Yeah I scrolled through to check if anyone advised to hold off on the surgery but nope.

One comment did but downvoted to hell, says it all. Been watching documentary saying regret kicks in around year five and serious suicidal regret around the tenth year. The scale of this is frightening

Yeah all the studies they reference to prove surgery is good only follow up for like 3-5 years max. It's either intentional misleading by chopping off the data as soon as lt looks bad or a less malicious version. I have also heard that it becomes exceptionally difficult to get people to participate in studies long term. They all stop responding to the studies and then the scientist loses hope for long term data. You even see it with people who regret the transition. Some of them still claim it was the right decision at the time or they refuse to say anything because they still buy into the propaganda that saying anything negative is "literally killing" people.

I wouldn’t wait five fucking years to notice if my dick was gone. It would take me all of five seconds to be all of “where’s the rest of me?“ like Ronald Reagan in Kings Row.
