Do you wish you had transitioned earlier? When?
Are you regretting not doing it back then; or do you just now have a suitable life situation for it?
Or are you those people who don't believe in regret? Do you want to view it the way that you'll take full responsibility for you actions/inaction and are just okay with how your life went?
Or are you content you transitioned at the time you did? Or are doing it? Is this just the perfect time for it? Why?

As for me...
Well, I sorta kinda regret not having to... Though I very much tried at 16. But faced some transphobia etc. and couldn't blah blah... It really hit me hard back then. And dramatically affected my life, not gonna deny that!
But I do take full responsibility for my inaction since then. I've been planning to transition whole this time - but just didn't/couldn't for a variety for reasons.
So I wouldn't say I regret
per se... After all that was my decision! I more of wish I had had more resilience back then plus support to work things out at the time. I don't like to view myself as a victim of any kind. I take full responsibility. And I don't believe in regret. I understand I made the decisions I made with the knowledge I had at the time.
Overall though not having transitioned has hugely affected my life and well-being in general. So don't recommend it...! If you in any way can, just do it! So in general I do wish I had transitioned earlier, at 16+, at the time I wanted to. But I didn't, so I just didn't, as simple as that. Regretting it doesn't help at least!
On the other hand I didn't for so many reasons... one of them being that I've just now come to a point in my life I have many things sorted out. I'm just in a completely different place right now than I used to be back then. So in a way I guess this is the right time for me then.
At least I don't get to say, 'what if I had enjoyed living as a woman after all; now I'll never know' or something like that!

Just saw this:
https://www.inc.com/benjamin-p-hardy/what-happens-when-you-take-full-responsibility-of-.htmlFour realities exist:1.Indecision is potentially your greatest threat.
2.Most people are "drifting," which means they haven't taken command of their mind or their life. Drifting is when you let external circumstances determine where you go in life.
3.Just before any substantial breakthroughs, you will experience darkness and defeat.
4.When you take control of your mind, you realize the quality of your thinking reflects your current potential.
