Detransitioner who thought he was trans says he regrets treatment

Detransitioner bitterly regrets having testicles removed after struggling with being gay

  • A young man, known only as Kobe, has revealed how he bitterly regrets going through  
  • Kobe told Fox News that older trans people told him to play the ‘suicide tactics’ in order to be granted a transition, at the age of 13 after being ‘indoctrinated’
  • After turning on his decision, Kobe is now taking testosterone and regrets his decision to have his testicles removed

A young man who formerly identified as a transwoman after being castrated by doctors has warned others not to follow in his footsteps. 

The young man, known only as Kobe, has revealed how he bitterly regrets his decision to transition and was told to ‘play the suicide card’ by older trans people in order to receive treatment.

He began puberty blockers at 13, had his testicles removed at 19 – and now suffers from severe spinal pain he fears could be osteoporosis, with puberty blockers linked to bone injuries.  

Speaking to Fox News, he has detailed how despite his thoughts of being trans he now realizes he was an ‘effeminate’ gay boy who enjoyed playing with Barbies, but who felt uncomfortable with his sexuality. 

Kobe also told the outlet that had he not been ‘indoctrinated’ to gender ideology, he probably would have stayed as such. 

He said: ‘I was always an effeminate boy, I was very feminine growing up. I liked Barbie’s, I liked pink.’

At age eleven, Kobe, pictured here, said he told his parents that he was transgender, which was quickly rebuffed.

Kobe continued: ‘If I was never indoctrinated I think I would have just stayed an effeminate boy. I saw it as a way out of my homosexuality.

At age eleven, he said he told his parents that he was transgender, which was quickly rebuffed.

It wasn’t until a few years later at the age of 13 that Kobe again came out as transgender and said that he used ‘suicide tactics’ to transition.

He said: ‘I started using the suicide tactics, transition or death. It’s such an unhealthy mindset.

‘The older trans people teach us to say that stuff to get the health care and everything.’

From there, he was placed on puberty blockers and then estrogen at the age of 16 before he later had castration surgery at 19. 

Despite all of this, Kobe said that it did nothing to help with his mental health and wasted time. 

Kobe continued: ‘I was like, ‘Oh, wow, this is so great. I’m locked in my transition, but then everything started to crack and I couldn’t ignore the complications.

‘I couldn’t ignore that I mutilated myself pretty much with the permission of a psychiatrist. It’s insane now, looking back. It’s just self-harm, you know.’ 

He now suffers from permanently stunted growth because of the puberty blockers and also suffers from chronic pain in his spine and is to be checked for osteoporosis.

As well as Fox News, Kobe had also appeared on the podcast of Benjamin Boyce to talk of his decision.

Kobe also developed an eating disorder from taking the hormonal drugs which caused issues with his metabolism. 

Despite being off the hormone drugs for months, Fox reported that even during their interview Kobe had to stop numerous times after they impaired his cognition. 

In an approval letter giving him the go ahead for hormone replacement therapy, it labelled Kobe as being happy and mentally stable. 

Despite this, he told the outlet: ‘None of it was true. I wasn’t mentally stable. I hated myself. I wanted to die, and I just was constantly trying to become something that wasn’t.’

His surgery was then cancelled and he instead opted to have his testes removed as a ‘middle ground’ believing that testosterone was ‘poison’.

Kobe had family acceptance and ‘passed’ as a girl but, after all the interventions, he was still unhappy.

Now taking testosterone, which he will have to do for the rest of his life, he said he feels ‘alive again’

Without gonads, Kobe will have to take testosterone artificially for the rest of his life, which he started taking recently.

On taking testosterone, he said: ‘I feel alive again. I feel confident. I just, I feel great. And it just goes to show that cross-sex hormones are bad.’

As for his future plans, he said: ‘It’s just reconnecting with stuff that I used to enjoy before getting sucked into all of this. 

‘Because the time I lived as trans, I had no hobbies or interests, I had nothing really. It was just becoming this caricature of a woman and everything that’s based around that.

‘I’m trying to reclaim my manhood now and everything. It’s hard. I have breasts, I have the hip development of a woman because I started the estrogen young. 

‘I have no gonads. You know, it’s hard. My skull never really masculinized.’

When asked about what he wants people to know about him, Kobe said: ‘I see myself as very strong for what I went through. I’m a pretty compassionate person. 

‘I do care about kids that are suffering with gender dysphoria and everything. And I think that they deserve help. But I don’t think that that helps.’
