Via Reddit: An Australian schoolboy who decided to transition into a female has changed his mind two years later.
At just 12-years-old, Patrick Mitchell, begged with his mother to begin taking oestrogen hormones after doctors diagnosed him with gender dysphoria – a condition where a person experiences distress because there is a mismatch between their biological sex and gender identity.
“You wish you could just change everything about you, you just see any girl and you say I'd kill to be like that”, Mitchell told 60 Minutes.
After heeding advice from professionals who suggested that it was right choice, his mother was fully supportive and Mitchell began to transition.
He grew out his hair and started to take the hormones, which caused his body to grow breasts. But two years on, Mitchell had a change of heart.
In the beginning of 2017, teachers at school began to refer to him as a girl which triggered Mitchell to question if he had made the right decision.
“I began to realise I was actually comfortable in my body. Every day I just felt better,” he told Now To Love.

Very common. Until he confronts the idea there are only 2 sexes/genders, he's going to be in and out of the chop shops.
transitioned to female and changed her mind
Well, duhh.
There is a gender for the undecided. It's one of those letters in the alphabet. You can never be wrong about your gender, even if you change it by the hour, but damn!, the budget for clothes has got to be a drain.
Wait, a twelve year old changes his or her mind? Holy moley, that sounds like NEWS!
They even change their voice. Probably a bit awkward walking around like a 12 yr old girl with the voice of 60 year old woman smoker.
I have never seen anyone make a good argument for this shit. They always collapse into slogans and reduce it to the argument that it's what some people want, so we have to just accept it to be enlightened.
I personally self-identify as your god, so get down and pray bitches. I feel powerful tonight, becuase it's FRIIIIDAAAAAYYYY!,
