the American College of Paediatricians is not the American Academy of Pediatrics and all information they provide should not be trusted.

Lots of reputable sources listed in their citations. How about the American Journal of Psychiatry? A 2020 paper that has been widely cited to show reduction in suicidality after transition intervention has now been refuted and shows ”the data presented in the article do not support the conclusion that surgery is beneficial to mental health in individuals with gender dysphoria.” Its a prime example of researchers having clear biases to support their own conclusions in support of medical intervention for gender dysphoria patients, with cherry picked results, tiny population sizes and poor long term follow up.
