The population is small and more studies are needed.

I found this:

Unfortunately the suicide risk is still very high even for post transition trans population.

So I'm unfortunately unable to access that paper - well, without paying $32 which is a bit steep - but does it have anything on the difference between people who transitioned and ones who did not? That's what matters after all, not the base rates. (Base rates being high tells us we really need to find a treatment, but it doesn't tell us what that treatment might be)
