Very few young people who access gender-affirming medical care go on to regret it (www.scimex.org)

And I wonder how many of that few only regret it because the people around them are bigots...

From what I understand, a lot of studies go on to show that this is one of the main reasons for regret. It's not "well I wasn't actually trans" like a lot of people like to think, a lot of people de-transition simply because presenting as your AGAB is far easier in a lot of places.
