Genders are physically assigned at birth, but
some people think they were born in the incorrect body, so they decide to alter
their gender.
Transgender surgery is a long and laborious
process.
To begin, one must establish their gender
identification.
This is followed by a period of adjustment in
terms of their social environment, their hormone levels, and, eventually,
reassignment surgery.
Why some transsexuals never undergo transition?
Many transsexuals, on the other hand, never go through the process of transitioning.
As a starting point, it is incredibly costly.
It can cost as much as $100,000 to build one of these.

In addition, it takes a lot of time to complete the process. Some physical changes occur in as short as a month. However, it may take up to 5 years to see the full impact and has a lower success rate than male to female transition due to the difficulties of producing a male functioning organ.
Mastectomy (top surgery)
Mastectomy, sometimes known
as "top surgery," is generally the first and, in some cases, the only
surgical operation performed on a transgender patient who is transitioning.
Mastectomy is a surgical procedure that removes excess breast
tissue to give the chest a more masculine look.
Use of testosterone
During the female to male transition, the body receives testosterone, which aids in the development of secondary masculine features that inhibit feminine physical qualities.
It also causes a deepening of the voice, a rise in sex drive, changes in body structure, fat cell rearrangement, clitoris growth, an increase in energy, and the cessation of menstruation.
So it answers the question regarding the once-a-month discomfort.
Facial
Masculinization Surgery
Facial masculinization surgery (FMS)
refers to a variety of treatments that can be used to give the face a more
chiseled and masculine appearance.
FMS is a critical component of the
female-to-male transition since face characteristics provide crucial visual
clues as to one's gender.
Because each patient undergoing FMS
will have distinct objectives and demands, the doctors at ICTC will collaborate
with you to develop a personalized surgical strategy.
FMS may consist of a mix of forehead
lengthening/augmentation, cheek augmentation, rhinoplasty, chin recontouring,
jaw contouring, and thyroid cartilage enhancement.
(Surgery on Adam's Apple)
Body masculinization surgery (BMS) is an excellent choice for transmen seeking a more masculine shape throughout their upper and lower bodies. The classic masculine form consists of a wide and defined upper torso, a trim waist, and little fat in the lower body. While diet, exercise, and hormone therapy can all help to masculinize the body, some regions of fat accumulation might be impossible to alter without surgery. BMS is a liposuction method that targets fat in the flanks, inner and outer thighs, upper torso, chest, back, and/or buttocks to produce a manly figure and minimize the feminine "hourglass" appearance.
Bottom surgery
Meanwhile, the bottom surgery modifies the
individual's genitals to fit the gender identification. A preparatory operation
is performed to remove the feminine organs, including the womb and ovaries.
They are then subjected to phalloplasty surgery
to install erectile prostheses.
However, the treatment also eliminates several
dangers.
There is no way to avoid postoperative
discomfort after having surgery.
There is also the possibility of infection, bleeding,
or the need to return for repair
Reminder
One final reminder: gender reassignment surgery is irreversible, therefore the person must be completely committed and ready to accept the outcome.
There have been reports of socially and emotionally unstable people, as well as unstable bodies built for the new gender, who do not fare well following surgery.
There have been no instances of intraoperative mortality, although gender reassessment carries the risk of failure or disappointment with the expected outcomes.
