In Northern Syria, the sinister practice of "forced puberty" involves administering young girls with hormonal pills and injections to hasten their puberty for the sole purpose of marrying them off early. Additionally, some parents are reported to physically beat their daughters on their backs under the misguided belief that it accelerates puberty. For instance, Samar, a girl mentioned in a report by online publication TinyHand, was forced by her father at the age of 14 to take pills in their tent to speed up her puberty, which led to her marriage soon after her first period. This practice has devastating consequences; Samar was divorced after getting pregnant and losing her baby. Despite bans by Health Directorates of Idlib and Aleppo on selling and using hormonal injections and drugs without prescriptions, the TinyHand investigation found that these medications, containing estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone, can still be purchased without prescriptions. Dr. Kenan Ziyadoglu, a gynecologist interviewed in the report, stated that these practices could lead to early menopause before the age of 35 and, in severe cases, cause ovarian or uterine cancer. ✊ Volunteer for in our team https://forms.gle/FPGMJTHrVnpVe8pN8 ?
