क्यों और किन वजओ के कारण पुरुष लिंग, महिला लिंग में परिवर्तन कर रहे है ?

Loading

जब हम पैदा होते है, तो डॉक्टर आमतौर पर हमारा शरीर कैसा दिखता है, उसके आधार पर कहता है कि हम पुरुष है या महिला। जिन लोगों को जन्म के समय लड़के का लेबल दिया गया था, वे वास्तव में पुरुष के रूप में पहचाने जाते है, और जिन लोगों को जन्म के समय लड़की का लेबल दिया गया था, वे बड़े होकर महिला बन जाते है। लेकिन कुछ लोगों की लिंग पहचान- वे कौन है इसके बारे में उनका सहज ज्ञान- उनके जन्म के समय शुरू में अपेक्षित अपेक्षा से भिन्न होता है। इनमें से अधिकतर लोग खुद को ट्रांसजेंडर बताते है। 

जन्मपूर्व वातावरण में सेक्स हार्मोन पुरुष और महिला मस्तिष्क को अलग करते हैं। एक परिकल्पना का प्रस्ताव है कि ट्रांसजेंडर व्यक्ति भ्रूण के विकास के बाद के चरणों के दौरान सेक्स हार्मोन के असामान्य स्तर के संपर्क में आ सकते हैं, जिससे मस्तिष्क संरचनाएं जन्म के समय उनके लिंग के अनुरूप असामान्य हो जाती हैं। ट्रांससेक्सुअलिज्म में जन्मपूर्व न्यूरोएनाटोमिकल परिवर्तन शामिल होते हैं, इसका मनोवैज्ञानिक संबंध होता है, और यह सिज़ोफ्रेनिया और ऑटिज्म स्पेक्ट्रम विकारों के साथ अधिक प्रचलित पाया जाता है। बचपन की प्रतिकूलताएँ और उपेक्षा भी ट्रांसजेंडर पहचान से जुड़ी हुई हैं।

लिंग पहचान पुरुष, महिला या अन्य लिंग होने का एक गहरा व्यक्तिगत और आंतरिक अर्थ है, और यह आवश्यक रूप से जन्म के समय निर्दिष्ट लिंग के साथ संरेखित नहीं हो सकता है। ट्रांसजेंडर पुरुष अक्सर संक्रमण नामक प्रक्रिया से गुजरते हैं, जिसमें उनकी शारीरिक उपस्थिति, लिंग अभिव्यक्ति और कानूनी दस्तावेज को उनकी वास्तविक लिंग पहचान के साथ संरेखित करने के लिए सामाजिक, चिकित्सा और कानूनी कदम शामिल हो सकते हैं।

ट्रांसजेंडर के सामने प्रमुख चुनौतियाँ : 

  • शैक्षिक व्यवस्था और कार्यस्थल में भेदभाव
  • सामाजिक बहिष्कार और लाचारी
  • ट्रांसफ़ोबिया और मनोवैज्ञानिक तनाव से निपटना
  • कानूनी सुरक्षा की कमी और घृणा अपराधों के शिकार

क्या ट्रांस मैन गर्भवती बन सकता है ?

ट्रांसजेंडर पुरुष जैविक पुरुषों के साथ संभोग के माध्यम से गर्भवती हो सकते हैं, यहां तक कि हार्मोन रिप्लेसमेंट थेरेपी के दौरान भी, इसलिए अवांछित गर्भधारण से बचने के लिए सही गर्भनिरोधक आवश्यक है। व्यक्तियों और चिकित्सा पेशेवरों के बीच इस मुद्दे के बारे में जागरूकता बढ़ाने के लिए ट्रांसजेंडर यौन शिक्षा महत्वपूर्ण है। सभी ट्रांसजेंडर पुरुषों, विशेष रूप से गर्भाशय वाले लोगों के लिए प्रजनन योजना पर यौन गतिविधि के प्रकार या प्रजनन लक्ष्यों की धारणा के बिना नियमित अंतराल पर चर्चा की जानी चाहिए।

