Study: Most teens who start puberty suppression continue gender-affirming care : NPR https://www.npr.org/2022/10/26/1131398960/gender-affirming-care-trans-puberty-suppression-teens
Researchers found that a whopping 98% of people who had started gender-affirming medical treatment in adolescence continued to use gender-affirming hormones at follow-up. The finding is significant because of ongoing political debates over whether young people should receive gender-affirming treatment, with some opponents arguing that many transgender children and teens will realize later in life that they aren't really trans.

An open letter to trans youth nationwide who are enduring insults & attacks from adults right now / LGBTQ Nation
Trans youth – I know you’re under attack. I know you’re already dealing with so much in your everyday life. I know it’s hard and invalidating to hear not just your life but also your body and whole existence be talked about and debated like this by people who do not understand.
