18-year-old California woman is suing doctors for removing her breasts when she was just THIRTEEN

A California woman is suing the hospital that removed her breasts when she was 13, claiming her doctors pushed her into the procedure under the ‘mistaken belief’ that she transgenderism.

Kayla Lovdahl, now 18, says she underwent invasive surgery after she was medical experts urged to ‘forget’ the plans when she was only 11 years old.

According to the lawsuit Lovdahl filed against Kaiser Foundation Hospitals and four doctors, Kayla was “handed a prescription pad and allowed her naïve, emotional, childish rollercoaster of emotions to dictate the so-called ‘treatment’ she would receive .’

The legal challenge comes amid a growing chorus of young people who are ‘going away’, many of them they claim to have received death threats and intimidation after turning their backs on the ‘cult’ transgender community.

Kayla Lovdahl, now 18, says she was urged by medical professionals to have surgeries for ‘fun’ when she was just 11 years old.

After years of struggling with mental health issues, Lovdahl claims she was “exposed to online transgender influencers” who “mistakenly” believed she was transgender when she was 11 years old.

Lovdahl claims her parents were told, “Better to have a living son than a dead daughter”

Unsure of how best to support her, her parents sought medical help, which quickly sent her down a path of risky treatments.

She took puberty blockers and testosterone until age 12, although she never received a proper psychological evaluation, according to the lawsuit.

Amid concerns about possible operations, Lovdahl’s doctors reportedly told her parents: ‘It is better to have a living son than a dead daughter’.

She claims her entire transition evaluation took only 75 minutes, as Lovdahl claims the process that led her to the surgery was “profit-driven, ideological medical abuse.”

Within six months, Lovdahl underwent a double mastectomy, a decision she now regrets after going through with it a year ago.

Lovdahl suffered from severe mental illness as a child, which she believes was overlooked by doctors when they pushed for her to become transgender.

Years after undergoing a double mastectomy at the age of 13, Lovdahl now says the procedure left her with ‘deep physical and emotional wounds and deep regret’.

Her lawsuit condemned the system that allowed her to undergo invasive surgery at such a young age, saying, “There is no other field of medicine where doctors would surgically remove a perfectly healthy part of the body and deliberately cause a diseased state of pituitary dysfunction simply based on the wishes of a young adolescent. .’

After breaking her transition, she says she began regular psychotherapy sessions to help with her mental health, “which is the care she should be receiving at all times,” the lawsuit states.

“The vast majority of cross-identified children, if treated in early adolescence, run the risk of regretting the decision after they are old enough to realize their losses,” Lovdahl added.

She said the ordeal had left her with “deep physical and emotional wounds and severe remorse”.

She also claims the hospital and doctors failed to provide her and her parents with proper ‘informed consent’ to initiate therapy sessions, which she says was never offered.

In a statement, her lawyers criticized the proceedings as a “crazy form of child abuse”.

“We believe cases like this are the best way to stop them, especially in liberal states like California, where reckless ideologues are pushing this radical agenda,” said attorney Charles Limandri.
