Trans gender-affirming treatment regret rates compared to other treatment regret rates
TL;DR: The only procedure that is really close in terms of the extremely low regret rate for gender-affirming surgeries in trans people is double mastectomy in cis women who have the genetic marker for breast cancer (45-90% limetime risk of breast cancer[1]).
Treatment | Regret rate | Source |
---|---|---|
Any kind of gender affirmation surgery for trans people | <1% (transmasc), 1% (transfem) | Source |
Double mastectomy to prevent breast cancer in genetically-prone cis women | 0% regret, but 3.6% would definitely not make the same decision again | Source |
Hysterectomy in cis women for menorrhagia, fibroids, endometriosis, pelvic pain | 2.8% | Source |
Vasectomy | 6% | Source |
Breast implants in cisgender women | <10% regret, 6% want implants removed | Source |
Elective plastic surgery in adolescence | Varies by procedure but around 10% seems common | Source |
Regret of having children | Varies by study, but usually in the 10-20% range | Source |
Hysterectomy in cis women for endometriosis | 16.3% had "some level of regret" | Source |
Breast reconstruction after a mastectomy | 19.5% moderate to strong regret | Source |
Back surgery | 21% in older adults | Source |
Knee surgery | 22% total regret, 2.9% even without complications | Source |
Using hormones to limit the adult height of tall girls | 42.1% | Source |
Also in a Dutch study 98%[2] of those who received gender affirmative care as kids continued to use hormones as adults.
