LinkIt is an interesting article and raises some pretty good questions. The part I found interesting (because it is the first I have heard of it) is this one here:
High-dose estrogen was used occasionally in the 1950s and 1960s, mostly on teenage girls whose parents were concerned about the social stigma of being too tall.
The drugs could stop a 5-foot-9 girl from becoming, say, 6 feet tall. But as that stigma has gone out of fashion, so has the treatment, medical ethicists say.
