THANK you. I hear these tales constantly, even as a woman it's a repetition of "are you going to bank sperm before you get an orchi? because you might want kids someday", the very notion underlaid by the idea that raising children is What Women Do. And fuck's sake, bone health and cardiovascular health? HRT exists for cis women too, what you're describing is called menopause and it's pretty damn ubiquitous even amongst those who keep their ovaries!

It's a revocation of autonomy for no good reason, in service to a fictional kid who those self-same patriarchial Christians would never want to raise a finger to help if they were in distress -- and actually real, for that matter. I guess because it's easier to care about a fictional kid than a living, breathing, flawed human being sitting in front of you and suffering in the here and now.