गर्भाशय और अंडाशय वाला कोई भी व्यक्ति गर्भवती हो सकता है। यदि आपके पास गर्भाशय नहीं है, तो गर्भाशय प्रत्यारोपण जैसी उभरती प्रौद्योगिकियां भविष्य में आपके लिए गर्भवती होना संभव बना सकती हैं। एक लड़का जो ट्रांस पुरष, जो दो गर्भधारण से गुजर चुका है, का कहना है कि कई डॉक्टर लोगों को गलत बताते है कि टेस्ट्रोस्ट्रॉन शुरू करने से वे बाँझ जो जायगे। जो पुरुष लोग अपने आप को औरत में बदलते है उनके लिए बच्चे को जन्म देना मुश्किल होता है क्योकि एक आदमी में मौजूद अंग उनका शरीर के अंदर कनेक्शन इतना नहीं बदला जा सकता के उनको पूरा औरत का रूप मिले।   

सामाजिक रूप से, ट्रांसजेंडर पुरुष अपनी लिंग पहचान को बेहतर ढंग से दर्शाने के लिए अपना नाम, स्वर्ण और प्रस्तुति बदलना चुन सकते है। कुछ लोग चेहरे पर बाल उगने और आवाज का गहरा होना जैसी माध्यमिक यौन विशेषताओं को प्रेरित करने के लिए टेस्टोस्टेरोन जैसी हार्मोन थेरेपी से गुजर सकते है। अन्य लोग अपने भौतिक शरीर को अपनी लिंग पहचान के साथ संरेखित करने के लिए छाती पुनर्निर्माण या जननांग पुनर्निर्माण जैसी सर्जरी करा सकते है।         

ट्रांस पुरुषों के लिए, प्रजनन विकल्पों में अपने साथी के शुक्राणु या दाता शुक्राणु का उपयोग करके अंडे और/या भ्रूण को फ्रीज करना (क्रायोप्रिजर्वेशन) शामिल है। ट्रांस पुरुष साथी या दाता के शुक्राणु का उपयोग करके अंतर्गर्भाशयी गर्भाधान से गुजर सकते है या उन्हें अपने, साथी या दाता के अंडों का उपयोग करके इन विट्रो निषेचन (आईवीएफ) की आवश्यकता हो सकती है। भ्रूण को उसके अपने गर्भाशय, उसके साथी के गर्भाशय या गर्भकालीन सरोगेट में स्थानांतरित किया जा सकता है।

Are Minors Eligible For Sex Change Therapy In India

Loading

If you are a minor willing to undergo Gender Change Surgery in India, there is good news for you. The World Professional Association for Transgender Health has revised the minimum age criteria, lowering it to 14. Hence Gender Transition surgery is possible for minors in India.

It is now possible for transgender kids to sign up for hormonal therapies by the age of 14. Although it is uncertain if minors can undergo SRS Surgery in India along with adults. Despite the risk which can happen while children experience such treatments, the transgender association still has agreed to pass this ordinance.

The New Developments 

According to the Association of Transgender Health, some sex change surgeries can be conducted between the age of 15 to 17. They also declared that hormonal therapy could be started among minors by age 14.

However, there are specific facts that you need to take care of before proceeding to such therapies. The same is due to considering minors immature and redundant in cognitive understanding.

Is Gender Transition Common among Minors

Gender Transition surgeries amongst minors are very rare. There is even no evidence that such things happened in the past. However, some sex change treatments are common amongst transgender youth in the United States. These include puberty blockers, estrogen blockers, and hormone therapy.

Is Gender Transition Effective on Minors?

Gender Transition is effective amongst everybody suffering from gender dysphoria, including minors. Early results of treatment have proven many advantages, Which include :

  1. better mental health
  2. decrease in depression
  3. lower anxiety. 

Will Gender Transition therapy be safe for Minors?

Minors can undergo gender transition surgery, but they still have their own risks, which are yet to be found. Surgery is, however, not a preferable option for minors as of now. However, many of them can undergo hormonal therapy, counseling, and social transition without any need for surgery. The possibility of surgery is also a topic of ongoing research and debate.

Thus, people should take any decision regarding such medical intervention amongst minors after considering each individual’s preferences.

