Question 1

can a female after sex change get parts put in to produce sperm to impregnate a female?

No: No testicles, no sperm.

Question 2

when i have my sex change, what are the chances that it will be a fully functional vagina?

Accepted Answer

Good: Discuss in detail with your surgeon so that you  know exactly what you think is true. Remember it is not a real vagina.

Question 3

how much does a male to female sex change cost?

Accepted Answer

Breast/genitals/face: You are discussing many surgeries and not just one. Are you referring  to the genitalia only, or the breasts or the face, or laser hair removal? This is unlikely to cost less than usd 50, 000 and easily could run upwards of usd 100, 000.

Question 4

i am thinking of having a sex change. how do i discuss this with my family?

Accepted Answer

Sex Change: Sexual reassignment surgery is something that requires a lot of thought and counseling. It helps tremendously if you have a good support network of friends, family, and professionals for the mental, hormonal and physical challenges involved. Learn as much as you can beforehand. How to discuss this with your family depends on your situation. Asking a professional who knows more about you may help.

Question 5

can you tell me if i had a sex change to a female can i still get sex desease?

Accepted Answer

Yes: You certainly can, and depending on the disease your chances may increase.

Question 6

is sex change surgery reversible?

Accepted Answer

Depends.: I have worked with the trans community for over 15 years. It is extremely rare to see anyone have sexual reassignment surgery (srs) and change genders "back" again. I have seen it, though. Because srs, facial feminization surgery for MTF individuals, or "top" surgery for FTM folks are all such expensive and involved surgeries, we make every effort to make sure that patients are 100% certain.

Question 7

can sex change my menstrual cycles?

Accepted Answer

Not unless pregnant: Sex will not usually change your cycles unless associated with significant weight loss, stress, or pregnancy. Get a test to ensure that you are not pregnant.

Question 8

should you get a sex change surgery?

Accepted Answer

Complex surgery: This is a complex reconstructive surgical procedure and involves prolonged psychological preparation and adjustment.

Question 9

can i have a sex change surgery to reverse it?

Accepted Answer

Possible but diffic.: This will depend on the techniques used and in some cases itwill be nearly impossible to recinstruct a penis once it has been removed. The reconstruction will likely be a facsimile with a skin tube essentially substituting for erectile tissue. Once a vagina is obliterated, it will be  very difficult to maintain the cavity that was once there. In short consider it nearly irreversible.

Question 10

should i get a sex change surgery? is it reversible?

Accepted Answer

Talk with someone: There are many emotional, psychological and social issues that go into sex reassignmenet surgery.  The best place to start in asking the question about should you consider this surgery is to talk with a psychiatrist about what you are feeling and why you are considering it.
