The only proven effective treatment for transgendered is to let them transition.That's not true, there are some examples in the case study I posted of successful treatments that did not result in a sex change. it depends on the individual. Some transexuals want to be however they were born, they just need help.
It is not ideology. It is practice and experience. The medical establishment tried absolutely everything they could to stop transgendered people transitioning. Absolutely nothing else worked.
The difficulty is in determining who is transsexual and who isn't. If you truly are a transsexual then the only effective treatment is to transition. Absolutely everything else has been tried. And believe me, the medical establishment did try. They have historically been extremely hostile to transsexuals.
