Woman Who Removed Breasts as Transgender Shares Breastfeeding pain

Elizabeth, not her real name, had her breasts removed at 20. Now a Detransitioner at 30 she has a baby boy.

‘It was really hard knowing that he wanted to breastfeed, and I couldn’t give him that. And when they put him on my stomach, he crawled up. He was looking for my breasts and he couldn’t find them,’ she said.

Researcher Professor Karleen Gribble told Daily Mail Australia Elizabeth’s story ‘may be the tip of the iceberg’ and should serve as an early warning signal to others.

‘It is a very serious business to remove the breast of young females and the ramifications for them down the track might be significant and if they do have babies, they are going to need support around that,’ Professor Gribble said.
‘There needs to be greater respect for breastfeeding and its significance for women and children.

‘Once you have a mastectomy there is no such thing as a reversal. This is irreversible surgery it shouldn’t be undertaken lightly.’

Elizabeth claimed the surgeon never discussed breastfeeding with her before the surgery.

‘I don’t think I would have been receptive. I would have felt insulted, and I would have said it’s triggering my gender dysphoria,’ she said.

Elizabeth attributed her gender dysphoria to developing breasts at the age of 10, which led to her being sexually harassed by men.

Detransitioners Are Being Abandoned By Medical Professionals Who Devastated Their Bodies And Minds

Health providers won’t help detransitioners who seek to undo the damage of transgender surgery and hormones.

After being swarmed by health providers who enabled her to medically transition as a minor, Prisha Mosley now says she’s been abandoned by the medical community as she attempts to navigate a complicated and painful detransition.

“I was under the impression that my doctors, who were transitioning me, loved me. They said they didn’t want me to die, they were saving my life, they were worried about me, and they wanted me to be healthy and happy,” Prisha told me. “Clearly, they don’t love me. As soon as it’s not profitable, they don’t want to help.”

Prisha has a slew of medical complications dating back to the more than five years she spent on testosterone and a double mastectomy that a plastic surgeon performed shortly after she turned 18. Many of those complications surround her endocrine system, which encompasses the hormones that regulate nearly every process in the body, from metabolism to growth and development, emotions, mood, sexual function, and sleep.

Love Refuses To Affirm Confusion

Chloe, “The Canary in the Coal Mine”

Chloe Cole was put on puberty blockers and testosterone at 13; she underwent a double mastectomy at 15.

"I wasn't really allowed any time to just be and to just be observed alone without intervention. I mean, it was only about half a year between being diagnosed with gender dysphoria and actually being medicated. So the process for me was very expedited and there weren't really any pushback from any medical professionals," she told Fox News.

Cole began to question her identity at the age of 12. Her parents were advised by medical professionals that she would commit suicide if she wasn't "affirmed" with medical intervention.

"My distraught parents wanted me alive, so they listened to my doctors," Cole previously said at a hearing.

"Because of the testosterone, I have permanent changes to my bone structure that cannot be reversed. And I have issues with my urinary tract, but I'm not sure whether I'll be able to conceive a child or be able to safely carry to term or to birth. And because of the mastectomy, I'll never be able to breastfeed," she said. "Transitioning… affects every area of your life… [including] your ability to conceive children in the first place, and a lot of people don't know whether they want to have children until they're in their thirties or forties or even beyond that."

In August, Cole testified on California's State Senate Judiciary Committee against a bill that would make the state a "sanctuary" for gender surgeries.

"Who here really believes that, as a 15-year-old, I should have had my healthy breasts removed or that it should’ve been an option?" she said. "How many more children’s bodies will be destroyed before you actually listen? What is the sweet spot? 100? 200? 1000?"

"SB107 will open the flood gates for confused children like me to get the gender interventions that many regret. I am the canary in the coal mine."

Cole is working with Do No Harm to get the word out and encourage medical professionals to stand by their Hippocratic oath.
