A Mother’s Regret: How Transitioning Affected My Life and Motherhood

[Social Media]

 

Prisha Mosley, a 26-year-old mother from Michigan, stood before a crowd outside the U.S. Supreme Court, sharing her deeply personal story. The Court was hearing arguments on whether transgender healthcare should be accessible to minors—a topic stirring both passion and controversy among the throngs of demonstrators waving banners and chanting slogans. Among the voices that day, Prisha’s account carried a somber weight.

“I will suffer for the rest of my life for believing in my confusion those who perpetuate these cruel lies,” she declared, addressing the crowd. Prisha recounted the anguish of transitioning from female to male as a teenager, only to later regret her decision and return to her birth gender. Her journey was shaped by early struggles with anxiety, depression, and anorexia, during which she turned to online forums and encountered gender dysphoria activists. “When I was too young, people tried to warn me, and those people were painted as transphobes by the very medical professionals who were poisoning me,” she said.

 

In an interview with *The Telegraph*, Prisha revealed the lasting consequences of her transition, which began with hormone therapy and puberty blockers before leading to a double mastectomy at age 18. Now, years later, she faces chronic pain, relies on hormone treatments, and lives with the profound effects of her decisions. After giving birth to her son six months ago, she found herself unable to breastfeed. “My chest is numb, and I don’t feel my baby when I hold him there,” she shared. The milk trapped in her chest cannot reach her nipples due to the surgical alterations made during her mastectomy—a procedure she now describes as “butchery.”

 

At the time of her transition, Prisha felt validated by her doctors, who she said quickly categorized her as transgender without exploring other possible causes for her feelings. “Okay, your body is wrong. Let’s give you medicine for it,” was their response, she recalled. While her parents supported the treatment then, they now feel misled. “They were lied to by the activist doctors who were treating me,” she said.

 

Prisha’s story was one of many voices outside the court that day, where demonstrators were starkly divided. On one side, rainbow flags and signs demanding trans rights rippled in the cold air. On the other, protesters called for caution, holding banners reading “stop the harm” and chanting through sound systems, “leave kids alone.” Metal railings and a significant police presence kept the two camps apart, but the ideological chasm was palpable.

 

Looking back, Prisha expressed a sense of betrayal. “I really thought that my doctors were my saviours and my heroes, and I trusted them. But through growing up and facing the effects of gender-destroying harm, I lost my health and found myself completely alone,” she said. Her transition began with a prescription for Depo-Provera at age 16 to halt her periods, followed by testosterone treatments at 17, which brought what she described as “almost immediate” and “permanent” changes. Now, having detransitioned, she depends on progesterone and estrogen supplements to regulate her hormones.

 

The double mastectomy, or “top surgery,” performed when Prisha was 18, marked a critical turning point. The procedure left her with enduring complications, which became more pronounced after her pregnancy. “I wasn’t warned what could happen,” she said. Her nipples, which were removed, reshaped, and repositioned during the surgery, now block milk from flowing. “They were sewn into the wrong spot so that my chest could look like a boy’s chest.”

 

Prisha’s decision to detransition came two and a half years ago after meeting her boyfriend. Now 24, she reflects on her journey with a mix of pain and resilience, speaking out in the hope that her story will serve as a cautionary tale for others.

There's no question that there should be prohibitions against any level of transition prior to the age of 18. Youths simply don't have the capacity to make a wise enough decision and parents should be able to say NO. There's a reason why the suicide rate of  people who have transitioned is so high, especially amongst those who started to transition at a very young age.

 

And the medical establishment is very culpable there's a tremendous amount of money in this transition industry and they share some of the blame for the permissive nature of society.

Surgery and medication for transitioning should never be given to under 18's. 

 

Teenagers often face mental health issues but they should be treated as such, not shoehorned into an excuse to cut off their body parts or block their puberty.

 

Let them dress as the other sex if they wish, they'll probably grow out of it and it will be nothing more than an embarrassing story for their siblings to tease them about over Xmas lunch when they grow up, much as I tease my sister over her "Madonna phase".

Surprise! Surprise! When are people going to understand transitioning is dangerous if done without a proper dysphoria diagnostic. The transgender lobby should be resisted and young people warned about its nefarious activities. How many similar cases have been recorded so far? Such testimonies should be front-page news. The "doctors" who perform unnecessary transition surgeries should be prosecuted and kicked out of the medical profession.

Will Dave Bautista feel the same?

Calling puberty blockers and genital mutilation "transgender healthcare" or "gender affirming healthcare" is as ridiculous as calling abortion reproductive rights.

Nothing under 18 seems like the only common sense way to go.  The people praying on children need to be stopped.  Even over 18 they need counselling and shouldn't rush into it.

 

It's awful that they've been allowed to do the damage they have done so far.

 

There'll probably be hundreds or thousands of these cases coming up in the next 5-10 years.  Many suicides as well.

 

It's very cruel.  People need to protect children from this and not let accusations of "transphobia" put them off.

They need to be prosecuted, not just stopped. These people are monsters, perhaps well-meaning monsters, but monsters none the less.

I'd like to believe that they are well meaning, but I think their obsession with propagating trans ideology means they couldn't care less about the people they are harming.

child abuse + hope parents pay out of pocket, not insurance or free anything

 

surgeons, hospitals are the one's gaining from these costly mutilations...

 

when they cut of clit and lips in african young girls, outrage in the west

 

when they actually sterilize young kids with mental problems...start to think it is a good thing, that they will not reproduce anymore...

Say 25, women's brain is not completely developed before the age of 22, men around 30. Add mental health issues on top of that. It is not an official matter, what sex kids or grown up chooses. And should not be a political matter at all. People have to get used to be what they are, not try to fix something that is not by nature. The whole debate is stupid, and a political suicide.

 

The fully formed brains of women and men are almost the same, but the rate of development is substantially different. Girls reach the halfway point of brain development at 11 years of age and the brain is fully developed at 21-22. Boys reach the halfway point at 15 and the brain does not finish developing until 30.

At least she overcame that disorder. Many don't. 

 

 I knew 2 geezers that "transitioned" in their 60s. One killed himself three years later after expressing deep regret about having his willy chopped off. We tried to tell him that the problem was between his ears, not his legs, to no avail.

I have two friends who where "normal" and started on ssri, who also killed themselves. 

 

So suicide doesn't say much really, except people who struggle try many things to get better, and when fail, suicide is one method to escape. 

 

When suicide statistics is used to force their way to have something that might not just be a sexual gender "fixations" or confused, or conviction, there is something wrong with the society, and forced upon people, teachers, kids,

Trying to dominate nature never ends well, your gender is the one you were born with, if you don't like it the problem is psychological not physical. It seems to be a first world problem, this is different from homosexuality which comes within the natural spectrum of sexuality in all societies, even in the animal kingdom, butchering ones body isn't normal behaviour, condoning it is a testament of what is wrong with our society.

I agree with a lot of what you say, and it makes me reflect on the fact that when I wake up every morning and look in the mirror I'm totally satisfied with my gender and my sexuality, and I guess that's quite a huge blessing to have in life, considering how many people are confused and unhappy about that kind of thing. 

 

Life is complicated enough, can you just imagine how complicated it would be if you wanted to change your gender? Yikes.

And how it would be even more complicated if there were people telling you that you actually could change your gender?
