you are an anti vaccine zealot who believes in homeopathy, electromagnetic pollution and defend a doctor, Mark Geier who injects children with Lupron, a powerful drug that interferes with their hormonal balance and has dangerous side effects. This drug is expensive and he has to pretend his victims have precocious puberty to fool the insurance companies into picking up the bill. But that is OK because he is a brave maverick doctor standing up to the drug companies that are only motivated by profit.

You peddle this nonsense on a site devoted to women's health, unaware of the controversy surrounding this drug among those for whom it is legitimately prescribed. You have written elsewhere about Endometriosis. Lupron is a treatment for this that has had a mixed reception amongst women. See http://www.endometriosis-survivor.com/?page_id=10

I do not know if the controversy around Lupron has any more basis than the controversy around vaccines. But there is a very vocal patient led movement against it which should give pause to anybody supporting its off label use in children in doses that exceed all clinical recommendations.

Geier's Lupron protocol is at best malpractice. At worst it is child abuse. It has cost him his medical licence in a number of states in the USA. You support his chemical castration of children while promoting alternative, non-invasive therapies because you share the same anti vaccine rhetoric. What a disgrace.
