Many people regret surgeries and similar. Should we ban knee surgery? Hip replacements? Should teenage girls be barred from breast reduction surgery?

If not, can you clearly differentiate between these cases?

The things you listed are physical ailments. The last time we treated mental illness with surgery, it was called a lobotomy.

Why does it matter if it's physical or mental? People regret all those surgeries at a much, much higher rate. Incredibly few trans people do, and those that transition are much less likely to commit suicide.

But I somehow get the feeling that's not a good thing for everyone.
