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.
Answered on 12th Dec '24
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.

Hi, I would like to have FTM hormons and surgery on a vety good level and results, how much in New Delhi
Answered on 4th Dec '24
In case you are thinking about using the FTM hormones and having surgery to get a perfect result in New Delhi, it should be pointed out that this practice is a part of transitioning from female to male people. Gender dysphoria is generally expressed through the person's feeling that the gender identity that the person was born with is inappropriate and does not agree with the person's innate gender. Hormone therapy and surgery can help reunite gender and sex. Make sure to approach a specialized doctor in New Delhi who has the necessary experience in providing these treatments for the best outcomes.
Asked for Female, 23
Can it possible 23 age female can change herself into male by surgery and have male part
Answered on 4th Dec '24
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.

What is the healing process after Plastic Surgery?
Answered on 4th Dec '24
When the body is injured or broken the proper healing is due to the body itself making itself healthy again. There could be a slight bruising that you might experience which is, in fact, a usual condition and should wear off in time. The performance of the surgery is dependent on your cooperation with the doctor. Thus, you must abide by the directives given to a T by your doctor. It is principally of high importance to the individual to have a good portion of time devoted to rest, to the intake of foods that are of high nutritional value, and to the avoidance of physically demanding activities as recommended. If you happen to see any rare signs, or you have some doubts, do not be afraid to let your doctor know about it so he can guide you through the whole process.

Androgenetic alopecia, or genetic hair loss, can start as early as the teenage years. Key signs include excessive hair fall and a widening part. This happens because hair follicles shrink over time. To slow down hair loss and promote regrowth, you can use treatments like minoxidil (Rogaine) or finasteride (Propecia). Additionally, it's important to maintain a well-balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals essential for hair health.

Hi, my chest are diff size
Answered on 8th July '24
It is not rare that individuals have somewhat unequal sizes of the chest. Sometimes, it may be more prominent but, doesn't bother people much; if anything, clothing usually hides this fact well enough. If there is no pain or other symptoms then there’s probably nothing to worry about either–the most important thing is how you feel. If an increase in size comes with pain, shortness of breath or a feeling of something being wrong then visit a doctor for some advice.

I've had multiple implants and implants removal surgeries, after the surgeries, I am sweating a lot, I request (only if possible) my medications be some kind of tablets
Answered on 11th July '24
In most cases, post-implant surgeries include sweat because of healing. This kind of sweat is indicative of steps taken by the body to get rid of additional heat. If you feel sweaty, it means that there is a process happening which is normal for a person having anxiety or activity. Drinking water and wearing light clothes may help, however, it is better to keep cool and stay hydrated. If after all these you still face excessive sweating, please let your plastic surgeon know.
Asked for Other, 56
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.
Answered on 3rd Dec '24
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.

I was born with a very thick face and chin and have had it all my life despite never being overweight and living a healthy life. Now I'm 16 years old and have a slimmer face and chin, but I'm still quite fat in those places. I would be very grateful if someone could tell me what causes this and if there is any effective way to remove it. I can also add that I was late into puberty with growth.

Puberty after the age of sixteen combined with an insult to your hormones can cause fat to be collected in the body and face. Apart from this, a plastic surgeon might also inform the patient about options for losing weight in the targeted areas, however, before getting any such procedure it has to be ascertained that he or she doesn't have any underlying medical conditions.

The price of a tummy tuck procedure can be influenced by other factors such as surgeon’s fees, facility charge, anesthesia and location.

Asked for Female, 46
Hi. I am 46 years old mother of 2 children aged 13 and 4yrs. In September 2021 I got liposuction and tummy tuck done. After 6 weeks of wearing the prescribed compression garments and daily massages post surgery, I started noticing big, hard eruptions on my stomach area. Some are red and some are very painful. The doctor punctured one of the eruptions to see if any fluid came out but it did not. He then ask me to use Tbac and put me on anti inflammatory medicine+ flexon. Then one day from the eruption i noticed a pus like fluid. Went to the doctor again. A pus culture was done. No bacteria found. Doctor said looks like it is a suture issue with my body not being able to get rid of the dissolvable stitches. He gave me tricort injections on the hard lumps. Now almost 3 weeks later, some are better but new large and painful ones have also formed. Please advise your thoughts on this and what you feel could be wrong. I am very worried.
Answered on 23rd May '24
It is essential to consult with your surgeon or get a second option from another qualified health provider. Ongoing difficulties after surgery should be investigated carefully and may require imaging studies to evaluate the situation. All suture-related concerns, infections, or any other complications should be ruled out.

Follow your surgeon’s particular advice and contact them directly for personalized information about alcohol intake after rhinoplasty.
