The writer of the article is trans. Stop being transphobic!!
She links to studies for each of those side-effects, which I'll list again:
1. Decreased life expectancy
2. Premature death from heart attacks
3. Premature death from pulmonary embolisms
4. Bone damage
5. Possible liver damage
6. Increased mental-health complications
7. Increases chances of mood-syndrome symptoms
8. Increased suicide rates than the non-trans population
9. 12% higher chance than no trans population to develop symptoms of psychosis
10. Brain development stunted during hormone blockers
11. Reduced chance for lifelong sexual pleasure
12. Probably does not even improve mental health outcomes

Here is what really gets my goat:
What will happen to a biological boy who takes sex hormones associated with the opposite sex (or vice versa) and grows up without the benefit of natural puberty? What happens to a male body on estrogen over the long term? No one knows.
What are the psychological effects on detransitioners? How many detransitioners are there even? No one knows.
Transgenderism: You create by using synthetic hormones and surgery; it a choice. I know I know they say it's not; of course not! Do you know how much money is made off of transitioning children?
============================================
In the UK in ten years hormone blockers generated approximately:
Two million yearly to 50 million yearly: This 4000% spike happened in less than 10 years. Do I need to say anything else? Once you see that you can't play dumb anymore!
============================================
In the UK the number of kids medically transitioning from 2009-2018 went from 96 kids to 2515-4515% increase
============================================
Transgenderism: Is promoted to kids that have gender dysphoria, which is a severe mental illness. What do we know about mental illness? Metal illness distorts reality and throws onto the fire of a brain that has not matured enough to see around corners. Sprinkle in the greed of pharmaceutical corporations, and you have a catastrophe.
80% of children work their way out of gender dysphoria with talk therapy and anxiety medications, and this is a good thing! This is not bad or a transphobic thing, remember I am trans, and I have fully medically transitioned from top to bottom.
We want to give our kids time to grow out of gender dysphoria because here is something people don't talk about, and trans don't speak about. The only people that do are the detrasitioners and thank God for them telling the truth.
==================================
Here is the truth: Medical transition makes gender dysphoria worse! Think I'm kidding? Talk to a therapist that specializes in anorexic children. I guarantee you will not find one that says,
"The best therapy I prescribe to my anorexia patients is a daily class on the benefits of starvation. This works wonders helping with the mental illness of anorexia." Said no therapist in the world ANYWHERE!
