Mosley v. Emerson et al.

On April 20, 2026, Do No Harm submitted an amicus brief to the North Carolina Court of Appeals supporting detransitioner Prisha Mosley in her lawsuit against those healthcare professionals who she alleges subjected her to sex-rejecting interventions as a minor.

Mosley filed the lawsuit after receiving cross-sex hormones and having her breasts removed, alleging her medical providers misrepresented basic facts and were deceptive about pediatric medical transition.

The trial court initially dismissed Mosley’s medical malpractice claim, concluding the statute of limitations had passed. And although the North Carolina legislature enacted a new law extending the statute of limitations for med mal claims like Mosley’s, the trial court refused to revive the claim and further granted summary judgment to the defendants on Mosley’s other fraud claims.

Do No Harm’s brief in support of Mosley highlights that multiple systematic reviews have determined that the evidence for puberty blockers, cross sex hormones, and surgeries in minors is insufficient to demonstrate benefit and documents significant risks and safety concerns with these procedures.
