“Former trans kid” Chloe Cole was put on puberty blockers and testosterone at age 13, had a double mastectomy at 15, and then detransitioned at 16. She is now suing those who permitted these medical treatments to be done on a minor girl.
An 18-year-old woman who had a double mastectomy of her healthy breasts at the age of 15 in service to gender dysphoria is suing the doctors who emotionally and physically damaged her by allowing her to consent to medical transition when she was a vulnerable teenager. Chloe Cole is accusing them of being “liars and mutilators.”
Cole, who describes herself as a “former trans kid,” was put on puberty blockers and testosterone at age 13, had a double mastectomy at 15, and then detransitioned at 16. She is now suing those who “performed, supervised, and/or advised transgender hormone therapy and surgical intervention,” in an attempt to ensure that no other young people are harmed by doctors the way she was.
“My teenage life has been the culmination of excruciating pain, regret, and most importantly injustice,” said Cole. “I have been emotionally and physically damaged and stunted by so-called medical professionals in my most important developmental period. I was butchered by an institution that we trust more than anything else in our lives.”
