Questions & Answers on "Transgender Surgery" (24)
Will those who are transgender have children?
Male | 30
Transgender individuals face challenges in naturally conceiving due to medical aspects. Those assigned female at birth and on hormone therapy may have lower fertility. Those assigned male at birth typically cannot get pregnant. Preserving eggs or sperm before transitioning may help those wanting biological kids later. Consulting fertility experts can help transgender people desiring parenthood.

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'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.

Other | 32
It seems like you may be going through some changes about turning into the opposite sex. Understand that these changes are complicated and might need some medical interventions. You might require different amounts of hormones to help you through the process. Talk about what is bothering you and your symptoms with a doctor who can help you figure out the best way forward.

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 male and would like to know how to grow breasts without HRT?
Male | 32
Hormones and surgery are the only ways of growing breasts safely. The appearance of women's breasts in some regions is partly dependent on hormones during puberty and pregnancy. Trying to get a larger breast by force can cause some serious medical issues. If you are worried about your body, it's important to talk to a plastic surgeon for safe and honest guidance.

I am 22 years male. I have gender identity issues. I feel like I don’t fit to this gender.
Male | 22
It is a common thing for lots of people to feel they do not belong to the gender they were given at birth. This is called gender dysphoria. The signs might include feeling weird about your body, clothes, or pronouns people use for you. This happens because your gender identity does not match the sex you were marked at birth. Speaking to a therapist who gets gender identity can help you in finding ways to feel good and supported.

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

I am a 27-year-old male. I have suffered from gender identity disorder since childhood. I want to undergo hormonal feminization therapy. I want help and recommend appropriate treatment.
Male | 27
Gender dysphoria causes discomfort with your assigned gender. You may feel sad or disconnected from your body. Hormonal feminization therapy develops feminine traits by taking female hormones. It helps your physical appearance match your true gender identity. Consult a plastic surgeon specializing in transgender care. They'll guide you through the process, monitor progress, and ensure safety.
