Answered by Aliya Anchan

Gender reassignment surgeries are of complex nature and you need to see a specialist. I suggest finding a skilled gender confirmation doctor that could talk about the operation, possible risks, and potential results. They can also guide on pre-operative preparation and post-operative care. It’s important to an informed decision and to select a surgeon who has experience and expertise in this field.

Questions & Answers on "Transgender Surgery" (32)

Hey i am onamika "How can I transition from female to male? Please provide a solution, I am asking from Bangladesh."

Female | 20

Transformation goes through various stages that cover the emotional, physical, and social parts of it. Initially, try communicating with a gender counselor to help you out. The gender counselor will be able to provide you with support and guidance that is specific to your journey. Hormone therapy is also needed as part of transitioning to bring the body and the gender one identifies with in accordance. Also, surgery talk with a qualified surgeon may very well be one of the resting centers that you would find of great interest. The point of this is that the transition process is both personal and different to each of us. To begin with, help groups in the community are also a good resource. It is important to first and foremost seek the advice of health professionals before making a decision so that we can assure ourselves of our safety and that we are well-informed.

In ftm hrt, would the physical effects be noticeable? I have family that are very conservative and am just wondering whether they will be able to notice.

Male | 15

Indeed, the physical results of FTM HRT are visible but may differ depending on an individual. It is possible also to identify some physical changes such as a deepening voice, facial and body hair growths, and redistribution of the fatty mass. It is best to consult with a gender-affirming healthcare provider who specializes in trans healthcare

if I have top surgery without T can I develop pecs if I hit the gym a lot?

Male | 18

If you don't take testosterone or undergo top surgery, you can still build your pecs by lifting weights. Pecs, short for pectoral muscles, can grow with exercises like chest presses and push-ups, which target these muscles. Pace yourself, use the correct form, and be consistent with your workouts. Your pecs can still develop even without testosterone.

I'm a 56 year old transgender female and I was taking hormones but had to stop because I just couldn't afford them anymore. I want to take the Opill birth control because of the progestin in it to help increase my breast size even though it will take time. My question to you is will taking the Opill birth control hurt me if I take it long term or will I be fine.

Other | 56

Starting the Opill birth control for breast enlargement can be risky. Use of birth control pills for a long time can cause problems such as high chances of blood clots, weight change, and emotional state. The hormone progestin in the pill can affect my levels of hormones. There are also claims that birth control pills made of progestin can affect the production of hormones. Consult your healthcare provider to make a safe decision and avoid risking negative consequences.

Can it possible 23 age female can change herself into male by surgery and have male part

Female | 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 male have a period?

Other | 43

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.

I am 36 year old married man, I want to breast like a woman breast with out any surgery. If any possibility of this please give me some advice that how it's done.

Male | 37

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.
