ServicesGender Reassignment
- Gender Reassignment
It is a surgical series of procedures where a patient has altered their appearance to resemble their identified gender. It is also known as gender confirmation or sex reassignment surgery. It helps people to transition to their identified and desired genders.
Who Can Get Gender Reassignment?
Anyone who identifies themselves as their opposite sex can easily get a gender reassignment surgery. It is important for people to feel comfortable in their own skin, so the procedure usually comes with therapy to make sure patients feel at ease and compatible.
How Is Gender Reassignment Performed?
There are differences depending on the desired gender. However, all the operations are done under anesthesia. If the patient is female and they identify as a male, then they can get their uterus, ovaries removed. Their breast tissues are removed. However, if it is male, then the testicles are removed. If it is needed, the patient can get breast injections to feel more feminine.
Gender Reassignment Techniques
There are actually different types of gender reassignment techniques depending on the condition of the patient. Not everyone might do a full transition, so it is possible to get top or bottom surgeries. Gender reassignment surgery actually involves transining the face, chest and the genitalia of the patient. The facial reconstructive surgeries transition their patient’s faces to more feminine or more masculine to their desired genders. Top surgery removes the breast tissue or shapes the breast for a feminine appearance. Bottom surgery reconstructs genitalia for their identified gender.
Gender Reassignment Advantages
A lot of people who identify themselves as their opposite sex might deal with gender dysphoria. It can create a quite amount of stress and affect their daily lives quite negatively. So, matching their gender identity with their physical body can help a lot for patients who experience dysphoria.
