At 15 years old, I told my parents I thought I might be trans and was referred to a psychologist once my PCP was informed.

Then, at 16 years old, after only 5 months of therapy, I underwent a double mastectomy for gender dysphoria.

I started hormones after the surgery.

None of that was enough for me, I still felt incomplete and desperate.

At 17 years old, I had implants put in my face to appear more masculine.

At 19 I detransitioned.

I had my facial implants removed, I stopped testosterone, and I now deal with horrible health issues.

I have my breast reconstruction surgery this month and I'm hoping to move forward in life and continue advocating for children and other detrans people.

After my transition, I am left with immense scarring, countless health issues, nerve damage, and possible infertility.

I am autistic and had trauma previous to transition, my doctors and psychologists were all informed of this but still chose to tell my parents and myself that without transitioning I would end up committing suicide due to my gender dysphoria.
