Hysterectomy - Female To Male Gender Change Surgery
The operation for removing the uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes is a hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. There is no requirement for any kind of visible scarring to do this procedure. For better outcomes, our Sex Change surgeon advised the transmen to combine this operation with top and bottom surgery. The methods that can be suggested are as follows:
- Chest masculinization
- Vaginal obliteration
- Phalloplasty (specially metoidioplasty)
- Scrotal reconstruction
What are the major reasons to perform hysterectomy with gender surgery ( MTF )?
The following are some of the main causes for the doctor's recommendation of hysterectomy:
- If a pap test cannot be performed due to an increased risk of cervical cancer, this procedure is advised.
- When abdominal pain becomes excessive—which is common—a hysterectomy is advised. This occurs as a result of testosterone beginning to tighten the muscles and ligaments nearby. Additionally, it may cause excessive cramping.
- It is also recommended if trans males are unable to engage in sexual activity. In this method, there will be less chance of unintentional pregnancy and transmission of disease.
- The surgery is most effective for treating endometriosis and enables the excision of cystic fibroids. Even then, hysterectomy is advised if a transmen complains bleeding.
- Internal anatomy and external identity can be better aligned with hysterectomy.
