Female-to-male (FTM) transgender individuals may undergo gender confirmation surgery, also known as male chest reconstruction or phalloplasty, as part of their transition.

Here are some general aspects of gender reassignment surgery for FTM individuals:
⦁ Male Chest Reconstruction (Top Surgery):
⦁ Double Incision Mastectomy: This procedure involves removing breast tissue and excess skin to create a masculine chest contour. The nipples are usually resized and repositioned for a natural appearance.
⦁ Keyhole or Peri-Areolar Mastectomy: This procedure is suitable for individuals with smaller breasts. It involves removing the breast tissue through a small incision around the areola.
⦁ Phalloplasty:
⦁ Phalloplasty is a complex procedure that involves constructing a neophallus (new penis). It typically involves using tissue grafts, such as forearm, thigh, or abdominal tissue, to create the neophallus.
⦁ Urethral Lengthening: Urethral lengthening is often performed during phalloplasty to create a urethral passage for urination through the neophallus. This allows for a more natural urination experience.
⦁ Scrotoplasty: Scrotoplasty involves creating a scrotum to house testicular implants, providing a more masculine appearance.

It’s important to note that gender reassignment surgery is a complex and individualized process. The specific procedures, techniques, and outcomes may vary depending on the surgeon, the patient’s preferences, and individual circumstances.

Before undergoing any surgery, it’s crucial to consult with a qualified surgeon who specializes in transgender healthcare. They can assess your needs, discuss the available options, and provide personalized recommendations based on your specific goals and health considerations.

It’s also important to note that gender reassignment surgery is just one aspect of a comprehensive transition process. Other aspects may include hormone therapy, mental health support, legal documentation changes, and social transition. Each person’s journey is unique, and it’s essential to have open communication with healthcare professionals and support from the transgender community throughout the transition process.
