Chloe Cole | Dr. J Show Episode 196
Chloe Cole is a detransitioner and describes herself as a “former trans kid” She was diagnosed with gender dysphoria at 9 years old and was treated by Kaiser Permanente in the San Francisco Bay Area between the ages of 13 and 17. She was a tomboy who thought of herself as a social misfit. She started thinking about transitioning after creating an Instagram account and being recommended lots of LGBTQ content: “Social media introduced this idea that I could be a boy.”
In eighth grade, Chloe was sexually assaulted and she began binding her breasts with chest binders. She was prescribed puberty blockers at age 13, and a month later, she was injected with large doses of opposite sex hormones (which permanently lowered her voice). Chloe had a double mastectomy at age 15, in June 2020. At age 16, she realized that she would never be able to breastfeed. “I decided to stop transitioning entirely,” Chloe explains. “It was too much for me, and I knew that I couldn’t keep lying to myself.”
In early 2023, Chloe filed a lawsuit against Kaiser Permanente along with the individual endocrinologist, psychiatrist, and plastic surgeon involved in her mutilation. She is represented by Harmeet Dhillon of the Center for American Liberty. Her chemical “treatment” and amputation included “off label” drugs and “amounted to medical experimentation,” and she was not given adequate information to provide informed consent.
As a result of harmful “treatment,” she developed joint pain, weak bone density, and ongoing urinary tract infections. She also charges that doctors did not inform her parents of alternative, less invasive treatments like psychiatric care, and that they told her that her gender dysphoria would “never resolve unless she chemically and surgically transitioned.”
Chloe recently testified before the U.S. House Judiciary Subcommittee about her opposition to transgender “treatment” for minors: www.YouTube.com/watch?v=DSGgR3W_jjg
