Hi Sir, I'm 19 year old male, but I want to change my gender as a girl, I even feel towards men. What should I do now? I'm ready to live as female.

Question

Hello lybrate-user! That's a brave decision and I appreciate your courage to acknowledge your identity as who you feel you are and not what others think. Changing the gender is not a problem as that's a social term. You may simply switch your gender socially by living like a girl and dressing like one. Onto an advance level if you may want to change your sex, you may have to go for a surgery and a hormonal therapy. The surgery is termed as 'Sex reassignment surgery' for which you may reach a plastic surgeon at a good nearby hospital who may guide you further about the same. Good luck :)
