Prisha Mosley is the latest detransitioner to sue her doctors, in lawsuits that may prove pivotal in a heated debate about trans rights and medical procedures, especially those on children.
- A doctor told Mosley she would ‘grow a penis’ from testosterone jabs
- Medics were more interested in money and glory than helping her, it is claimed

Mosley discovered transgenderism online and started socially transitioning to being a boy aged 15, believing it would help her anorexia, anxiety, depression, and recover from a sexual assault she endured when she was 14.
The defendants ‘lied to and misled her into these treatments and procedures for the purpose of making money off of her and bolstering their credentials in the emerging field of so-called gender-affirming care,’ it is claimed.
Dr Perry in January 2015 diagnosed Mosley with a gender identity crisis after an 80-minute session and pushed her onto having testosterone shots, it is claimed.
This was over objections from her parents, who said their daughter had other problems that needed treatment — but they were sidelined from key medical decisions, the papers allege.
She joins a growing list of young people who undergo irreversible trans medical procedures, but who regret them and sue the doctors and therapists who they say fast-tracked them onto drugs and surgery.
