Detransition: Für sie war die Geschlechtsangleichung der falsche Weg | reporter

👩🏼🧑🏼👩🏼 Nele is detrans. This means she underwent a transition, a gender reassignment surgery – not just through testosterone, but also with surgery. This is how Nele became Peer, a trans man. Then she realized that gender reassignment wasn't the right path for her. Today, she's Nele again and no longer identifies as transgender. 🏥 Lisa accompanies Nele to the clinic where she had her gender reassignment surgery and journeys with her into her past. Nele explains how she first came to the idea of ​​being trans, how she changed her name, and why she now says: "I'm no longer transgender." The two also meet Nele's friend Ellie. She underwent a transition as a teenager but now – at 21 – also lives as a woman. The funk format "reporter" ended on December 31, 2023.

There are few studies on this topic, especially long-term observations. This is because young people who are trans have only had the option of taking such measures for a few years. Therefore, there are no reliable figures on how many people are detransitioning in Germany. 👩🏼‍⚖️👨🏼‍⚖️ In February 2020, the German Ethics Council exchanged views with doctors, therapists, and affected individuals on the topic of trans identity in children and adolescents. The resulting ad-hoc recommendation states: “The reasons for the significant increase in the number of people seeking treatment and counseling, a high proportion of whom are (assigned at birth) female adolescents, are controversial and urgently require further clarification. The long-term effects of medical treatments also need to be further investigated to place the difficult prognostic decisions on a better empirical basis.” 🌈 To raise awareness, Nele and her friend Ellie founded the project “Post trans.” You can find it here: https://post-trans.com 📲 The film mentions eating disorders and depression.
