No it’s simply because we don’t really know how to go at things directly because there’s different reasons etc also we can do gene therapy but due to how the law operates it will be hard to do human trials making harder to go at the issue directly which is why we’re forced to go at the symptoms instead.
For example finasteride
Can gene therapy be done now?
No unless you have a deadly and rare chronic illness you won’t be able to get gene therapy because it’s illegal in western countries I reckon in china they did something similar for kids but when it became known it backlashed
Isn't the biggest risk of gene therapy that a gene locus has more than one function and we don't yet know the consequences if we change it?
I am smarter than every doctor on earth
Yes it’s a reason too but also we usually don’t mess with genetics due to the fact most people your average person doesn’t like the idea of having genetically modified humans living in the same society as them this is what people are afraid of it’s a mix of safety and also due to the law and reaction of people in general.
