This study appears to focus on breast reduction surgeries, which is considered gender-affirming care. It seems to confirm that breast reductions are overwhelmingly performed on cisgendered males regardless of age.

Probably not a high percentage, but intersex babies are routinely "altered" to conform to one gender or another with no concern to what the child may wish in the future. Sometimes without even input from the parent.
