Transgender and nonbinary patients have no regrets about top surgery, small study finds
The study, published Wednesday in the journal JAMA Surgery, shows that people who had a gender-affirming mastectomy, sometimes called top surgery, had extremely low rates of decisional regret and extremely high levels of satisfaction with their decision to have the procedure. The results are “overwhelmingly positive compared to other medical and nonmedical decisions,” the study said. Not every person who gets gender-affirming care will have surgery.
“I was thinking we’d see a little bit of higher regret numbers like we sometimes do with other kinds of surgeries,” said Manrique, a plastic surgeon at the University of Rochester Medical Center School of Medicine and Dentistry. “I believe the main reason, especially here in the US, the regret rate is so low is because there’s strict guidelines with these surgeries.
