Very few teens with gender dysphoria quit hormone therapy: study
Given concern about the potential for regret in adulthood, doctors say the findings are reassuring

Dutch clinicians say results from their study of more than 700 transgender individuals are “reassuring” given concerns about potential regret in those who have transitioned.
