Secondly, Doctors have done some hella sketchy s*** over the centuries and some fields are in strong philosophical conflict, one doctor OKing something faaaaaar from makes it ethical.

So let them sort that conflict out. You're concerned about the political climate influencing research on the matter? That risk exists here for no other reason than that (primarily religious conservative) people have decided that transgenderism is wrong and must be opposed, which in turn created a reactionary movement pushing for acceptance. If not for that, it wouldn't even be a political issue.

Everyone needs to shut up and let science do its job. If you have reason to believe your doctor hasn't done their due diligence in considering the science when treating you, you can sue them for malpractice, and recommend that your friends and loved ones do the same if they've been similarly wronged, but otherwise, let doctors figure medicine out. Collectively, they know what they're doing, even if there are a few dissenters or less competent folks here and there.
