Yes but if there is a risk, we should always be able to weigh the risks and benefits ourselves and decide which ones WE are comfortable with. It’s not the doctor's body and the doctors should advise to the best of their ability but always leave that choice up to the patient with no negative repercussions. Unfortunately that is not how many doctors operate (no pun intended 😛) 😕

I agree. Frequently, doctors assume they know best, when they don’t. Everyone’s genetic makeup is different, even siblings. What works for one person is not necessarily going to work for another person. And, ultimately, it should be the person (or the parent) who makes that final decision.
