What I'm seeing draws on both the scientific articles I've already read, and what I literally observe when I'm not reading studies. And yes, I happen to expect both of these to belong to the real world, where we hopefully both live.

AFAIK, the alleged success rate of 98% comes from studies done on adults who transitioned after lengthy medical consultations and psychological assessments in Europe. The less differential diagnosis is valued and applied, and the more pre-screening has become a dirty world, the less likely it is that those conclusions are relevant to the experience of American minors being recommended for trans-related puberty blockers and hormones.

But there are studies that are trying to address these questions. For brevity's sake, I will only link to an overview: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10508-023-02626-2

One of the more interesting conclusions I see being drawn, in detrans spaces as well as the blunter research papers, is that mental health problems and neurodevelopmental comorbitidies are strongly implicated in transition regret. People find themselves wondering why their doctors didn't recognize the role that autism, ADD, bipolar disorder, OCD, and similar played in creating their dysphoria.

Also, I suspect the sentence "when obtaining informed consent, clinicians should ensure patients understand that medical transition is not an antidote for the enduring consequences of childhood adversity, co-existing physical or psychological disadvantages, or unfortunate family circumstances" is going to stay with me for a while.
