Question 2

Accepted Answer

Certainly, if...: If a person modifies their body surgically to better match their gender identity, they are likely transgender. People who are born female, for example, might have a specific kind of breast reduction ("top surgery") to remove their breasts and appear more masculine. They may not elect to surgically modify their genitals, for various reasons - including cost. LGromkoMD

Question 4

how do they create a vaginal hole in a male to female transgender surgery?

Accepted Answer

Procedure: The process of male to female sex reassignment surgery is more involved than simply creating a "vaginal hole."  there are several plastic surgery centers in the us which do the procedure, and it is growing in other countries as well.  You can google for info.  http://www.surgeryencyclopedia.com/pa-st/sex-reassignment-surgery.html.

Question 5

is there a surgeon who can perform ftm transgender bottom surgery near philadelphia?

Accepted Answer

Possibly.: Check up the provider listings in the WPATH.org site (World Professional Association for Transgender Health). On the west coast, look up the websites for Dr. Curtis Crane and Dr. Toby Meltzer. You may also want to contact transgender support organizations and ask your question there. LGromkoMD

Question 6

sir is it possible that transgender man or transgender women who hasn't gone under any kind of surgery be able to release/produce sperm without any medically transition or without any medicine?

Accepted Answer

: If a woman transitions to a man, even with surgery they will never produce sperm. A man who transitions to a woman will still produce sperm until they take enough estrogen and/or have surgery. Hope this answers your question. Good luck!

Question 7

how much does transgender surgery for hormones and breasts usually cost.

Accepted Answer

May be covered...: Check with your insurance plan to see if transgender surgeries are covered. Many employers provide for trans surgeries and hormone treatment through insurance. Otherwise, breast augmentation may run $10,000; genital surgery around $30,000 for vaginoplasty and much more for transmasculine surgeries - depending on the surgery involved. Hormone management may be provided by your MD. LGromkoMD

Question 8

if a transgender (female to male) had surgery to remove the breasts and lymph nodes, would this reduce the risk of breast cancer?

You would think so: But actually not proven.  Also, i doubt that the lymph nodes were removed.

Question 9

where do i go to find most cosmetic surgery before and after photos?

Accepted Answer

Doctor Websites: As a consumer, you should research several doctor websites and view their before and after photos looking for consistency in photography and patient results.  When researching your physician, make sure he or she is board certified.  Finally, talk with others and see who your friends recommend.

Question 10

i had rk surgery in the 80, s and now need catarac surgery how will that go    ?

Accepted Answer

Okay: Previous rk surgery makes predicting the implant powers difficult.  This means it is possible that you may need more than just one surgery to get your eye where it need to be.  Work with your eye surgeon and good luck!
