Only a small number of people with gender dysphoria have surgery to align their bodies with their desired sex — but the rate of complications is high.
One of the largest surveys of trans adults earlier this year indicated that one in six (16 percent) go under the knife to alter their physical appearance.
But research suggests that up to half of trans men and women suffer post-op issues or pain so severe they need medical attention or additional surgery months later.
The complex operations involve crafting the genitalia of the opposite sex using veins, arteries, muscles and skin from other body parts. The surgeries are risky due to surgeons having to connect delicate and complicated networks of blood vessels, as well as creating the ability to urinate.
For trans men, devices are often implanted to allow them to achieve erections and more enjoyable sexual experiences.
Sex change surgery rates have shot up in recent years, with one in six trans adults in the US opting to have gender-affirming surgery. The majority of those who go under the knife have genital surgery (84 percent between 2006-2011), but almost half of the people who have vagina construction surgery suffer complications years later. Most transmen (64 percent) who have penis construction surgery also have issues
So what is the percentage of sex change recipients that go on to commit suicide?
9:59 – I’d bet it’s high.
For those who grew up in and after the Harry Potter era, there’s no magic spell or potion, just pain and, most often, disability and regret.
