test in the lab. It certainly should be debated by the medical community the ethics of degrading the antibiotic's usefulness in this manner.

It can be argued that going through male puberty shortens your life by 10 years on average. At the same time, biological males with gender dysphoria have a successful suicide rate of something like 30%.

The medical profession would probably argue against artificially delaying puberty for something as trivial as to maintain a longer career as a boy soprano, although I can certainly sympathize with the idea. I'm pretty sure it's only used in the case of gender dysphoria to allow the teens to reach adulthood and legally able to make their own choice, without having their body ravaged by puberty of the gender which they don't believe that they belong to. This satisfies the ethical requirements of autonomy and beneficence,
