  • maybe not full genitals but uterus/testicles might actually work and be easier, they do not need nerve attachments and might act as permanent HRT. wont be functional for reproduction or sex, but might make the patient no longer need to take pills injections.

    But unless we include nerve attachments for the tests trans men will never know what it feels to get kicked in the balls, which is probably for the best


  • I did not say that as a downer, just bringing up issues, which paradoxically, if this operation began (as soon as we get over the tissue incompatibility, which might not be a real issue just something that I think might be) both other issues will improve as more effort and investment is put in those operation.

    Would sort of suck for the people who want to do it the first few years (I am sure there are people who despite lack of sensitivity would prefer their desired genitals), But it will improve to the point that it might become reasonably mainstream.




  • It would be great and not a bad Idea, but there might be some issues that need to be considered:

    1. incompatibility, not like organ incompatibility that we consider with general organ donation, as having genitals from the opposite model (even from a perfect donor)will have tissues that your body has never seen and will likely trigger immune responses and will necessitates stronger immunosuppression than a normal organ donation. that will put the patient at much higher risk of diseases.

    2. Nerve connection,. Currently [genital]plasty doesn’t chop off the parts just reshapes the tissues harming the nerves as little as possible so they still work and feel stuff, a transplant will cut the nerves and reattaching them is extremely difficult, and never perfect, this will likely result in genitals with little to no sensitivity.

    3)scar tissue doesn’t stretch well, so pregnancy with a transplanted set. uterus transplant has been successfully done and can carry pregnancies though c section, but were talking about all the set, which might make it really hard to potentially impossible for the pregnancy to grow and expand. (might, I’m talking out of my ass in this point)

    not against the idea, just thinking of the current limitations,
