I've seen this 1% regret rate flying all over twitter. It's from this specific meta study.

Look at the sample sizes, bias rating and mean follow up time.

This is not robust at all and anyone quoting this should be pointed towards the meth

Additional note should be taken to "Types of regret". Not all of the meta studies asked it and the questions around detransition are "Not specified"

Also sad lol at the main cause of regret.

Meta Studies almost always have a specific purpose to prove, and with that there is an inherit bias.

Additionally, I'm not sure I can blame the authors because this information is actively screened out, making it hard to capture.

We can do better
