Transgender is a term to describe a person who has a different gender identity to the s3x that a doctor assigned them at birth. Transgender is an umbrella term describing anyone who has a different gender identity to the one assigned at birth. Transitioning is the term to describe the various methods a person can use to affirm their gender. There are many different ways a person can transition, and one person’s transition can be completely different from another’s.
Medical transitioning can look different for each person depending on how they identify, but these interventions may involve medications such as hormones, surgeries, hair removal, or implant procedures, as well as speech therapy. Options for a person wanting to medically transition include hormone therapy and gender-affirming surgery.
A person can take different forms and dosages of hormones to help their body align with their gender identity. Gender-affirming surgery involves a person undergoing surgery to alter their body to align with their gender identity.
A transgender person can be any gender identity and have any sexual orientation. A transgender person also does not need to transition to be the gender that they are. However, there are many options available to a person who does want to transition.
