This thread is not about adults though, it's about treatment of under 18's and being more thorough. The reason why they're doing this is because they've began to get sued by young patients who were given these drugs and now regret it (and can't ever fully change their bodies back) and are saying they should have been investigated more thoroughly by the Dr's and therapists who dealt with them
