When Cristina Hineman was just 18, she visited Planned Parenthood in Hudson, New York, to explore hormone therapy options to address her gender dysphoria.
According to a new lawsuit Heineman filed against Planned Parenthood, despite facing mental health issues including self-harm, depression, anxiety and autism, after a brief 30-minute evaluation with a nurse practitioner, she Got injected with life-changing testosterone.
Not content with killing millions of babies, Planned Parenthood has branched out.
According to the Free Press, they have become the country’s leading provider of gender transition hormones for young people, based on insurance claims data, and offer the service at nearly 450 locations across their locations.
Insurance claims information provided to the Free Press by the Manhattan Institute shows that at least 40,000 patients visited Planned Parenthood for this purpose last year alone, a number that has increased tenfold since 2017. 40%) are patients aged 18 to 18 years.
Hyman told the Free Press that she realized she had made a terrible mistake and that gender was not the root of her problems. “I was brainwashed,” she says now.
The lawsuit details that she was “severely affected” by pro-trans content online and felt betrayed by health professionals who failed to treat her underlying condition.
Less than a year after starting hormone therapy, Hyman underwent a double mastectomy.
After struggling to recover from the surgery, she shared, “I realized this shouldn’t have happened. Pieces of my body were missing.
Six weeks after her body-altering surgery, Hyman said she stopped taking testosterone and began transitioning.
“I felt bad about everything, my body, my life, and the fact that everyone had played with it for years,” she said.
From the lawsuit:
Plaintiff Christina Hyman (“Plaintiff” or “Christina”)1 is an example of the growing number of young people falling victim to so-called “gender-affirming care,” characterized by immediate, no-questions-asked “affirmation.” “A person’s desired gender identity, regardless of the underlying reason for that desire, is not subject to any mental health evaluation. At every step of Christina’s journey, she and her family sought advice from medical and mental health providers Help to help her deal with depression, anxiety, social rejection or rejection disorder, and other mental health issues.

Christina, now 20, realized the defendant had betrayed her by his lack of care and concern in helping make life-changing medical decisions. The scars on her chest and the irreversible changes to her body caused by long-term testosterone use were a constant reminder that she needed an unbiased medical professional willing to properly evaluate her and provide the care she needed.
Christina humbly asks this court to hold defendants accountable for their wrongful conduct. Plaintiff seeks judgment against all defendants, including compensatory and punitive damages in the maximum allowable amounts, as well as expenses, fees and other relief as this court deems just and appropriate. The plaintiff requested a jury trial.
Heineman wasn’t the only victim.
Soren Aldaco was 17 when she took transgender hormones, and at 19 she underwent a body-changing double mastectomy.
Aldaco, now 22 and a student at the University of Texas at Austin, is suing the medical provider who allegedly mutilated the body, a move she now regrets.
In 2023, a 25-year-old North Carolina woman filed a lawsuit against the doctor who helped her transition when she was just 15 years old.
Transgender Prisha Mosley told Charlie Kirk, “I was promised male puberty, but instead I went through menopause.”
Mosley’s body was disfigured, his voice was deepened, his joints ached, his bones ached, and his face grew hairy, just to name a few of the irreversible side effects.
In July 2023, Chloe Cole spent her 19th birthday in the U.S. House of Representatives reliving her horrific, life-changing experience in “gender-affirming” care.
Cole implored House lawmakers to end child gender change during a hearing on gender-affirming care for minors, sharing heartbreaking details of how her parents were manipulated by sinister “gender experts” into dismembering her .
Remember, Kamala Harris’ running mate Tim Walz has been campaigning to make this disfiguring, life-changing decision more accessible to children.
