UCLA Student Sues Doctors for Alleged Fast-Track Gender Transition Negligence

A UCLA student, Kaya Clementine Breen, is suing California healthcare providers for medical negligence, claiming she was misdiagnosed with gender dysphoria and "fast-tracked" into gender transition treatments, including puberty blockers, hormones, and surgery, without adequate mental health evaluation. Breen, who had a history of sexual abuse and mental health issues, argues that her treatment focused solely on gender dysphoria rather than her broader mental health needs. The lawsuit highlights ongoing debates over the provision of gender-affirming care for minors, with Breen seeking both financial compensation and broader changes to prevent similar cases.
