Can a transgender male have a period?

Men who are transgenders assigned female at birth still possess uterus, and consequently continue to menstruate as normal. Hormone therapy commonly used in the gender transition brings about a significant decrease or cessation of menstrual bleeding. In order to get personalized advice regarding the management of menstrual health for those going through gender transition, a specialist in transgender medicine or endocrinology needs to be consulted.

Can I develop feminine breasts naturally without surgery?

There are non-surgical options to consider. Methods involving hormones that cause breast development, such as the administration of estrogen or the use of progesterone, could be effective. The use of the hormonal valve of these aids is advised only medically and not as a means for self-reliance since it can have side effects on health.  I advise you to get in touch with a healthcare professional for a consultation so they can give you the right advice and direction considering your health condition and also investigate the effectiveness of the treatment.

Can I identify as trans without gender dysphoria?

You can certainly express your identity as a woman without experiencing significant discomfort associated with your assigned gender. Many individuals may identify diversely, and not everyone feels distress, which is essential to acknowledge. It's important to explore your feelings and experiences. Connecting with supportive communities can also be beneficial. However, discussing your thoughts and identity with a plastic surgeon can provide additional insights and guidance tailored to your needs.

Can I undergo surgery to change gender at 23?

Biologically a female aged 23 cannot be totally changed to a male by surgery. The fact remains that sex is defined by chromosomes. On the other hand, some transgender individuals might refer to surgeries in this area to alter their looks. Whoever is struggling with the gender issue, should get the consultation of a counselor who focuses on the theme of gender identity to reflect and discuss their feelings and the possibilities of their solution.

Can a transgender woman get a period?

No, transgender women cannot get a period. 

A trans lady is a transgender person,

  • Who has become male to female and
  • Women who were designated to be male at birth are considered transgender. 

A trans woman lacks ovaries and a uterus because she was born with masculine gender identity. Trans women do not bleed or menstruate because they do not have uteruses, which shed and flow during menstruation. It is not possible for even those transgender women who have undergone sexual reassignment surgery (vaginoplasty).
