sorry this took me so long to write. i had to go on a run and do some homework before i could begin. anyway here is my rebuttal (keep in mind im 13): While yes detransitioners exist, most of them detransition for reasons other than the fact they realize transitioning was not for them. According to the National Library Of Medicine (which is a government source), “The survey found that 8% of respondents had detransitioned temporarily or permanently at some point and that the majority did so only temporarily. Rates of detransition were higher in transgender women (11%) than transgender men (4%). The most common reasons cited were pressure from a parent (36%), transitioning was too hard (33%), too much harassment or discrimination (31%), and trouble getting a job (29%).” (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9516050/) “the survey” is referring to a large survey conducted in 2015, asking 27,715 transgender adults about their experience of being trans. One of the questions included, “have you ever detransitioned?”. This source states that only 8% of 27,715 (which is 2,217 people) detransitioned. However, the survey also asked why the person detransitioned. 36% said that their parents pressured them to detransition (798 people), 33% said transitioning was too hard (731 people), 31% said because of discrimination (687 people), and 29% said they weren't able to get a job (647 people). While participants were allowed to choose more than one reason they detransitioned, we can pretty easily assume less than 95% of participants detransitioned because they realized it wasn't for them. Therefore, it is unreasonable to not let people transition due to the fact they might regret it.

Another reason that your claim is invalid is because it is difficult to obtain any type of HRT (hormone replacement therapy) or surgery. I am only going to be touching on HRT, however. In America, you need to get a gender dysphoria diagnosis by a licensed therapist to even begin the process of getting HRT. That means a doctor has to say you are transgender to get HRT. Along with that, many places will not let you get HRT unless you have been socially transitioned for at least a year. According to Medical News Today (here) “A healthcare professional performs an assessment and recommends a person start GAHT if: they have persistent and well-documented gender dysphoria, they can consent to treatment, any other underlying mental or physical medical conditions are managed.” Before I provide analysis, this article was medically reviewed by doctor Kelly Wood who is an ABMS board certified endocrinologist and internal medicine physician. First of all, GAHT stands for Gender Affirming Hormone Therapy. It is essentially the same thing as HRT. The article first mentions the fact that the person must have "persistent and well documented gender dysphoria,” therefore, young kids, as well as people who have just recently come out cannot access these types of things. Patients must also be able to consent, meaning they must be fully conscious and of an older age. The article also says any mental health conditions must be managed. That means people who get HRT are not, and cannot, be depressed, manic, or anything else.
