Nearly a decade after pursuing a disastrous medical transition, Prisha Mosley has sued the doctors and therapists who encouraged her to make life-altering changes to her body, accusing them of medical malpractice, fraud, and other abuses.

North Carolina–based medical professionals — including general practitioners, a plastic surgeon, and a counselor — lied to Mosley, now 25, when they told her she was a boy and misrepresented the reality of what testosterone injections and breast-removal surgery would do to her developing female body, Mosley’s attorneys wrote in a complaint filed in North Carolina district court last month.
