Save you some reading time: None of your damn business. Health care is between a doctor and patient and ain't our concern.

One of the greatest sources of fear - and thus hate - is ignorance. Generalised information about what gender-affirming care for younger people entails doesn't violate any individual patient's right to privacy, but it does help to clear up the disinformation. Those who don't know what trans healthcare actually looks like will fill in the details with all kinds of imagined fears, and will make demands for legislation based on things that aren't really happening.