Treatments Minors can undergo

The Endocrine Society and the World Professional Association of Transgender Health approve some guidelines. They are:

  1. Puberty Blockers: You can opt for these only after you go through some psychological tests. These block the brain from releasing hormones for sexual development.
  2. Hormonal therapy: If you go through puberty after puberty blockers, you can opt for the other gender. If not, you can go for Hormonal therapy. In this therapy, you consume manufactured estrogen or testosterone. These medications are available as tablets and injections, which you can take weekly.

In conclusion, Minors, as approved by doctors, can opt for hormonal therapies and other forms of medication in case they identify themselves as transgender people. 

But if they want to opt for gender transition surgery, they need to take care of certain things or wait till they turn 18 (as prescribed by doctors) to avoid any complications in their health. 

Understanding the transgender community is the need of the hour for the future. We need to act if we want to help the transgender in a true sense.

Does HRT Therapy Affect My Singing?

Loading

For transgender people undergoing gender transition, Hormone Replacement Therapy is a major step when they change their physical appearance with their gender identity. This therapy can impact the vocal range and quality, and it can be a concern for those who are singers or have a passion for music. 

When a transgender person wants to change gender into a self-identified gender, then it can take numerous SRS surgeries. SRS surgery means sex reassignment surgery, also known as gender-affirming surgery. It helps in balancing their appearance with their gender identity while reducing the procedures, including genital reconstruction, chest augmentation or reduction and facial feminization and masculinization. SRS surgery in India can help transgender people to live their life happily and comfortably with their gender. 

Understanding HRT and its Effects 

HRT stands for hormonal replacement therapy. It can assist transgender individuals in matching the way they look to their gender identification. This procedure uses essential hormones such as testosterone and estrogen for trans males or females. These hormones can change the body’s function, including vocal characteristics. 

Masculinizing HRT and voice changes 

When transgender males undergo hormonal replacement therapy, testosterone appears, which usually impacts voice qualities. Testosterone’s ability to stretch and thicken the vocal cords produces a lower-pitched voice. The natural thickening of the voice in male puberty and this process are identical. 

Feminizing HRT and voices changes

However, transgender women undergoing feminizing hormone therapy could only notice minor changes in their voice cords. Estrogen therapy does not change the structure of the vocal cords, but testosterone therapy can have a high impact on it. However, some people claim that their voices weaken or lose some of their vocal resonance as they age. Consult the doctor about Voice feminization surgery in India. Voice feminization surgery has a positive impact on transgender women

Timing and individual variations 

Each person experiences hormonal replacement therapy differently, both in terms of the level and speed of change. Numerous factors can affect outcomes, including age, genetic factors, the dosage and duration of therapy. When transgender individuals take hormonal therapy, they notice an earlier change in voice.

Singing through transition 

If you are thinking of taking hormonal replacement therapy, it can change your voice. It is crucial to remember that transitioning only sometimes means losing your voice abilities. Individuals can continue to follow their singing passion and learn to live with their evolving voice with patience, hard work and possibly guidance from vocal therapists. 

Vocal training and maintenance 

When you opt for SRS surgery in India, you keep doing vocal exercises and maintaining steps that can help to improve your singing voice. You can do some steps, such as 

  • Stay hydrated

Starting hydrated improves overall health and is essential for lubricated vocal cords. 

  • Vocal exercise

Vocal exercise regularly can help strengthen and maintain your voice. It also enhances vocal flexibility and control. 

  • Vocal training

You can discuss your vocal training with a professional voice therapist. They can help you develop new singing techniques and maintain your vocal health. 

  • Rest and avoid drug abuse

You can give proper rest to your voice, which can help to reduce the risk of stain and injury. You can avoid drug abuse, such as smoking and alcohol because it can harm your vocal cords. 

Seeking support and resource 

Navigating voice changes during transition can be difficult, but support networks and resources are available, such as online events, support groups or medical professionals who know the transgender experience. They provide proper support and advice.  

While your voice may alter during the transition, singing does not end. You can carry on sharing your voice with the world. Vocal training and maintenance can help keep your vocal cords healthy.
