Never heard of anyone who had a gender dysphoria related surgery before the age of 18 ever. Nor did I ever hear from any endocrinologist who started HRT before the age of 16.

The gatekeeping from medical professionals is massive, there isn't a single professional who doesn't question ones identity 20 times during the course of months just to be sure.

I know transmen who had top surgery before 18.
